Experience requirements Memes

When the job posting says "Junior Developer - 0-2 years experience" but also requires "Expert in 17 frameworks, machine learning, quantum computing, and ability to debug code by smell alone." That's how we end up with this 55-year-old "junior" looking like he's seen some shit. By 2025, entry-level positions will require you to have invented time travel just to acquire the necessary experience. The name tag is just the cherry on top - "AI Technician" because apparently, that's what we're calling "copy-pasting from Stack Overflow with extra steps" these days.

Oh how the tables have turned! 😂 Remember 2020? Companies were practically THROWING money and training at anyone who could spell "HTML." Fast forward to 2024 and they want you to be a walking tech encyclopedia with 10 years experience in tools that existed for 5, security clearance higher than the president, and they'll generously offer you $22/hour for the privilege! The tech hiring pendulum swung so hard it broke off and flew into space! The best part? That job posting expired before they even finished typing their impossible wishlist!

The tech industry's time paradox in pixel-perfect form! Entry-level jobs that somehow require you to have been coding since the Nixon administration. Grandpa's been slinging COBOL since 1959 and even HE can't land a job. Meanwhile, recruiters want junior devs with 10 years of experience in a 3-year-old framework. The only true entry-level position is apparently "time traveler with programming skills." Maybe we should all just learn COBOL and wait for the legacy systems to have their revenge!
