still can't believe someone actually hired me as dev and then multiple companies tried poaching me (one tried twice, another tried four times)

what are they all on

Me too sometimes...

But then I remember several devs with the same YOE I have in my company who're clueless about a lot of things. I think I will be fine.. maybe I won't be a 10x engineer with 10x salary but at least I will still get a job.

Were any of them the same companies that ignored or turned you down when looking for a job?

@Demolishun nah, both of them offered, I turned down, and reached out again up-ing their offers
