I have 1.5yrs of exp in Angular. If I attend an interview, can I solve the DS/Logic problems in other language like python. Because for problem solving while comparing to Js I'm good with python.

I’m kinda into Bluey’s mom.
New to Fishbowl?

True, but easy to make money without being smart or talented.
What got me through this industry once burn out happened is my rearrangement of priorities where before my work defined me as a person, but now my work is just financing the person I want to be.
I feel the same way. I just have no earthly idea what else I could do for work.
This is all I know how to do. And even though it sucks I think I'd hate most other jobs even more.
I won’t stop complaining until this changes. This isn’t just about myself. So many friends and people here are dividing the same sentiment as I did. I’m sure we have a very high skill set and talent, but agencies and leaders are forgetting about the human side on people’s routine. My bosses are discussing if they need to make the font uppercase or lower in the very first slide of the deck, it’s insane.
Have you ever had a career in any other industry? Finance, teaching, public service, supply chain management, anything?
The grass isn’t greener. I may be ashamed of my output because my sister is a schoolteacher and I’m plaguing the world with ads. But she goes through 10x more hell for half the pay. My best friend is a cop, and a damn good dude, but everyone fucking hates him right now cause he’s a cop, imagine going through that shit. Mother has PTSD for being a paramedic 30 years ago. My father’s job has him sleeping in airports at least once a month
This is not the worst industry. It can suck ass for sure, but micromanagement and shit feedback is not unique to the ad industry
I agreed. I always worked as a creative, and you are right about this comparison, but some stuff happen and it’s hard to believe that people act like you were their slaves or if their personal opinion matters on the top of client’s work.
Yeah, so am I.
You all need to go see a therapist. Also, why would you ever want to sustain a disgusting work culture that’s decades old? Evolve or die... and that includes your outdated way of thinking how to do work. It ain’t the old days cause obvi the old ways sucked A.
But have you been to the single consultants bowl?
Let’s all form an agency.
My friend had a bar like that. People will order fries and get wings instead.
- I thought you looked hungrier.
If I was there in person I'd slap you and yell "SNAP OUT OF IT". Look for a better place to work. I've worked at a couple shit holes but also for some amazing places. You need to grow up.
Your misunderstanding of the word “narcissism” is showing sweetie haha
