Software Engineering Interviews
Oh. My. GOD. The absolute TRAGEDY of tech interviews in one perfect image! 😭 You spend WEEKS mastering how to trace an umbrella for the technical test, only to face the NIGHTMARE of carving intricate fractals during the interview. Then you get the job and what do they have you do? Draw a TRIANGLE. A LITERAL TRIANGLE. The tech industry is GASLIGHTING us, sweetie! We're out here solving theoretical binary tree inversions while the actual job is updating button colors and restarting servers. The AUDACITY! 💅

Time Traveler's Interview Fail
Reality check for time travelers: fantasizing about impressing ancient people with your coding skills until someone asks a basic data structures question. Turns out knowing how to reverse a binary tree is actually useful somewhere—just not in your imaginary sermon on the mount. The ultimate programmer humility check isn't a whiteboard interview at Google, it's being exposed as a fraud in 33 AD.

Added To My Resume After Ten Minutes Of Coding
The instant transformation from coding noob to "seasoned polyglot" is a sacred developer tradition. Copy-paste a "Hello World" example, struggle with the compiler for 20 minutes, then suddenly you're "proficient" in Rust on LinkedIn. The Squirtle squad here perfectly represents junior devs strutting into interviews with their resume listing 17 languages they've used exactly once. Meanwhile, hiring managers are desperately trying to find someone who actually knows how to reverse a linked list without Googling it first.

Paper Coding Won't Make You A Programmer
Ah yes, the classic university delusion where professors think coding on dead trees somehow prepares you for real development. Nothing says "industry-ready" like frantically scribbling syntax errors you can't compile, while the real world uses IDEs with autocomplete, Stack Overflow, and the sweet embrace of copy-paste. Four years of education and somehow they missed the memo that programmers haven't coded on paper since punch cards went extinct. But sure, let's pretend your handwritten bubble sort algorithm without syntax highlighting is preparing the next generation of tech innovators.

If It Works It Works
Oh. My. GOD! The absolute AUDACITY of this solution! 💀 Instead of writing some fancy algorithm to find the minimum value, this coding rebel just SORTED THE ENTIRE ARRAY and grabbed the first element! The interviewer's face is going through the five stages of grief in 0.2 seconds! It's like showing up to a marathon in a taxi and asking "where's my medal?" Sure, it technically works, but at what cost? THE COMPUTATIONAL COMPLEXITY, KAREN! THE COMPLEXITY! But hey, the code runs, the answer is correct, and sometimes that's all that matters in this cruel, cruel world of programming interviews. Work smarter not harder, I guess?

Look At Me, I'm The Developer Now
Oh. My. GOD. The absolute AUDACITY of these ChatGPT-wielding imposters! 💅 They waltz into interviews like "I'm a programmer" with their chest puffed out, but when asked about actual languages they know? *dramatic gasp* They whisper "ChatGPT" and suddenly everyone loses their minds! It's like showing up to a knife fight with a spork and expecting to be taken seriously! The coding community is LITERALLY having a collective aneurysm watching people who couldn't write a for-loop to save their lives claiming developer status because they can prompt an AI. Honey, asking ChatGPT to code for you doesn't make you a programmer any more than asking Siri for directions makes you a cartographer!

Why Don't They Just Say The Fricking Dress Code
The classic tech interview ambush! You're told "come as you are" for the interview, so you show up in your comfy black hoodie and jeans like a proper developer. Meanwhile, the interviewer is sitting there in full business attire looking at you like you just committed a merge conflict to production. This is the software engineering equivalent of a trap card. The unwritten rule of tech interviews: dress code is simultaneously "casual" and "business professional" until observed, existing in a quantum superposition that collapses into "wrong" the moment you make a choice.

Memory Is All You Need
Ah, the modern tech interview process in its final form. History major memorizes 500 LeetCode questions and gets hired at FAANG without knowing how to code. Meanwhile, senior devs with 10 years experience get rejected because they couldn't reverse a binary tree on a whiteboard fast enough. The system works perfectly. No notes.
