Hey I'm looking for some advice. I feel completely trapped at my current job. I am honestly so miserable going to work every day and don't think I can sustain whats being expected of me. I feel like I don't even have the energy to job search because my job is so draining AND on top of that the job market sucks so much right now idk if its even worth it. Does anyone have any advice?

I know of an employer that employs asian females almost exclusively in their production area. The job is mostly soldering through hole components. The pay isn't very high. There are about 40 people working in that production area and it's 95% asian females. The odd part is there are two leads and a supervisor in that area and they are all white. It really seems like race based hiring practices.

Has anyone else in Tech been laid off in the last 6 months and having trouble finding a new job? I have over 20 years with a telco company

What is the most pointless thing you have to do on a week by week basis? For me, I just think about how much time I waste in some of my team meetings that I feel provide no value to the group. Sometimes it feels like the 30 minute meeting I have every thursday could just be an email

I’m a 35-year-old in Seattle, and I’m genuinely terrified that I’m already becoming too old for this industry. I looked around our all-hands meeting yesterday and realized that except for upper management, almost everyone on the engineering team is fresh out of college age. They can pull all-nighters without blinking, while my back hurts if I sit in the wrong chair for two hours. Are we all just silently sliding toward an expiration date once we hit our late 30s? How do you stay relevant?
