Sorry to hear that and I’m sure you’ll bounce back quickly.

Let me start by suggesting that if you can, take a week off so you can get in the right headspace for getting ready again to get out there again (if you can afford the time).

Is your resume up to date? If it isn’t, start by refreshing it so that you can start passing it along. If it’s not, use ChatGPT or any other LLM to help with this.

Do you have any friends at other companies or other people in your professional network? They might not be able to get you a job, but if they can cut through the first round of the cycle, that might make things easier.

Are you looking for the same type of job? If you are, are there any other skills/certificates that you can pick up to bolster your background?

Are you open to only staying in the same city or is moving elsewhere on the table? Assuming it’s the right thing to do for you/your family economically, perhaps a job in one city might be easier to acquire than where you are.

The last thing I’d ask you to keep at the top of your head is there is no shame in taking a lower paying job to keep yourself fed/clothed/housed. You know the saying, it’s always easier to look for a job when you have one.

Keep your positivity!

An LLM is a Large Language Model, which is a fancy way to say that a computer was given a bunch of information across the internet and can reference it quickly to give you an answer.

This will help a bit with what I was describing to update/refresh your resume (it’s a bit long but has some good points).

When you’re incredibly tired, anywhere is a good place to catch up on some sleep.

A bunch of kids just chant “red squad” over and over again.

The Double (2011) with Richard Gere.

It even had articles written about it.

You know, even though I think you approached in good faith, the moderator team over there has probably changed a lot, especially with Reddit now being public.

It wouldn’t surprise me if certain stories are suppressed because of how much attention/views Reddit as a whole can draw (and potentially influence).

I take it you haven’t had the opportunity to meet anyone that grew up on the southern USA.

“Get” would be absolutely be colloquial for what you said.

I’m pretty fond of “Claire de Lune”

I’ve always thought this was a pretty good one:

real G’s move in silence like lasagna

buycurious ,

It’s a metaphor.

The “g” is silent in the pronunciation of lasagna.

This gives the meaning that “real gangsters” operate silently.

There is Blind (I think by Team Blind).

It's kinda wild that zombo.com still exists (www.zombo.com)

zombo.com was launched in 1999. I remember in high school you’d see the new fancy web kiosk’s the school put up just displaying it as a joke. and being locked out of the address bar so you couldn’t change it. The fact that this url has been renewed, maintained, and updated with all the advancements web browsers have made...

There is also the HTML5 variant!

He’s an electrical engineer and makes videos on YouTube (and if you were worried, knows how to get shocked and not get killed).

It’s an old meme sir, but it checks out.

I mean, Profit and Lace can be skipped though.

It’s not a dumb question.

He could have a colostomy bag.

Everyone that has watched LOTR instantly thought of that scene.

TIL that pandas can retire.

I’m pretty dense, so could someone please explain this one to me?

buycurious ,

Forgive me, El Riko. I know that I, Worfé, do not have your superior intellect and education. But could it be that once again, you are angry at something else, and are looking to take it out on me?
