I love how OP restricted themselves to only respond in the mentioned phrases and how some have quite the reaction. Got me rolling.

I have a talent. I'm able to slouch on any chair or equivalent that is presented to me.
If I remember to correct my posture I just put the pillow for my lower back, slide to the edge of my seat or do both.
That's this weird Scientology guy, right?
Are you ok?
I drive an old car with a broken stereo. Every time I listen to the old version of this song I only get to hear the audio on the left. It has yet to fail to make me smirk.
Love that this implies that it happened at least three times lmao
I like their full band name:
Acidic Vaginal Liquid Explosion Generated by Mass Amounts of Filthy Fecal Fisting and Sadistic Septic Syphilic Sodomy Inside the Infected Maggot Infested Womb of a Molested Nun Dying Under the Roof of a Burning Church While a Priest Watches and Ejaculates in Immense Perverse Pleasure Over His First Fresh Fetus.
THAT was 13 years ago!?
I feel old..


Middle management is also there to communicate both ways in order to manage expectations. Especially when the senior dev is busy as well. And ideally the first few weeks to months after onboarding are there for junior devs to train and to get comfortable with the new environment (programmatically and socially). I get a lot of anti-work vibes from Lemmy communities, and while I get that capitalism is bad and big corps are optimizing profits over the employees' well being, I also think that work doesn't necessarily have to suck. I mean, it's pretty neat when someone's good at a thing and gets paid for doing something they somewhat like and are good at 70% of the time.
If times are rough and you have to take what you can get, that's obviously shit, though..
