Market still seems hot for senior/staff devs. Getting laid off is a free lunch + a paid vacation to interview for a better job. Thank god I listened to my mom and learned to code.
- colechristensen 4y agoIt's a little stressful but a reminder that real wealth is the freedom to not be employed for a little while. Keep six months expenses on hand to deal with this kind of thing and you won't have to be afraid of being laid off. Like you say, if you're prepared it's a free vacation and and opportunity to be picky with your next job.
- ge96 4y agoYeah I'm looking forward to being free (fire). Right now it's like "ugh gotta get through my 9-5 before I can do what I want to do". Still I'm fortunate/could be worse.
