Antiwork

So, like a lot of people I’m not making enough money to really get by. I’m not really able to save. On top of that I am recently married and have some serious debt because of that. I lost my job about 5 weeks ago and it took me about 2 weeks to find an other and with that an additional 3 weeks to get my first check. As you can imagine I fell behind on my payments. I decided to cash out some of my 401k just so I could pay all this off. I got my check and foolishly deposited it in the atm thinking it would be available with in a business day. My bank (bank of America) placed a hold on it and those funds won’t be accessible until some time next month! How can they hold my money like that? How is it even legal…

You just got a new job offer! Congrat commiserations. Your freedom is gone but at least you’ll have money. Here is a guide for new starters: · If this hasn’t come up already (red flag), ask for high yet suitable salary. Research what the role usually earns in your area. Consider your experience. Don’t lowball yourself. Ask for a little higher than you expect, and settle for what you expect. · Negotiate your employment contract. This depends on your bargaining power and country.

As a highly skilled AppSec engineer with considerable expertise in my 20 ~ 30ish, I recently underwent two interviews—one with a prominent Fintech company and another with a well-established bank. I received commendations for my exceptional technical knowledge and was recognized as a person of admirable character and a positive attitude. My responses during the interview were consistently deemed superior to other candidates. However, to my disappointment, I was ultimately informed that I was not considered a cultural fit for these organizations due to their purportedly overwhelming workloads and the challenges associated with managing certain stakeholders known for their rudeness. What baffles me is that this determination was made after just the initial round of technical interviews, without any detailed discussion of the specific workload or an opportunity for me to express my willingness to take on challenges. Furthermore, when asked about my tolerance for risk in stakeholder management, I…
