I don’t get the meme. Are you happy?
That is the point. There is a grey area.
The point is to be confused? It’s really hard to understand what message you’re trying to get across.
Yes. That is the point.
Do you want to leave peace for a technically challenging job with more salary or do you want to be peaceful? The dilemma is what I wanted to convey in the meme.
How does this convey a dilemma though? The small rodent, which I assume represents you, is being forcibly taken to its certain death. How is that a dilemma of choice?
And then the second frame makes it even more unintelligible. Suddenly the raptor is representing your job accepting your request for a more challenging project? And this is something you’re presumably happy about? So why are you a rodent that’s about to die?
We are all being forcibly taken to certain death
How do you want to spend the ride?
I don’t know man i got it with just the meme. People sometimes have feelings that contradict each other. Sometimes they don’t know how to feel.

But you’re using an image where there is no choice to represent a choice? How does that make any sense? This whole thing is really forced.

But it’s not simple. A simple joke makes sense without having to put any thought into it. This doesn’t make sense no matter how much thought you put into it.
Ok. It's your perspective.
Thank you for making the silly reddit argument I'd make so I don't have to
Are you deliberately trolling? Hahahaha you're funny.
Come on dude. On its face most people would think a job offer with twice a salary would be life-changing and this is challenging that notion in a humorous way. If you're having a hard time processing humor you might be autistic like the rest of us.
Bro I feel this, my situation is currently like this and idk what to do, I feel like I want more money, but my needs are all taken care of, plus, this peace is good ngl
Manager: Are you happy?
Me: Yes, the project is technically challenging and it is helping me grow as an individual as well. The sense that my code will run this company on its back is driving me to do even more.
You know it’s garbage because they watermarked it. The priority is karma farming.
lol, Yes reddit feeds me via karma. I bought two lunches selling my karma. /s
I put effort in creating original memes and water mark them.
Karma is useless BS. I would post irrespective of the karma BS.
Memes are for stealing
Sure. But don't add your watermark when you didn't create it.
I’m going to remove the watermarks from all your memes and reshare them
im ok with that.
No one is going to steal your meme dude its not a very good one
Good or Bad are perspectives. No comments.
Regarding stealing memes, many do. Irrespective of its quality.
Some even add their own watermarks in spite it is not their OC.. I would have created 1000+ original memes and have seen many roaming around with different watermarks in the past 2-3 years.
So there is nothing wrong putting mine as I am the OC.
Me: “I want growth” Growth: starts chewing my soul like RAM in chrome.
This is the reason i'm resisting temptation to ask leadership to transfer me to whole lot new AI involved modern stack project
Edit: I'm at peace and growing steadily
This is literally me; I spent 3 years maintaining legacy on-prem services, the work was easy, I’d have 2-3 days to fulfil 1-2 day tickets, work wasn’t that interesting but it was no stress, an easy life.
I’ve recently taken a 100% pay bump, as I didn’t want to stagnate and fall behind in the industry. I’m now so stressed at my job, it’s at scale-up stage so everyone is being asked to deliver work that isn’t possible in unfair timeframes because the big wigs are making promises for big contracts. Work feels like a war zone.
But hey the work is interesting, the product is complex and I’m learning a lot, and my income went up massively. I’m not sure how I feel yet. And I’ll slowly become accustomed to the income so I may as well get used to it lol
If you can, save that income for the "fuck this" fund. Make sure you have enough money to deal with being unemployed for a while. Otherwise your rent/mortgage will chain you to your desk and drain your life away.
I spent years at a horrible job that ruined my health and even home life, all because I didn't have the money to just leave and figure out the next step later.
My Job feels like this everyday
Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Ask for a raise at your current job before leaving and if you are sure about security of the others offer, tell them about it. They may counter-offer
This meme reflects exactly where I am now. Accepted!
I understand this meme as, your aren’t able to fly and will be carried until you get dropped. Don’t know if a dent in your CV is worth the short period of 2x salary.
Losing the comfort peaceful life of legacy project is a good way forward, but at the same time, jumping into a competitive market. Its not easy.

A meme made by AI would probably make more sense than this

Read this comment. If it still doesn't make sense please don't comment from another one of your accounts..
For some it makes sense, for some it would not as they cannot relate to it.
I can't help it unfortunately.
Nobody is confused about the scenario, it’s the meme itself that just doesn’t work.
Again your perspective. Why are you using two accounts everywhere? To make the same point
Care to explain your perspective then? You keep saying that as if there’s some way of making sense of this meme.
I have no idea what you’re talking about in regards to two accounts.
Care to read all others comments and my comments and read my meme one more time and maybe it would make sense.
If it still won't, I cannot help as it might not be relevant to you.
Regarding two accounts, You know what I am taking about.
What the hell is this "meme"
Genuine trash, and this sub is apparently full of morons who eat it up for some reason
ngmi
git gud as they say
My exact situation rn. Starting the new job in 3 weeks
What on earth is wrong with the stroke on the text lol
Me sowing: “Oh yeah, I’ve helped modernize a project before and it would look great on the resume to do that again but this time in the lead instead of as the junior”.
Me reaping: “holy shit why isn’t anything here using best practices or actual modern tech???”
Earlier today I saw a job for an AI programmer.
It was paying 20 times my current salary.
._.
what a weird font outline
Nice
I knew this image would get turned into a meme.
Yeah, I’ll stick with my current pay and my legacy ass projects that I can slowly chew through because the people who are in charge don’t hire enough people to do all the work that needs to be done. Job security. Chilling and enjoying myself because every day he’s a different problem.
Until the company is sold to a Swiss company and our team is replaced by dirt cheap IT in 2 different countries.

We had several rounds of layoffs already in the last few years. The board's pockets are certainly greener.
Whoah, in public sector you have a legacy project, severe understaff and ridiculously tight schedules because every release is tied on project, that has dedicated budget, which means you have to show the finished features at the end of the project in order to have money for the next project
