I've been in this hostel for three weeks. Near the surfspot, close to the beach, everybody here is nice and loving, there are people from everywhere, we all speak some sort of creole between english, portugese, french, spanish, german, and so on. We exchanged recipe and song, made connection in half a dozens country, and overall had a great time.

But then there's this creep who's a violent alcoholic fuck, made creepy comment about a girl half his age, called women bitches behind their back, constantly using excuses like his mummy, his job, the booze to be a shitty person, hiding himself behind humour to annoy people around but threatened to slit my throat when we did the same to him. I swear to god if he doesn't shut the fuck up this is gonna get ugly.

Fucking psycho creep.

As a nomad, I am pissed about companies forcing 2-FA on a specific phone number when at the same time, phone carriers are kicking you out if you haven't come to the country in a while (or start to charge you a fortune).

I had 5 phones numbers in the last three years. I do NOT want to link my bank account, my mailbox to it, but yet some silicon valley fuckhead who probably never crossed a border beside this time he went to tijuana to do coke decided he had to force me to.

I hope he fucking dies.

I'm in this meeting, they're discussing to know if they should create a meeting about not having too much meetings

KMN

Once again I'm stuck in a M$ work with an shit OS that offset my time every now and then, MS Teams that doesn't pick up my headset half of the time and their stupid fucking documentation that doesn't say anything more than the code (actually less since half of it is already redundant).

React: the above error happened in that file line XXX

Me: There's no error above ffs

It's 2022 and jest still doesn't support ES6 module out of the box (it's been around for 7 years).

Something tells me those fucks at the coop won't pay me on time. Last time I called I got this woman telling me how I can'T ImprOviSe FreElAnce ProJecT, and that I had to go back to belgium so she could explain to me how to register my contract.

I said I was in a different country. She didn't care. Apparently those stupid c*** still live in the 2nd millenium when everything had to be done using paper.

I worked in 5 different country so far. It was always painless, administratively speaking. Here I'm broke, I'm supposed to make more money in a week than my parents in a month but I'm about to go live in the wood. Joke of a country.

I swear those fucks told me I was gonna be a proper freelance and then expect a regular 9 to 5 disguised as consulting.

I'll fill up my saving account, find a workaway and then pay somebody to cold-call and find me clients for my own agency. How hard can it be?

I don't always fail at cropping

I wish I could be paid by task, that would be the most flexible way.

Any idea? I know there are some web3 / FOSS projects that are incentivizing people to work on their issues that way.

I'm calling half of the world to find a new contract and guess who's going to receive a thousand call a day after I find it.

On the other hand, it doesn't matter, I plan to go to portugal and do a paid workaway in a surf and yoga hostel.

Reason why I'll never apply to those fuckers. How hard is it not to fucking spam when you present yourself as a legitimate company?

I just report them as spam now lmao

They did not renew my contract. Dude you left me hanging for a whole day (I was wondering if I even had a job or if it was just some sort of scam), then at my second task, on my third day, when I ask for a call to show me wtf was I supposed to do, told me to "just read".

The ticket was just a link to figma. I did my best, but missed some stuff that were supposed to change. It could have been avoided if you just took the time to show me around, you stupid fuck.

You can suck my deeds if you don't like my ki

Designers designed a component with a "doubleDigits" property, that changes the text size if there's two digits.

After I implement it, I get "hey it doesn't look good if I type three digits".

Fuck you.

This girl calls me everyday for 6 weeks after we had a one night stand, saying she loves me, then dump me two days before my trip to see her (literally a thousand miles away) as soon as she found somebody else.

Not gonna lie, I seem to be experiencing some sort of crap attack.

May this work be done in a spirit of generosity, not driven by ego, greed or delusion.
May kindness sustain us and prevail in conflict
And compassion guide us and lead us to understanding
May we rejoice in the success of other
And remain unmoved by praise and blame

I'm readingThich Nhat Hanh (I'm ashamed to say I heard about him after he died recently... RIP). It's kinda fascinating and elegantly simple.

How would one go to integrate mindfulness into programming job. How do I use breathing during my work? Any idea?

omg I forgot how annoying CSS could be. I hate nitty gritty details, maybe I should switch to backend. In my last job I was only doing the front-to-back and another dude was doing the design.

Where the fuck could those 8 pixels come from? I have no idea

They're not selling water in bullet trains because of COVID. I'm very proud to save people's life by dehydrating myself.

Fuck that shit.

I'm going to try to microdose LSD to threat my ADHD from new year.

Any feedback?

My friends, I'm enjoying my time off by doing tango and surf and stuff. On new year eve, Imma go do 4 days of tantra shit to become an amazing lover. Life is good. Have a good day.

I used to be a skinhead but now I'm in a love triangle with a bald dude

I loved that contract at first because the breakdown made sense and I always had ticket to work on.

Nowadays, I keep waiting for him to give me work. Ugh

People ask me "How can you work 7 days a week and give 150%?". The full answer is complex. Here's the short version:

I'm not, I have a fucking life

const serverTime = utcToZonedTime(episodeTime, 'Europe/London');

... What?

The dude is frustrated because I pushed on the wrong branch and he "could not check out my work during the weekend".

It's the fucking week-end, wtf are you doing checking out branches?

Omg quit caring about the URL structure and just let me go to the gym ffs

Slack and Discord are just IRC for noobs.

Somebody watched the BC one?
