I thought I would tell you about some of the biggest career mistakes that I've seen in my illustrious career as an ex Google Tech lead who happened to also be fired from the excuse of a company, Facebook.

過去簡單式

Now, some of these may be some hard truths to swallow, but I was over on lengthen when I received a message from a woman.

She had been dealing with a lot of that B s and her company.

She felt that the whole company was about who could be as the hardest.

And there is no company more true than this than Facebook.

But my advice for you is to try to not self implode.

The game is the hang in there as long as you can, and they choose your battles wisely.

I've quit so many jobs in my past at least, like 10 jobs or so.

And every time I quit thinking that there was something wrong with the company and I was out and search for that perfect, beautiful company where I would be surrounded by beautiful women and I would be the so programmer, and that would have to deal with any other problems.

Everybody would just be serving me coffee, that sort of beautiful company.

It doesn't exist unless you're ready to work as a self employed person or become a homeless bum.

I'm getting on a free two months trout link in the description below.

Every company has politics and humans, and human nature is ugly and greedy.

It's only a matter of time before you become like me.

Some passive aggressive YouTube or living on the outskirts of society.

Making social commentary for pennies, drinking instant coffee.

Of course, it's better for younger people to not know others so that they can be in the state of ignorant bliss where they're working.

They're 9 to 5 jobs, bringing in their money, building up that career until they reach a point where they self implode and suffer at midlife crisis like meat.

But by that point, they would have built up a successful career, and they can use that to launch themselves into other areas, like entrepreneurship or side hustle businesses.

I've just seen so many people complaining about unfairness at work.

For example, Why is it that I'm the tech lead and you're not?

I'm just a youtuber, and yet I'm getting paid two times more than you, and I'm doing 1/10 of the work.

But nothing's going to change complaining that by that you can go as your boss.

Why, you might just get yourself fired in the process, though, and I can tell you that it is pure garbage all the way up that career ladder through Facebook, even into Google.

I was working over a Facebook, by the way, and there is this other employees, and he kind of picked the wrong battle.

He was complaining, trying to figure out why I would be the attack Lee, that he wasn't He was trying to be one, too, and he essentially just sabotaged both of our career paths.

And he complained that we made the whole mess of this over at work.

And, you know, the end result was that he had to switch teams because people probably just began viewing him as somebody who was not collaborative with other people.

Either way, that 9 to 5 job is called a rat race for a reason.

You just got to find little pockets of areas where you could survive and maybe find a few teammates here and there where you can work well with.

Have some fun doing that and hustle enough such that you get to some point where you can find your own thing to do.

Another career pitfall is slowing down your career trajectory.

Once you land that first job, you think that you're all set, you know it's been a struggle throughout your host school, and you finally land that job and you think you're good.

You're seeing more money than you've ever seen in your life.

But You can't just get comfortable there.

You're losing out on so much potential and yeah, I see a lot of people.

They start getting their Netflix subscription is set up.

They start going out with their friends to bars, clubs, restaurants every evening on the weekends.

They just blow through the whole weekends on those trips.

People are just having way too much fun out there without me because I'm still stuck at home.

And I'm still working like 12 to 16 hour days here.

My recommendation is nobody should be working.

You think you got the easy You got the maid.

You don't If anybody is rich, if anybody has it made, that should be me.

If anybody gets to relax first, I should be the one who gets to do that, not you.

I call the shots around here and nobody should be leaving the office going home before I do as the tack lied.

That's how things worked, at least over at Facebook and Google.

So what I want you to do is take up all that pent up hormonal, raging energy that you have and put the into your side hoe.

So put into, say, an additional 20% of extra work for your career when that was working over at Google.

By the way, the way I became Tech lead was I just started pretty and more work than other people, right?

I would work on the evenings, maybe put in the weekend occasionally and just put the 20% additional work than my co workers who are there just so lazy.

I was easily able to become the most knowledgeable person on the team on that code base.

I think you'll find that just pretty in the little bit of additional work will really improve your career trajectory.

You'll be able to switch to different companies quicker.

You may be able to job pop a few times, build up your skills and land your dream job at the top tier tech company in things Along with career trajectory, I've also seen some people sabotaging their own career paths.

They may choose to work at the Unknown company in favor of perhaps a little bit more money, maybe they're friends are there.

Maybe the work is a little bit more interesting.

And yet then they give up building up their resume.

And my overall suggestion is, if you're not interested in working at these top tier tech companies, then you could just go work there for, like, say, 3 to 6 months and then get out.

But as long as you get that on your resume than it would just open more doors for you as your continuing forward, as opposed to If you were to work out, say, some unknown startup.

Maybe a year later, two years later, the startups dead.

There may be no inherent long term value in having, like, say, an unknown start up on your resume.

By the way, check out this shirt pretty nice, isn't it?

It's over on sale link In the description below, one of the biggest mistakes that I myself am guilty off is people get the into game programming because they end up mixing their hobby for their career.

The actual money making portion the game programming industry just generally doesn't pay as well, even though it's pretty fun to be in as compared to say, a Silicon Valley tech companies, these Web and mobile companies.

And, yeah, I see a lot of people are thinking, Well, if they want to be a programmer and they're interested in game program and then they end up just doing game programming, But you can actually divide that up.

So you have coding as a hobby and coding as a career, and you can do both of these at the same time.

You just called websites and apps in the daytime and code up games in the evenings that works, and some people do that.

But don't forget that coding can also be a hobby, and you don't necessarily want to confuse the two.

Speaking of hobbies and personal interest, though, sometimes people use that as an excuse to get out of their current jobs.

They may say they want to quit their jobs so they can pursue their own startup.

But then what they really do is they go out and they work two hours a day out of some cafe, and then the rest of the time they're just out traveling.

As long as you acknowledge what you're really doing here, you just use that as an excuse to get out of your current employment.
