  • God, job hunts are the worst. Partner’s been looking for something literally anywhere within an hour of the cbd, has years of hospo experience, years of random tech knowhow. Even casual would be fine at this point. Just needs something to tide him over whilst we wait on the partner visa stuff to go through.

    He’s only had one bloody interview, even, and they were reportedly incredibly nice and then just never talked to him after.

    I’m so exhausted with supporting both of us. He’s so exhausted with doing 20+ bloody job apps every day. Ugh











  • Professional FE engineer working in game dev.

    Started out on Marapets with mostly HTML, learnt a bit of CSS when I got on Tumblr, then took a 3D modelling class in highschool. Decided I liked it, so I kept going and did a degree in game development & design. Joined a really small team at a consulting firm doing normal corporate contract stuff, where they trained me up across a few different languages, got me talking to clients, etc etc. Really, really good experience. During the pandemic, I left them (regretfully, but I needed to grow - they have my number, always) and did a year at a much larger company as a full-stack engineer with a focus on FE, and switched jobs when management grew toxic. Also did a lot of hobbyist CSS work on a writing site, got really damn good at it there.

    Was going to join a design firm on their FE team, but a friend reached out and asked if I wanted to work in game dev instead. So… there was barely even a question there. I fucking love my job.
