Maybe today I will get to work on what I am supposed to work on.

The job market is such a shit show right now. You would think hiring would be easy, but the hiring process has been taken over by bean counters who think salaries should go down because their are so many people looking, HR drones trying to hold on to power as they offer nothing of value in the hiring process, sloperator managers whose heads and asses have become even more indistinguishable, and neurotypical extroverted tech-bro wannabe executives who want everybody in the office to stoke their egos. As a developer trying to hire developers it sucks, and as a developer looking for a job it is a nightmare.

    The best chance of getting a job is probably networking, but everybody is too burned out to do that. We need local neurodivergent-only casual tech networking meetings.

    But even if I find somebody I want to hire, it is almost impossible (see parent comment).

    Yeah networking is where I fail. I just do not know people and have no idea how to connect with people.
    So I just find every job ad I can find and apply there. But then they get absolutely mad when you do that. „What about our company specifically made you apply here“ because you are looking for a backend dev and I am really good at that fuck off I shouldn’t need a justification beyond that.
    I am so fucking unfit for this world it’s beyond hilarious
