Sounds like you need a hug. I'd give it to you, but social distancing and all that. Hope you found something to cure your angst.
Disagree with a question? Technically, even though the ocean is "open" for surfing, out Newsome, President of the Nation-State of California has decreed that we not travel. That was my point. If you want to roll the dice and travel out of your bubble, that's totally on you. I figured you were just trying to bait me into an argument to entertain yourself, but I'm too old to fall for that. Gotta say that your comment demeaning DevOps was pretty lame though considering that DevOps Engineers are some of the most highly sought after and best paid "software" engineers out there right now. I just talked to someone from a really big company about a leadership role. That company is getting ready to hire 22 DevOps engineers. Gotta learn that DevOps ish on your own too. Not going to learn what you need to know in CIS classes.
So i asked Karen but she had a blue one and then Kevin said pizza and I kicked the ball so we went skating and the sled was broke so we scored a touchdown and the blueberries were ripe....
You forgot the last part..."Nobody rides for free." But, you wouldn't want to be seen with this Kook anyway, would you?
Thanks for telling us how awesome you were/ are.. Truth is you came in hot with no direction and lashed out without consideration. Lets see how it goes for you.. Its up to you how to proceed. Hope thongs are swell for you in Cali.
I appreciate the contrition. Constant introspection and willingness to amend one's behavior is a fine recipe for succeeding at this game of life, at which so many fail. Live aloha. ps. Chest high and offshore today, but only a few places you can get in the water.
