I don’t think waking up for work should feel like prepping for battle…probably a red flag 🤔

every single tech idea is like “soon our robots will be capable of playing catch with your kid, freeing you up to spend more time working on your employers’ spreadsheets”

Never thought about how much work a following feed would take tbh…makes sense

It is the best feed tho so thank you for putting in the work 🫡

I love horror so much! I hope you enjoy them!

I feel for your wife, I lose all the time with adults at work. Cannot imagine how sick I’d be all the time if I had a toddler lmao

Somehow the problems of the world seem a tiny bit smaller when you’re playing a cozy, survival game about a mouse trying to make it through the winter 😌🤍

In California union welders seem to be able to make 6 figures plus OT. So it seems like the money can be good but yea idk if I am actually capable of doing a job that physical, I’ve never tried before…

Also, I’ve never been a morning person and laborers are often up at like 3am 😭

True, I have to remind myself not to think the worst (it’s in my nature to see the bad first lol)

It’s just the conversations we’re having at my job are already “a human understands this but not AI, do it for the AI to understand” and it’s not great…we just have to wait and see ig

I have a lot of worries about what my job is going to look like when code is written for AI and not for humans anymore, idk if “maintainable” is the right word

It’s hard for me to imagine what that future looks like rn but it’s definitely making me uneasy the way my bosses are implementing it

Thank you! I can't wait to play as the adorable lil Boris 😍

Trades are also apparently not doing great rn? Idk man it’s really starting to seem like the only solution is “hurry up and die” because we’ve built a system where we can’t get the things we need/want without money and we can’t get money cause people aren’t considered worth the cost 🫠

I see pieces like this a lot, often w/ a spin of lamenting cultural degeneration, but reading is a LABOR issue, it’s declined because so many people are working overtime or two jobs & employers expect after hours work. France has Earth’s highest reading rate b/c long lunch breaks & labor protections

What’s stopping you?

For me it’s the fact I’m a woman and I’ve never been active/physical as a job, legit worried I couldn’t hack it…oh and the initial pay cut lol takes a couple years to get a livable wage…60k single in LA is not livable

Eyyy same brain cell! What path were you considering? I was looking at joining a union apprenticeship, get paid to learn and all that. Thinking SMART union cause physically I could do the work

Boilermakers looks cool but extreme…the only one that looked the least interesting to me was the UA lol

SwtBeat 🔜 TwitchCon @swtbeat.bsky.social · 8d

Tech is dying so what if I pivot to welding? I may be 5’6”, 115lbs, and built like a USB stick...but maybe that’s exactly what the trades need 🤔

Also, I've heard working with my hands could fix me
