I hit 95k this year as a teacher. Should reach that milestone by next year.
95k as a teacher? Where the hell are you getting that kind of salary teaching?

What did you do before and what did you do to break into tech? Learn on your own? Go back to school?

Was a teacher before actually. Did one of those boot camps and got some certifications during it. Landed my current job about a week after finishing the course.

No really? You don't think obscure job that I won't define pays 6 figures?

Post #35?

anyway I have no idea who TC was or what they got banned for but a bunch of people thinking this is some outrageous pay is odd to me. not like they claimed they make a million dollars or something

I mean he probably wasn't lying unless he has a history of shitposting, I don't keep up with user-specific lore. It's been said before in other topics where making a 6 figure income is nice and it is not that uncommon for tech-oriented people (gaming website) to hit that, and not everyone wants to tmi what they do.

There was a topic like this on the PC board a few months back and people ended up posting paystubs

well paycheck to paycheck means different things to different people.

at the beginning of 2022 I was still at my first software job making ~$72k, and as of March this year Im making over $30k more.

prior to recent layoffs places were very aggressive with pay for tech roles and even now the market is pretty good depending on your niche

Nothing itt is unbelievable imo

I make about $120K but that's between two jobs. My main job pays $90K.

Even if they were lying, nothing they said in this topic was unrealistic or unattainable (remember paycheck to paycheck could mean $60k in some cities)

so as someone trying to break into the industry you can still use this as motivation

I wholeheartedly believe someone can be a shitposter on gamefaqs and also earn the salary of a mid-level tech job

Cybersecurity, just got put on a project doing some security architecture stuff with AWS which was part of the latest promotion

like this is mundane but also specific enough to make me believe this person knows that theyre talking about. This isnt a response someone pulls out of their ass

according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics the median salary for a cybersecurity analyst is $112k

Isnt TC that Bass user who keeps getting banned and then comes back here just to get banned again after 50 days? I remember them saying they were changing their career to cyber security and their posting style is similar.

I refuse to believe anyone making six figures would spend time trolling an antiquated website like most of them seem to do.

Are you under the impression that there arent loads of stunted manchildren in CS roles?

there are so many people Ive worked with who are insufferable and only get by on technical skill

For example at a previous job somebody started a dank memes channel on our company slack; they were sharing all kinds of 4chan content on a (public) internal channel, and it took someone from HR to step in and say actually, no, you cant use company chat to share gifs of rhinos shitting

TC you were a teacher in the past, that is really good.
