    I find that professions means kinda Jack shit in the modern age.

    Financial specialists I know are drowning in gambling debt and crypto they can’t sell but “debt is good”

    Therapists I know are the epitome of perpetual children mindset and complain that people are being rude to them all the time if asked to do anything.

    Project managers I know just forward emails and ask me to help keep them on track.

    Maybe it’s all burnout but I think people went for the job titles and positions they could get through connections not what they are good at and people have just been pretending and faking their way through our crumbling facade of an existence for the past couple decades.

      Hey they didn’t get that fancy PMP cert to do work.

      /s, not /s. Project Managers are a force multiplier, some are just a negative force multiplier.

        I am currently forced to be PM and it fucking sucks! I want to do engineering again, solve problems others can’t solve, blablabla and not this pile of shit.
