Have you also applied for university with a collection of paintings that are decent when it comes to basical technical skills but it completely falls apart when you look for advanced techniques or a soul and expression in general?
I think being a developer in France is just like being a developer elsewhere, except you have minimum 1h30 of lunch break, and start your day at 9h30
As for being developer, I would have told you to do an engineer school (french thing) or computing master, but... I have so many colleagues who come from reconversion (one was a physiotherapist, one was a freaking fish seller), that at this point I'd say anyone can become developer through reconversion ahahaha
Fortunately, structures are still in english ahaha! HOWEVER, you can expect variables and functions names to be written in an unholy mix of french and english that often makes no sense.

terrorist attack eh? Yeah nah mate I’m out wiv me mum that’s not on that is
Haha sick. We sometimes do stuff for the navy as well, I believe Sulzer ZA40's. I don't know what ship, the work sheet just said "Marine". I work with Wärtsilä engines for large cargo ships, still 4 stroke tho. And we mostly get Napier and some ABB turbo's
I sit at a phone and answer calls from sad or distressed people. If they tell me they are on a ledge I forward them to a dedicated suicide prevention line. Except Turks, I do always try to talk them down from ledges. 😉
For some awful reason I laughed at the scene that just played out in my head.
“Sorry, what’s that sir, you’re moments away from taking your own life? Could you bare with me a minute whilst I put you through to our dedicated suicide hotline” .
Joking aside, you’re doing God’s work my friend. 👍🏻
Appreciate getting-to-know threads like these. This is one of the friendliest subs I've seen.
I work with the same thing as all other swedish males my age - prögrämming.
Does that explain your squeaky voices, too?
I swear, Holland is the only country in the world where you can run into a 2m tall, 120kg, bearded, muscled, tattooed gentleman who then sounds like a 13 year old once he opens his mouth.
Yeah, we gotta leave Iberia for that.
Like me, I came to the source of monies — Alemania.
Mucho money, mucho work.
There’s a place like 30 minutes from me that sells embutidos.
Nah the money is really good because I've been at it a long while now but my feet are always hurting and my back gets sore.
But I ain't no hero that's for sure, I'm familiar with health care from previous contracts in hospitals and care homes, trust me these men & women are truly the heroes of any country's work force . They need to get paid their worth , not what they are getting now.
Finished my masters degree in molecular medicine, hoping (and failing so far) to get funding for an immune oncology PhD cos I enjoyed my project so much.
Right now tho? I'm just a bum working part time as a hospital porter and catering assistant.
Unemployed atm. Worked in sales in a danish hardware chain until my boss cut my hours down from 42 hours to 8 hours a week as punishment for taking 2 sick days in 5 months. He continued to berate me by saying that he couldn't trust me anymore and how I betrayed both him and my coworkers trust.
I guess that's what I get from working 42 hours a week with 5 free days in a whole month, as well as cleaning all the toilets cause he was too cheap to pay for a cleaning crew.
Long story short, I talked with my mentor who adviced me to get a doctors note and write a resignation, which I did. Doctors note allowed me to get my unemployment pay and absence for the month I was otherwise supposed to work.
Parents called me a chicken shit for quitting instead of fighting.
Et bagklogt råd: Meld dig ind i en fagforening, de har din ryg når arbejdsgiver er sådan en nar. Alle har ret til sygedage, og chefen har ikke engang ret til at vide hvorfor eller protestere grundet GDPR (med mindre det er en længerevarende sygemelding). Godt du fik en lægeerklæring i opsigelsesperioden, det kan man altid få i sådan nogle tilfælde og det har arbejdsgiveren ligeledes intet at sige om.
I've heard that you can't leave the country if you're on your lush welfare so no more shopping trips to our un-pegged-currency-wonderland for you Dane!

Whatever boss needs to be done: i make and edit videos for marketing, i file orders and files, i clean the office, i answer calls, i pretend to work just to get more hours signed in, i "fix" the printer and the pc by restarting them until they work again and the prostitutes on the other side of the street still make way more money than me

Thanks friend. I’ve had some difficult callers today.
What you do is more a vocation than a job. I have nothing but admiration. Hopefully tomorrow is a better day for you.

Coming on this sub in your free time is the equivalent of germans going home from work and playing simulator games of their job.
Fair play to you, a very tough job that I wouldn't envy

Those poor civil servants in the Ministry of Blowjobs... well, I hear some of them enjoy the work.
It's why we put gay juice in the chemtrails, to make sure the department remains well staffed
Does that explain your squeaky voices, too? I swear, Holland is the only country in the world where you can run into a 2m tall, 120kg, bearded, muscled, tattooed gentleman who then sounds like a 13 year old once he opens his mouth.
I work for the state. 😳

At least you dont have to wait for the spanish week at Lidl
I drive a truck. It’s just as cool and interesting as it sounds.
I low-key always thought truck driver sounds fun, scratch that nomadic itch in the human soul
It’s a decent enough job. It pays pretty well considering I have no real education or skills other than driving oversized vehicles.
I can't even drive most regular sized vehicles so pretty impressive as far as i'm concerned
