Hiring Memes

Technical interviews these days are basically survival combat with a grizzly bear while the actual job is just playing with Winnie the Pooh. Nothing says "modern tech hiring" like being mauled by algorithm questions you'll never use again, only to spend your career copying from Stack Overflow and asking ChatGPT to explain regex. The bear should be wearing a "Binary Tree Traversal" t-shirt for accuracy.

That moment when your face physically contorts from the pain of reviewing an intern's code, only to discover HR wants to hire them permanently . It's like finding a production database with no backups and realizing the CTO thinks it's "innovative." The horror intensifies when you remember you'll be maintaining that spaghetti code long after the "vibe-coding" wunderkind has moved on to their next unsuspecting victim. The real pandemic isn't viral—it's nested ternary operators with no comments!

THE AUDACITY of job listings these days! 😤 The top panel shows some corporate suit LYING through his teeth with "You don't need to have the skills of an entire dev team" while the bottom panel reveals the BRUTAL truth: "If those kids could read they'd be very upset." Every. Single. Job. Posting. Ever. Wants a "full-stack ninja rockstar unicorn wizard" who can somehow do the work of 17 people for entry-level pay! The disconnect is so catastrophic it should have its own disaster relief fund! Meanwhile, all of us developers are just standing there like Bobby Hill, clutching our single programming language and wondering if we should have learned Kubernetes, React, and quantum physics before breakfast. THE HORROR!

Ah, the classic corporate brainstorming session where everyone's looking for shortcuts except the one person suggesting the obvious solution. Low-code, AI, buzzwords galore—but nobody wants to hear "just hire someone who knows what they're doing." That dev getting thrown out the window represents every competent engineer watching their company chase shiny tech instead of proper staffing. The real punchline? Six months later they'll hire three devs anyway, but only after burning through the budget on half-baked AI solutions that generated more bugs than features.
