A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

If reality worked the way hiring managers and job interviews thought it did companies would have to fire everyone when they purchased new software since no one would have any experience using it. (lemmy.world)

I think most of Lemmy are introverts. I think they are missing contextual clues in interviews and taking bullet points too literally.

I find job postings in tech to be fairly decent in many cases and I've never had issues as a hiring manager filing roles with competent talent 🤷‍♂️

I'm constantly reminded of the dog walker from /r/ antiwork

No one has any life experience or analytical skills, but everyone thinks they are correct about everything and have a superior understanding of how the world works.
