This is a throwaway so I can be dumb and learn stuff
Career/partial life bio
Decided to trim this about down, will post pastebin links overtime
Aug 2025
Well I decided to stay. I'm gonna just work on my finances so I'm ready if I am let go but I am in a good position. I work in the AI/innovation related stuff and they're building a new AI division so it's like, things are looking up. I just gotta get past ego and play the game.
I am scared because I am broke/in debt/poor. Why am I poor? Because I get lonely and go to a strip club, walk in throw $500 and walk out. This job is not that bad, every morning I work out, go on walks, Thursdays we drink. I only do a couple hours of work a day. Yet I'm trying to leave ha. I will get a reality check at least and see if I have value.
Decided to look for a new job even though I'm only 8 months into this one. Will see if the market is still terrible and if I'm valuable. Funny how I can't see myself being a lead, it's a self-esteem problem and also knowing where I am tech-wise. I guess I'm that 10x-1yr engineer scenario. Just annoyed with where I work, bad practices, knowledge silos, cliques/buddy-buddy people. That's probably the same everywhere but I don't feel secure here, I'm a contractor is another thing. I probably have made some indirect enemies too when I ask people tech stuff to gauge their knowledge/their current position eg. a CTO or whatever. I feel sad, I feel like I'm betraying them but at the same time I'm nobody here, I'm like a code janitor lately.
I'm giving in. I've been feeling lazy af at work. I didn't really want to deep dive into yet another AWS piece of tech so I just used the code that Google's AI summary suggested and it worked... so yeah f it. I'll start using AI more to assist me in writing code.
I had an epiphany last night. Despite my life standing (albeit not much) eg. six-fig job but almost six-fig debt, I'm poor but in terms of life not a loser eg. have my own 2BR apt and fun fast car. The main thing that makes me sad about my life is I'm not having a lot of sex with random women. I want to be the so called "Chad". But anyway I stumbled upon this older guy who has pictures of him and random younger women nude and I'm like, damn that's my hero. Anyway gives me hope like I'm still young so there is that future. I also think I'm going to get a vasectomy since I don't see myself raising a family. I want to be the guy with money that bums around, the playboy. I don't have the mindset for it currently since I'm the meek insecure guy with low self-esteem and afraid of homeless people. But for now I'll focus on getting out of debt and freeing myself from the 9-5.
It might be time to fix it (Tame Impala) I want to live for something not just go to work and pay bills
Funny a big problem in my life is social anxiety, with women in particular. I don't have a problem driving fast but I can't seem to overcome that ha. Soon I will get back on my debt relief goals, I haven't driven UE in a month. Need to start making that part of my life again. It's not all bad, I get to see random places and talk to people. I'm sitting here donating plasma now. Funny how I do this and make 3-4x what the other people make.
So much of the time I'm used to being in a bad state like something I'm working on needs more work. Today I get the good news something I made is 100% working and I'm like "how is this true?" looking for an explanation ha.
