don't forget the hipster enterprise programmers (aka the contractors)
- peterwwillis 12y agohow are contractors the hipsters of enterprises? if anything they're the yuppies. do whatever the fuck they want, get paid boatloads of cash, don't produce anything of value, are generally dicks. i think you're thinking of brooklyn trustfund hipsters, which are just the new yuppies.
- Ovid 12y agoI'm a consultant, produce plenty of value, have very happy customers, and I don't get called a "dick" too often. Don't pay all of us with the same brush, please :) (Note: I'm the guy who wrote the post OP linked to)
- singingfish 12y agoUs perl contractors (former in my case, a decent job in my home town with good working conditions came up) are what the enterprise turn to when they need to circumvent the bureaucracy.
