Basically suicide is the only option for them (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3519896&forum_id=2#32574119) |

Date: February 8th, 2017 1:56 PM Author: aromatic primrose church clown why should they epect to remain software developers their entire life? Unless your a John Carmack level programmer, you should jump into management. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3519896&forum_id=2#32574189) |

Date: February 8th, 2017 1:57 PM Author: Shimmering fluffy hairy legs boiling water Lol middle managers are the most expendable of all. They produce nothing of value and are first to go when layoffs hit. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3519896&forum_id=2#32574201) |

Date: February 8th, 2017 1:57 PM Author: Vengeful athletic conference chapel What? We even hire retired tech people for consulting projects.

|
Date: February 8th, 2017 1:59 PM Author: Shimmering fluffy hairy legs boiling water Yeah these consulting gigs dont pay the mortgage (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3519896&forum_id=2#32574219) |
|
Date: February 8th, 2017 2:00 PM Author: Vengeful athletic conference chapel LOL. I'm hoping they have those paid and they do it for extra income.
It's not great money, but pays $50-$75 an hour for 3-6 month contracts. Not bad if you want to work for just part of the year. |

Date: February 8th, 2017 2:02 PM Author: idiotic ratface Meanwhile non-equity partners are bringing in 400k+ at that point in their careers (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3519896&forum_id=2#32574244) |

Date: February 8th, 2017 2:05 PM Author: idiotic ratface Non-equity "partner" is really more like senior associate. Partners are making 1mm+ (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3519896&forum_id=2#32574268) |
|
Date: February 8th, 2017 2:06 PM Author: red histrionic stain Yeah but you need to eat shit from kike partners for 60 hours a week. Does not seem worth $400k, or even double that. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3519896&forum_id=2#32574275) |

Date: February 8th, 2017 2:08 PM Author: idiotic ratface Ok what do you think biglawyers with 15+ years experience are making? Do you think it's more than programmers? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3519896&forum_id=2#32574294) |
|
Date: February 8th, 2017 2:13 PM Author: Vengeful athletic conference chapel I don't think most lawyers end up as "biglawyers" with 15 years experience. Nor do I think the people that start out in biglaw do either.
It's really a moot point. |
|
Date: February 8th, 2017 2:03 PM Author: aromatic primrose church clown Yeah, there are some who do this for 6 months and travel the world the other 6.
tech doesnt give a shit about resume gaps as long as you keep current, unlike LAWL where you will be DONE HERE. |

Date: February 8th, 2017 2:11 PM Author: Shimmering fluffy hairy legs boiling water I warned many of these people and they didn't listen. Now they send out "feelers" looking for jobs. Wont even be able to pay their property tax. Many are done here and suicide or fake death is the best bet (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3519896&forum_id=2#32574321) |
