Working in IT is by far the quickest way to get rich

[Deleted member 23017]

I live in a post soviet piece of shit country BUT I am an azure admin and for my country I am by far easily within the top 20% non-C-suite highest earners.

Cons of the job: fucking exhausting. I can barely function after 8 hours of work. I find I don't really recuperate over the weekend either. Plus this is literally the only way I can sustain myself financially since both my parents are broke despite having law and medical degrees, ffs these 2 fucking subhumans...

I have cousin who works in IT and he doubled his earnings in less than 2 years. Problem is, he has to work 7.5h a day for 6 days a week, but it takes him 10h+ sometimes.

Why is it so exhausting?

 

[bignosesmallchin]

Is IT hard to get into? Also I thought IT guys barely do any actual work, how is it exhausting?

It DEPENDS.

If it is a startup, you will be working like

getting "startup salary" (below market) and "great young team" (other idiots like you)

If it is a large corporation, you will work at most 5 hours a week... and get 5 times as much money...

But the CATCH is: diversity training, and it is hard to get in there...

How is it hard to get in? What is diversity training? Teaching you how to work with curries?

No. Corporate-culture-courses, and other similar shit. Every company has their own.

Well, try to get to GOogle you will know

its probably the least exhausting/tiring job possible since youre just on a computer all day and you can WFH most of the time too so no commuting

FUCK

 

[latincell95]

FUCK

You'll do just fine Jamal

 

[fjor2096]

FUCK

You're literally black

 

[Artemis]

FUCK

Actually, IMO, this sucks more for black people than white people... I watch these lectures like 1 hour... and forget about it..

But for an ethnic... kinda sitting there, listening to this "inclusion" and "friendship" lecture, where they are forcing "in disguise" white people kiss your ass

Moreover, since they do not have separate times for this, ethnics are usually joined together with LGBTQ+... so you have to listen how "everyone should ba friends", "love each other", and then point at a single black guy in the room, and a transgender near him

Also, when you leave the room, Nerdics will still silently discriminate you in everyday life... so much for training

It is mentally draining.

It kills your brain. You can understand only after you solved a difficult ticket in a day. You kinda "sit" but it is very mentally draining as @Mouthbreath said.

This is the reason many IT guys dont even think about women after work: no brain energy anymore. The only thing to do: watch some Anime and fall asleep.

Starting work at 8am is pretty normal
