>Got laid off 5 months ago
>impossible to find a new job
>tech layoffs keep increasing
I'm at my last $5000 in emergency savings and rent is $2500. I can't get out of the lease until June.
Should I sell my guns?
>got a bunch of gucci custom glocks
>A couple daniel defense AR's
>2 tactical marlin leverguns
>a staccato 2011
>2 dan wesson 1911's
which one should i sell first?
sell your butthole
brother my mortgage is only $625 a month and I'm building equity. listen to you should start sucking and fricking for pay
The fricking glocks except for your favorite. I'd try to keep the shit on any of them you really like because selling "custom" guns is never worth it. The tactical marlins too. Keep your 2 DD ARs.
Dude just get some kind of job if you're not doing anything, like anything. It doesn't matter if it's just some bullshit office job, just leave it when you get a good job offer.
That sucks. Can you move in with parents or apply to jobs in other areas? Depending on the field it can take 3 months to bring you in even if they know they want you.
Has a point, find something. Search around for other similar names of professions like yours. There's a few in my field that gave the position a name I was unfamiliar with.
>selling guns
>ever
Frick ya mudda
2500$ chirst anon should have moved in with mom and dad 5 months ago. Maybe you wouldn't have to sell them.
Thank you for the job Saar
>Thank you for the job Saar
This. Some lying jeet or paki with a fake CV and fake degree.
why the frick are you living somewhere that has $2500/mo rent? fricking moron
You realize you are talking to some silicon valley redditor who got fired from news or HR offices.
more like a techbro who fell for hypebeast memes
Never sell a gun OP. Just to keep yourself going get a part time job, retail fast food anything. Being in employment will only help you find employment
>don't sell your range toys
>go frick up your resume work history by working at mcdonalds
Delusional
or just don't report it on your resume and make up some bullshit about enjoying the chance to take a break and do some personal projects, but now your ready to get back into the office and collaborate with your peers.
>got a bunch of gucci custom glocks
>a staccato 2011
>2 dan wesson 1911's
You'll never get what you paid for them when they were new. Honestly, just do a side hustle. You can get money by baking small cakes and selling them, dog sitting, tutoring, prostitution, uber, etc.
>You'll never get what you paid for them when they were new.
this, OP should have invested in NFA milsurps instead of tacticool USPSA competition larper garbage
I wasn't trying to make anyone feel bad about their gun purchase I merely implied that selling guns is like selling cars, unless its a collectable the values only go down.
What's the security deposit? It might be more worth it to break the lease, sell your furniture, and move out, especially for $2500 cash burn. Your guns are only going to buy you like 3 months of expenditures in whatever high rent hellhole you live in when they could go much further in some midwest shithole while you keep hunting for a job.
If a lease has a breaking clause, it's usually a couple months of rent.
If it doesn't have a breaking clause, you don't just forfeit security deposit, you're still liable legally for remainder of lease term
3 months is a lot if time
learn to mine coal
none of your guns are special, just sell and replace later with whatever hypebeasts garbage you are drooling over then..
>sell gun
>get a few hundred dollars, maybe a couple Gs
>use gun to rob bank
>get rich
Be smart and leverage your assets wisely for the highest returns.
Wtf did you do? I’m getting plenty of recruiter spam, unlike 2023.
There are massive layoffs in tech, supposedly because tech companies want to lower the price of labor. They're hiring for same positions but offering half the money.
>There are massive layoffs in tech
Didn't AI help cause this. I heard one programmer with Ai can do the job of three programmers without AI
>I heard one programmer with Ai can do the job of three programmers without AI
It's closer to one programmer using a LLM being able to do the job of 0.75 of a programmer without. You spend more time trying to fix the shit the LLM spews out than it would take to actually code the shit yourself.
lol, no
at best it makes some smaller things easier, maybe troubleshooting easier, but for private code bases it's not going to do much for you. it can't make architecture decisions really. lot of companies also don't want to (or can) shove their private information into a public AI, so they'll opt to use worse versions they host themselves (like us) which ends up pretty useless most of the time
the biggest help is mostly that it can just help me come up with clever solutions i might not have thought of, but realistically I still have to write code, make architecture decisions and do project shit myself
I am well aware, the layoffs were much worse last year.
It shits out mostly correct boilerplate. The productivity gains are marginal, since most top end swe work has real world nuance that the llm doesn’t capture. Coding takes up a pretty small amount of time, relative to figuring out what you should be coding. Or even better figuring out what to remove.
>The productivity gains are marginal.
>You spend more time trying to fix the shit the LLM spews out than it would take to actually code the shit yourself.
Cool,, I'm glad AI isn't the cause. Forgive me for asking, but what was the cause of all the layoffs then?
I'm not 100% sure, but a lot of people say it's due to companies hiring way more than they needed during the pandemic, especially for things like the "Metaverse" bullshit, which didn't pan out.
Could have something to do with interest rates
>I am well aware, the layoffs were much worse last year.
the layoffs were bad last year, and while they slowed down layoffs they haven't picked up hiring
The company I work for is hiring. And the recruiter spam seems to indicate others are too. However it’s not 2021 levels. Doesn’t seem so bad for >5yoe
>Doesn’t seem so bad for >5yoe
well there's the problem, entry level and beginners getting rekt
to find a new job
