Parental advice Memes

The tables have turned! After decades of philosophers being told "good luck finding a job," now they're smugly watching the software industry implode with layoffs, AI replacing entry-level devs, and 300 applicants fighting for each position. That "philosophy factory" joke hits different when you're on your fifth technical assessment for a junior role that requires 7 years of experience in a 3-year-old framework. Maybe Socrates had it right all along—true wisdom is knowing you'll never pass the hiring manager's impossible requirements.

The beautiful irony that parents never saw coming. While mom lectures about how computer time won't lead to employment, software engineers are silently making six figures by... *checks notes*... staying on computers all day. That awkward monkey puppet side-eye perfectly captures the internal dialogue: "Should I tell her that's literally my entire job description, or just nod and go back to my 'useless' coding?" The greatest generational plot twist since discovering avocado toast doesn't actually prevent homeownership.
