<hr> |
|
|
|
<p>2020 was a crazy and challenging year. Millions of people lost their jobs |
|
|
|
and thousands lost loved ones. But not me. Not just that, I work in an |
|
|
|
industry where I can safely say that most of us didn't really have such a |
|
|
|
terrible 2020 all things considered. Yeah, the pandemic sucks and for |
|
|
|
those of us with kids at home home office was challenging for sure. But |
|
|
|
really just compare that with the experience people have and had that are |
|
|
|
not in such a privileged position.</p> |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>And it's not just that programmers and IT folks in general had very little |
|
|
|
to complain about when it comes to the pandemic, we're a really, really |
|
|
|
privileged bunch <em>in general</em>. We get preferred visa treatment which |
|
|
|
makes us one of the most mobile work forces, our profession is universally |
|
|
|
recognized even if we did not actually get a degree, we can work from home |
|
|
|
and we're monetarily compensated in a way that even juniors coming from a |
|
|
|
few month training will out-earn many studied professions.</p> |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>With all that money come a lot of inflated egos. This has always been a |
|
|
|
weird thing but over the last year it has really started to annoy me how |
|
|
|
tone deaf some folks are about their personal situation. All that money |
|
|
|
buys you a ton that many can only dream of. You can use that money to |
|
|
|
retire early, that money buys you the freedom to start your own company, |
|
|
|
that money is often enough money to get more money from investors.</p> |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>It's nice that people can do that, but the nonchalant way in which this is |
|
|
|
presented online really starts to give my profession an awful reputation. |
|
|
|
Some of you might think that it's great you are all angel investors and |
|
|
|
serial entrepreneurs who work on dodgy immigration arrangements from |
|
|
|
different places in the world, who network on the latest and greatest |
|
|
|
social apps, share their lifestyle in their podcast armed with that fancy |
|
|
|
latte and craft beer and who are making a brand out of themselves.</p> |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<p>I just have one ask: when you do that, be humble and reflect on your |
|
|
|
situation. Most people are not <a class="reference external" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3LopI4YeC4I&t=70s">that lucky</a>.</p> |
