The tired after working tech in a play where characters sprint about as they please is a different kind of tired.

Technology has undeniably had a profound impact on our lives today. Its influence can be seen in virtually every aspect of our daily routines,
Technology has become an integral part of our lives, impacting everything from our home lives to our professional lives and beyond.

But how exactly does technology affect our daily lives? From improved communication to the potential for job loss, the way technology has impacted our lives is both complex and far-reaching.

I thought a fulltime job in tech was going to be the shit but I’ll be happy when I’m worked in enough so that I can work from home and stay out of the office drama. I’m totally new to the office life but it’s as awkward as I thought it would be to learn something new after 30. I’m used to delegate restaurants and coffeeshops and the likes, and now I’m a simple pawn in a big company that pays me well for my knowledge. I shouldn’t be complaining but if this is what it feels like to have a routine that’s taking away 80% of your free time, it’s not worth it for me. I’m missing my home everyday I’m not in it and my little kitty cat misses me too since she’s showing a whole new attachment method towards me.

Today at work I reminded myself the difference between AC and DC power.

“Your brother is adorable.” The cashier cooed at Danny, peering over the counter with a smile. “What’s his name?”
Danny looked down to the surly, scowling little de-aged Batman currently holding onto his hand, glaring up at the cashier with bright blue eyes.
Things had already been bad enough when he’d gotten caught in a fight in Gotham, but things went from bad to worse when a magician had hit Batman with a de-aging spell and then shoved them through a portal.
Into a different fucking dimension.
Because of course neither of their lives could be easy. And now the two of them were stuck in Iowa in the middle of nowhere, at a truck stop gas station, trying to go on a cross-country roadtrip to reach the nearest hero city and get home.
He looked up and smiled awkwardly, trying to come up with a name off the top of his head — one of the heroes called Batman ‘B’ when he got hit right? B for Batman, right. B… B… Bee… Bees.
“Buzz.” He said, and tried not to grimace as the cashier’s face warped with surprise. “Like the astronaut.”
This was gonna be a long trip.

San Francisco Tech Industry
Today's Twitter news cuts deep to my big fears of being in this industry. First time as a professional I've been through a recession, and seeing such wasteful and abusive management at the expense of so many's livelihoods… and knowing the pain of being laid off... and it being so bad you'd rather throw away your job and livelihood to willingly go unemployed.
Sure, they'll bounce back. But they'll struggle until then.
Building a career.
Proud of our work, keeps us going.
Working class at six figures.
Six figures but struggle to survive.
The World blames the 1% "Liberal Tech Elites" for the problems the 99% made by using the platform themselves.
The problem is thee, never me.
NIMBYs blame change and keep things broken.
The problem is the undesirables - Black People People from Oakland.
Our coworkers who got the axe and are now out on the streets begging to survive The homeless.
Criminals who organized to survive by robbing others because it's too damn expensive to live here because all of the low paying jobs aren't living wages thugs.
Man child billionaire burns millions.
Billions earned stealing tax payer money to fund his shitty car company.
To be a modern day William Randolph Hearst Charles Foster Kane.
Cuts fat for his wasted money, on a company that makes no money.
Making it harder for employees to live and survive.
Fuck Elon Musk.
Dunno, felt like writing my disjointed thoughts on everything. I'm not a Twitter employee, but close enough to some affected. It's a struggle out here if you don't have one of these jobs. Cities like San Francisco, Oakland, San Jose need to density and build to be people friendly, but people here insist on owning a home. The Bay Area and Los Angeles/Orange County is one large surburbia, causing the housing market to soar... And this balding man, whose whole personality is a 14 year old Modern Warefare troll, comes in, demanding we buy his shitty car, congesting roads, calling public transit disgusting when that's the solution to SF/LA's housing/traffic problems.
California has a lot of work ahead. I'm up for the challenge.
