Career tip #345

[ahismamiasma@lemm.ee]

This feels like an antisemitic dog whistle...

[eestileib@sh.itjust.works]

Make it even smaller and you can become Rocky Balboa's trainer.

The first style could also be a seaman on a merchant mariner vessel.

[punnyname@lemmy.world]

Right? Fuck all these small headed people that look good with beanies. I just want my ears to stay warm!

[onomatopoeia@lemmy.cafe]

Yea, I don't know anyone, anywhere I've ever worked that wore a beanie.

Except when I did construction, or mechanic, or maintenance... You know, where we were outside in the cold.

[zelaf@sopuli.xyz]

Why is this so accurate??

[subarctictundra@lemmy.ml]

Haha I see what you're referring to but what would be different in the meme in the case that it wasn't a dog whistle?

[lemjukes@lemm.ee]

Ah yes this stupid ass post that thinks baristas are making more than construction workers and forklift drivers…

[troglodytis@lemmy.world]

I wear a teeny weeny beany when I eat a tangeriney

[salvaria@lemmy.blahaj.zone]

Is a ski mask just a beanie that covers your entire head? If so, I guess this still makes sense:
Bank robber lol

[xanthrax@lemmy.world]

Why would I wear a beanie and have cold ears?!

[shanedino@lemmy.world]

To some extent it's just a representation of people who wear a beanie for functionality vs looks.

[evil_shrubbery@lemm.ee]

The villain we need

[duamerthrax@lemmy.world]

The fact the Forklift Operators are paid less then UX Designers is a crime against humanity.

[peoplebeproblems@midwest.social]

Where does one get a tiny beanie? Not because I'm a software engineer, but because it looks hilarious

[holo@lemmy.wtf]

Forklift operators yes, construction workers also yes depending on the region. In many areas of the US the majority of construction workers are undocumented workers and thus kept at or below minimum wage. Forklift operators really don't make a lot of money. Like more than general warehouse labor but even in decent states that tends to be pretty low on the spectrum.

[anticorp@lemmy.world]

I wear the bottom right beanie, but my career is of the top left. Have I broken the rules? Nobody informed me of beanie etiquette.

[anticorp@lemmy.world]

Driving a forklift is quite a bit easier than designing great user experiences, and requires a lot less training and experience.

[anticorp@lemmy.world]

I guess to assert your dominance

[duamerthrax@lemmy.world]

And I haven't seen good, modern user design.
