Benefits Memes

OMG, the ETERNAL TECH INTERVIEW DANCE! 💃 HR thinks they're conducting a sophisticated talent search while candidates are DESPERATELY trying to figure out if the company offers basic human necessities! The absolute DRAMA of it all! HR: "We need passionate code warriors who BLEED our company values!" Candidates: "But do you have health insurance so I don't ACTUALLY bleed to death?" It's like two people speaking completely different languages while trapped in the same Zoom call! One's hunting for ping-pong-loving code monkeys, the other's just trying to avoid weekend slavery. The AUDACITY of both sides thinking the other one cares about their priorities! The solution? Actually TALK to each other like humans instead of corporate robots performing a ritual mating dance. REVOLUTIONARY CONCEPT!

The joke here is that the pie chart shows the "Benefits of working in IT in 2025" with a legend listing Salary, Wellness, Stable mental health, and Confidence for your future... but none of the colors in the legend actually appear in the chart. Classic bait-and-switch that hits too close to home. Seven years in the industry and I've seen enough "wellness programs" that consist of a single yoga session and free pizza to know this isn't far from reality. The chart is basically saying "here are all the benefits you were promised" while showing completely different data—just like how your job description never matches what you actually do. Pro tip: The real benefits of IT are unlimited coffee and the ability to blame everything on "network issues."
