"996", "check shirt", and the volume of hair that is inversely proportional to the technical level seem to have always been synonymous with programmers.
at last! Even post-90s programmers have started their hair "defense war" . According to data from the largest domestic e-commerce platform-during the 618 period, imported anti- drop products were more popular than games, keyboards, and mice among programmers ...
In order to protect the few remaining hair, many programmers began to find another way out. Of course, many people choose to leave the front line as soon as possible and move towards management.
However, the ratio of manager to ordinary IC is usually 1:10 or even higher, and not everyone can be promoted. Either you have to be skilled , or you have to have an excellent ability to deal with PM , and be able to promote the project...
In fact, leaving aside the shackles of "programmers", many people have a vivid and interesting soul. They develop simple hobbies into serious side jobs, and in the end, the side job turns into a more positive "money" scene .
In order to play competitive games, I became a programmer
Dominating the situation in the virtual game world and accepting the admiration of the fans are the most intoxicating things for boys. For those who love video games, how happy is it to play games? They seem to have 24/7 spare time, even 007 will think this is a blessing !
After graduating, I worked as a network security company in a small company. After I did it, I worked hard for several years. The salary was always reluctant, but I got a good hand speed! So far, I’m ashamed to say that when I first learned programming, I was able to buy a computer and play games reasonably...
I think that as long as the keyboard is fast, playing games is definitely not a problem. The proficiency in technology has also ushered in a turning point in my life. Playing games has changed from a simple hobby to my decent career.
Fix bugs at work, bring goods after get off work**
Can you imagine what kind of experience it is for programmers to bring goods? Due to the epidemic, many fruits and vegetables are unsalable. It is the programmer's responsibility to help the poor and help the farmers, and I am the king of Wogan with a sense of responsibility.
I was born in the countryside, and I have witnessed my father’s failure to harvest fruits and vegetables due to unsalable sales. Although I am an ordinary small code farmer in a second-tier city, I can use my housekeeping skills to help the villagers.
Recalling now, from searching for the characteristics of fruits and vegetables, to researching the development of fruit and vegetable applets, to live-streaming goods, I even learned how to edit pictures. The journey was quite tiring, but more joyful.
I spent 3 years planning a resignation, just to do Vlog
Everyone thinks that the slash youth is an insulator for programmers, but we may not be as versatile as the art lady, but we are by no means a single love code life. For example, when I get serious, I am afraid of myself.
The change to become the UP master was purely accidental. When I became numb due to overtime, I accidentally traveled to Southeast Asian countries. I found that traveling is different from hard work and full of fun, so I secretly decided to save up to 100w full-time travel to do self-media .
Because it is difficult to travel from the media while working. So saving money for self-media has become the driving force behind my hard work. In order to achieve the goal, overtime is more fierce than before, and work has gradually become life.
After 3 years, I finally saved enough million, but I hesitated: I have now been promoted and raised , but the unknown about changing career makes me a little scared.
After struggling for 3 months, I chose to abide by the promise I made 3 years ago and become a full-time travel UP owner. Now, it has been almost half a year since I left the office, and the accounts I operated have also improved slightly. Although it is very tiring to do self-media, I am thankful that I have persisted and lived the life I want.
I started my business for half a year, and my net profit is more than my one-year package
Move bricks during the day and build dreams at night. According to the survey, the most popular destination for programmers to switch careers is entrepreneurship.
I quit my job to start a business after two years in a first-line technology company. The team disbanded two years later, and the first venture ended in debt. Although I don't regret wasting two years to start a business, I really regretted it when I emptied my parents' savings and I couldn't afford it. So I followed my entrepreneurial dream and decided: make a living first .
When I lowered my head and worked for eight years and gained a certain amount of savings, my entrepreneurial spirit sprouted again. Because he was very optimistic about the prospects of artificial intelligence, he resigned decisively to study at home. One year later, the prototype of the product landed and the first round of financing was also completed .
Since then, dreams will no longer be a fantasy. I am also very grateful for being a programmer for making all these dreams come true.
I am a senior programmer with 12 years of experience in traditional IT and Internet industries. Today I want to talk to you about "eating soft rice" .
"Eat soft rice" is a commendatory word in my eyes, it is a recognition of my wife's ability. Half a year ago, I went to the sea to do foreign trade with my wife. Using her contacts and supply of goods, the net profit could reach more than 700,000 yuan in half a year .
In the severe living environment of the epidemic, it is also enviable to have such impressive results. I have to say that this programmer can abandon the prejudice and obsession of the traditional "husband sings and follow the women" and follow his wife to find business opportunities. This programmer is superior in mind and vision.
Decided to change career, so preparation is enough
Most programmers are willing to change careers but hesitate because they have no skills other than writing code, unfamiliar with other industries, and even have great psychological barriers due to age and salary gap. Then the first thing to do is to tap the advantages and refine personal value .
Think carefully:
1. What do I want (a comfortable life? A lot of income?)
2. What do I have (knowledge, skills, experience, contacts)
3. What can I lose (family life? Leaving home?)
Then, find the area of intersection between 1 and 2, and then initially search for and collect the company and position information around you to form a basic list of companies and positions. Score the companies in the List based on 1 and 2, and then filter them.
In fact, every age group has problems to be solved and faced. Recognizing their true inner needs and desires , and then finding a suitable place to fight monsters and upgrades is the top priority.
