| A few lines of fun writing to IT brothers during Covid | |
| By: Martha Louise Date: February 22, 2023, 9:59 pm | |
| --------------------------------------------------------- | |
| For the past few weeks, I have been working from home, the work | |
| is still the same, only the one that saves travel time, has an | |
| extra 1-2 hours a day to read, play, and reflect on life. | |
| Due to the epidemic, I also live slower, go out less, cook by | |
| myself instead of eating at a restaurant. Thanks to living | |
| slowly, I have time to think about miscellaneous things, so now | |
| I write these lines to confide in IT brothers for fun. | |
| A few words in the article are just personal thoughts, not | |
| advice. Just think of it as drinking Corona beer while listening | |
| to me gossip! | |
| I feel lucky to be in the IT industry | |
| For a few days, reading online, everywhere, businesses are | |
| closed, people lose their jobs or reduce revenue, especially in | |
| the tourism, catering, and advertising industries. | |
| Fortunately, I have not been� unemployed. Looking back, our IT | |
| industry can still do remote work. Therefore, in the short term, | |
| our work has not been affected. | |
| Still, economic stagnation is certain. We will also face | |
| difficulties indirectly: the company is not profitable, the | |
| salary is difficult to increase, and it may be reduced; other | |
| companies are afraid to recruit people, difficult to change | |
| jobs; Freelance projects are also less. | |
| Not to mention, many startups will be heavily affected during | |
| this period (transportation, education, tourism, etc.). The | |
| salary of IT brothers is very high, so it is easy to become the | |
| object of a cut when companies have difficulties, or � | |
| bankruptcy. | |
| Should save extra income | |
| Therefore, I advise you to work hard to save and have extra | |
| income. | |
| I'm sure my devs are pretty good at saving things. Our career | |
| does not need to dress much, does not need social investment. | |
| Therefore, if you are sure that any brother is single, | |
| unmarried, he will probably save quite a bit. | |
| In addition, having outside income will also help you worry | |
| less. In addition to the main job in the company, I also have a | |
| number of side income sources such as: | |
| Play GameFi for money (Fairycat .net, DeFi Kingdoms .com, Axie | |
| Infinity .com,..) | |
| -Run grab | |
| -Taking pictures of sexy cosplay posted patreon� | |
| -Advertising money from blog/ youtube/ fanpage | |
| This amount is not much compared to salary, but if unemployed, | |
| it is enough for three meals a day and coffee. Personally, I | |
| always save at least 3-6 months of living expenses, so that if I | |
| lose my job unexpectedly (the boss fires, the company goes | |
| bankrupt, I quit the job�) I can still take it easy. | |
| There's no such thing as a...stable life | |
| The dev works in a huge company with thousands of employees, a | |
| high-paying, stable job. Now due to the epidemic, the company is | |
| looking for ways to cut back, so every day ... live in fear | |
| Thinking back, sometimes we are so used to everyday life: going | |
| to work, chatting with colleagues, receiving salary, ... so it | |
| feels normal and boring. | |
| Until we can't leave the house, we feel how much fun it is to go | |
| to work! Until our company goes out of business, how precious | |
| every month's salary is! Only when we get fever, cough and | |
| suspected of being infected with Covid, we realize how valuable | |
| and fragile health is! | |
| Well, if you lose your freedom and your job, you can slowly get | |
| them back, only losing your health is a bit difficult to get | |
| back. Remember to protect yourself, wash your hands a lot, work | |
| in moderation, and exercise regularly. | |
| That's it, some of my gossip is over! What about you, has your | |
| life, your acquaintances changed because of COVID? Remember to | |
| share in the comments! | |
