    I’ve had 4 jobs in about 30 years now. Stuck with the current until I’m 64 then - quite feasible actually!

    The Personal Development & Financial Independence Thread

    But don’t change too quickly or you will be perceived as toxic. Also, 15 years of short stints makes you a senior consultant, not a senior engineer.

    I know a couple of people who arecar nuts, and have many fancy cars. My take is that if it’s your thing, then great. And one will find that they take the cars on cross-European trips, race tracks, etc. Then there are those who have the cars just so that people will look at them. That’s a bit...

    You just noted the absence of any qualifiers in my statement, so how could it be definitive or final? The qualification come from context. It’s how language works. Do you carry on like this in your professional life? Seems very… career limiting.

    Good write up, but this bit isn’t true, unless by everyone, you mean all refugees. You only get this if your income is low enough. 80% of the country is ineligible.
