Family reaction story to you being a dev?
Week 287 Group Rant
Demolishun
2y

Got a job as a controls engineer. Told my parents.

Parents: Good Job!
Brother: Bro! How you make so much money?
Me: I went to a tech school and learned how to do technical stuff.
Brother: Oh... fuck that shit!

Everyone was really supportive. Been slowly gravitating from controls to more pure software. But a lot of the software I write is for controls and automation of machines.

    Get ready to fix computer issues, phone problems, facebook login issues and when the AC is not blowing cool air. You’re required do all this because it’s all technical.

    @fruitfcker tbh problem solving skills translate pretty well, and you'd probably be able to fix them, but it can be a pita
