You can still get a good software engineer salary in the midwest. In Indy we have at least 4-5 places that will pay you 140k+, the place I'm at will pay 180k for someone that has proven their worth. That is a lot of money in Indiana.

Do they really? Amazon did that one time but that was stupid of them. Most software companies use an external service (like statuspage.io) to host their status page.

This is the story of Interactive Intelligence, a company I worked for long ago. They were going to build children's software, but had trouble setting up a phone system. So they decided to build phone systems, and later sold for 1.3B

People who can't handle life at minimum wage aren't showing much resilience either, but why put yourself through that?

I agree. I guess if GP wanted to tell us why he left so quickly he would have told us, though it wouldn't have hurt to ask in a nicer way.

Yeah, we're talking about users who don't really understand phishing, and yet you want them to understand it enough to know not to use the browser that came with their macbook/iphone?

We have something like this, not weeks but days. Linear programs, integer math, using IBM Cplex to schedule "people" to do "things" at the ideal time.

You have applied for 99 jobs for every 1 that you've accepted? I think that is rare.

All of the people who would get jobs if it wouldn't cut them off of their free/cheap housing and food stamps? You either qualify for subsidized housing or you don't (at least in my state).
