I knew that phrase in caps would bite me at the end. I studied comp sci because I liked the field and expected that in my job I would learn and expand my knowledge about it. But the reality was completely opposite of all my expectation. The whole industry wanted me to provide service for things I was not prepared nor have an innate attitude/willingness/mindset to grasp and formulate a valuable opinion that other people can use without disappointment. It is hard for me to see disappointment from clients when they expected something I don't have the competency to provide. As software engineer I like to build things independently from their value in the market.
- hbrn 4y agoThe thing is, you can't blame the industry. Industry simply adjusts to market needs. It's not the industry that has wrong expectations from you, it's you who had wrong expectations about the industry.
