It’s an arms race, it’s all silly and I mostly have made the choice of not participating, even if it’s definitely making my career harder, but if you are trying to participate, what else are you gonna do when everyone else is doing it I guess?
Be honest about your skills, then when you get a job (might take longer) its so easy you can spend like 90% of your day looking at memes and management still praise your output. Sure the pay isn’t the best as I am not pushing higher, but work life balance is great. I had 3 lunch breaks yesterday. Still earn more than enough to live comfortably.
I have been here for almost half a decade. While I can keep this up I am never leaving.

It feels so fucking icky. I feel everything related to finding work and presenting oneself to find work fucking degrading.
