Technical interviews Memes

When your technical interview prep feels like protection against getting completely screwed by the industry. These LeetCode condoms are the perfect metaphor for what the platform actually does - gives you a false sense of security while the algorithm problems still manage to f*ck you anyway. At least now you can say "I was prepared" while crying in the rejection email corner.

Ah, the classic flight path of a developer's career. Top panel: "Sure, I'll learn any programming language, no problem!" *airplane flies straight toward destination*. Bottom panel: *immediate U-turn* "Wait, you mentioned algorithms and data structures?" The confidence of saying you'll learn Python disappears faster than free pizza at a standup meeting when someone mentions Big O notation. Suddenly that flight needs to make an emergency landing back at Tutorial Island.

Someone's keyboard F key is clearly working fine because they just dropped a massive F-bomb on DSA (Data Structures & Algorithms). The rage is palpable—solving 500 leetcode problems only to end up jobless with a broken keyboard is the tech equivalent of training for the Olympics and then tripping on your shoelaces during the opening ceremony. What's hilarious is the stark contrast between academic coding interviews ("implement zigzag BFS") and actual job requirements ("fix this button" or "why API broken?"). It's like being trained to perform heart surgery but then getting hired to apply band-aids. The broken English just makes it more authentic—like reading the frustrated diary of every international developer who's been put through the algorithmic meat grinder only to discover the real job is mostly Stack Overflow searches and crying quietly in the bathroom.

Ah, the vicious cycle of tech interviews. You spend weeks memorizing quicksort implementations that you'll never use in production, only to get hired and inflict the same algorithmic hazing on the next generation of developers. It's like learning elaborate medieval torture techniques just so you can become the torturer. And we wonder why our codebases are full of npm packages that sort arrays.
