    Lots of people in this thread basically saying “I will voluntarily yield those job opportunities to people willing to use new technology.”

    Thanks, I guess?

      A job at a company that won’t respect your basic humanity isn’t worth having. If you’d rather willingly step into that trap than proceed with whatever you’re doing, or go with other options, are you okay? Like if this sounds like an opportunity and not a giant red flag, I wish there was something I could offer to help you.

      tbh anyone who’s willing to degrade themselves for a job like that isn’t going to have the same work ethic of someone who refuses to debase themselves to the whims of a micromanaging employer.

      if you think you’re in that group, I’m happy to let you work for a shitty company while I go work somewhere that at least pretends like my contributions matter to the field.

      I may be selling my soul to a company that secretly doesn’t care if I live or die but at least I can sleep at night with the belief that my contributions matter to someone within the company.

      unlike at these shithole companies that don’t even care enough about their culture or other employees quality enough to put the effort out to find the best candidate for the role.
