I'm beginning to get burned out on coding in general due to work-related stresses.

Is anyone hiring remotely?
Please?

Will code in Ruby/Node/React for food ☹

    Don't know any remote work but I can offer you a hug: 🤗
    It's not much but it can relieve some stress maybe? 😊

    Hey, this too shall pass. Stay strong! *virtual hug *
    In the meanwhile, maybe you can try and do some freelancing on freelance.com !

    Ruby. Ugh. Hurts my eyes to read this word.

    If you are interested in fancy front end, learn webgl, plenty of remote work today for webgl skilled devs.

    @illusion466 That's my solution to an overly stressful job 😋

    @sinisas Ruby is wonderful ❤

    @theScientist uh, yes? Replace crap job with different, hopefully better job?

    And remote because I can look locally myself!

    The last sentence made me really sad like nothing ever here. Hug.

    @1989 everything but LinkedIn. I'm not a fan of real-persona sites.

    Might break down and do it, though. 🙁

    @Root If you are interested, send your CV (I think you should get enough info from my profile; if not, I can write some tips...).

    We can have a call some time. I am in GMT+1 but working with GMT-6 - GMT-8 quite a lot due to the clients. Remote is not a problem.

    Seems to be right in your alley.

    It might not be to clear but they have 100% remote employees

    On another note, when i feel exhausted from code i realize its a good time to take a vacation i guess.

    @Root where are you based? I'd bring it up to my superior.

    @christiaan !!! Thanks!
    I'll definitely look into that one. No clue how the tax law is going to work, though.

    @johngreen I genwrally avoid PHP whenever possible, but I might start looking into those, too.

    @bioDan yes indeed. I'm planning a weekend trip in a few weeks. Won't be much, but it might help. 🙂

    @gberginc I'm assuming I can look you up via your username. If I can find you, I'll send you a copy of my résumé. 😊

    @Root my email alias is lemmy, domain is, as @1989 wrote, xlab.si.

    You can check my github link in the profile to see the projects we do in Ruby (they are all open source).

    Is there a possibility to contact you in private? I do know an awesome company (worked there during my first years of Uni, never would have quit if not for very personal, company unrelated stuff)

    @blancobloc I'll make a throwaway email today and share it here 😊

    @gberginc Sent last night!

    @johngreen An emotion? Get it away get it away! 😅 But thank you!

    @johngreen 💛 Thanks! I'll absolutely keep that in mind.

    Edit: Oh phooey, there's a 48h hold on the account.

    @Root my company has recently opened an office in Boston - no remote work, but the chance to become lead dev / head of office very quickly (current one is going back to Germany after everything is set up). The work is Webdev with focus on eCommerce, mainly JS. Interested?

    Just piggybacking in the thread.

    How do you guys/girls/whatever you might be, handle burn out?

    I mean, at my work I do stuff that I enjoy and I'm happy with it, but in the afternoon/nights I want to do some side stuff, but can't find the motivation. Even on weekends it's like "naaah, I don't wanna"

    I thought only the rich kids code Ruby.
    Poor kids code react native for iOS on a window laptop with expo and hope it works.

    Boy do I wish we had more engineers where I work. Too bad we just got some new guys and I have no clue when we'll be hiring for more... we have openings, but nothing for frontendy stuff right now. Bah. Need more engineers. Pretty much all but me and a few software engineers work from home twice a week and it's gets super boring in the office lol.

    @evanjs Full-stack dev. I can do everything well except DevOps, which I'm just sorta okay at.
