Maybe I Can But I Won't

That moment when someone learns you're in "computer science" and immediately assumes you're tech support. Sure, I can reverse a binary tree, implement a neural network, and debug race conditions, but no, I have absolutely no idea why your laptop makes that weird clicking sound. I mean, I could look at it, but that would set a dangerous precedent where I become everyone's personal Geek Squad. My algorithm for handling these requests is simple: blank stare, slight smirk, change subject.

An Application We Just Received... There Is Going To Be A Bit Of A Learning Curve, But At Least He Is Willing To Relocate

Ah yes, the classic career pivot from "truck driver" to "Senior Full Stack Solutions Architect / Team Lead." Because obviously, if you can back up an 18-wheeler, you can definitely architect microservices! This is the tech industry equivalent of applying to be a brain surgeon because you're really good at Operation. The recruiter's going to need a full stack of patience for this one. At least the confidence is admirable – maybe we should hire this person to handle our production deployments. They clearly aren't afraid of crashes!

The Stack Hub Be Like

GitHub is all professional and polished, looking like it just stepped out of a corporate photoshoot. StackOverflow is giving you that knowing smirk—it's seen some things, answered some questions, probably roasted a few newbies who didn't format their code properly. Then there's your actual code, which looks like it was drawn by someone having a fever dream during a hackathon at 4 AM. The reality is that your GitHub repos look pristine with their README files and organized commits, while StackOverflow solutions seem elegant and well-thought-out. But when you actually open your codebase? It's a Frankenstein's monster of copy-pasted snippets, TODO comments from 2019, and functions named "doTheThing2_FINAL_actuallyFinal_v3". The gap between what your code looks like in your head versus what it actually is could fit the entire JavaScript ecosystem in it.
