8 months agoFor anyone reading this who it scares off, by job hopping 3 times in my first 5 years of employment post-college I just under tripled my salary.
Move early move often and keep interviewing while you have a job as it lets you be the pickiest in choosing where you’ll have to spend your working hours.
Companies overwhelmingly have no loyalty to you whatsoever (how I wish I was in a co-op so this wouldn’t be so), so aggressively pit them against eachother regarding your labor.
I’m hoping the EU takes them/other digital storefronts to court at some point about my right to sell/transfer my licenses to all these products.
I should absolutely be able to sell my license to a game to another person. It’s bizarre that I can in the physical world but not the digital world where the actual “transfer” is 1000000x easier.
Also from just a platform standpoint it’s absurd I can’t disable updates on steam. I know some games offer alternative solutions to this through the beta branch feature but that is a band-aid over the full solution.
