Just watched “Dungeons & Dragons: Among Thieves” and I have to say this is an underrated, fun and hilarious fantasy joyride. Really sad I missed it in theatres. Go watch it! #movies #DnD #vfx
@barnes gotcha, thanks for the info, I took the week off from applying but I’ll start looking for those positions on Monday!
@gristle "Software Engineer in Test" "SDET" "Quality Assurance Engineer". I used the term 'associate' to find entry level positions. I was with my first company for a year before I bit the recruiters bait and doubled my salary with a new position. Not sure what the market is like now but that was ~3 years ago now.
@barnes Do you have an example of a title I should be on the lookout for? Thanks for replying btw!
@gristle Don't be afraid of QA roles. They can be an easy in to the industry. Worked for me transitioning from teaching into software!

Gettin real down on myself about the job hunt, #webdev

Any suggestions? Coming from a career in IT, currently between jobs, looking to lock down my first junior role. I'm coming out of a private mentorship. Is the market as terrible as my last 2 months of sending my resume into a black hole makes it seem?

@gamingonlinux MAN do I wish I could afford to buy a new model. I love my Steam Deck.
One of the things I hate the most is when people say, “You gotta be X hours in and then it is really great!” If you have to wait for a game to get good then, in my opinion, it is not a very good game. I want to have fun right from the beginning.
Dude same with shows. I’m sorry but if I have to watch a whole season before it gets good I’m not watching. I respect my time, they should too.
@chrisbensen xcrement, imo!
