Fuck you Sup Forums I wish I never listened to you.
lmao hahaha
nice thread op you got me LOL XD

You are the most flexible and able to work on Unix based operating systems or embedded.
Plus anything that webshit runs on top of.
If you want to hook into hardware learn ASM.
Otherwise es tea ef yew
faggots get high or something
The only C jobs that don't pay donkey shit are in finance, or niche architectural roles in FANG-tier companies.
Neither of which you'll get into without at least a high-tier state school on your resume.
Also that sounds pretty reputable OP.
I'd be happy to hire a talented C programmer who had experience with drivers.
Pretty impressive.
Maybe ask for a raise compare job offers.
What I'm reading:
>take advice from Sup Forums
>spend 2 years actually learning a skill instead of anime and shitposting
>get a decent job
>make well above the average wage working 12 hours a day because ???
>somehow believed this would get him a gf
>has untreated morbid ideation
You should probably figure out why you're working so much and fix that so you can work on improving yourself.
This.
Smoke a doobie and self reflect that you are a competent C programmer.
That's rare in a world of mobile web devs.
Obviously there's less need for you but literally have no competition for companies that actually require you.
All the millenials think it's too hard so you will stick out very easily.
I'd rather take a C programmer who can be left alone to build within only the limits of his imagination.
Web devs are so limited in their ideas and ability.
They just build the next task required of them.
C programmers can work on kernels in routers or just a device library.
They are extremely flexible.
at least you work in the language you learned
there aren't any jobs for C/C++ programmers where I live, just web memes and .NET
This.
My friend got his dream job maintaining Linux based workstations at a hospital.
Applying his learning.
I learned C++ with intentions of using it and I'm stuck building js applications under strict supervision.
Such messy trash in comparison to the strict nature I've grown accustomed.
>needs a gf
loser
spend the next ten years working your shitty job saving up your paychecks, move to thailand or some other cheap asian country and spend the rest of your life retired, never working and fucking qt3.14 asian girls its simple op
And Sup Forums laughs as Java
Is working with c really that bad? I'm learning c to start my carrier in embedded development but I dont want to suffer for all my life. Would c# or java be a better choice?
>my carrier
what, your aircraft carrier?
Some people in here seem to think that they "deserve" a woman when they fulfill some objectives or something lmao
>device driver programmer job
THAT'S THE BEST JOB, IF YOU'RE GOOD AT IT.
THE FUCKING WORLD IS YOUR OYSTER.
>first job after two years of studying something employable
vs
>others who get no job after studying useless stuff for 4 years
>working for much higher than average yearly pay
vs
>working for minimum wage
And still you complain? In 5 years, your salary will double, and double again in 10.
Python is better for cash money because of le machine learning meme
Still good to learn C though so that at some point you can work on the infrastructure behind the Python libraries.
>working 60 hours a week programming in C for only $80k
Demand a raise? You're getting robbed if you seriously have those skills for that level of pay.
Could be his first job.
>Sup Forums shits on java
>gets me a job right out of school with 0 overtime and they don't force overtime
>work 10 hours M-Th and have every F-Su off
Feels good man
Stop complaining jesus christ. Money and shit doesn't get you a girl. I know some fat fuck ginger, who's only pussy he had ever fucked was a hooker in Vegas (not even lying anons) never had a girlfriend (still serious) was too fat to sit in a gaming chair designed to hold people
No, but the job market for C is trash.
that's because you chose a shitty code monkey driver dev job
There are more creative uses for C and ASM than being a driver dev.
we all wish we were graphics designers, anyone who claims to enjoy working in this field is a liar
>he isn't comfy test automation developer
user...
>You are only allowed to know 1 language!
This is what Sup Forums literally believes!
Is it that bad in burgerland? I've found 4 open positions just in my area and they hire people with little to no experience.
Well aren't most in here Americans so...
>320k a year in 10 years
Boy you are stupid
as much as I hate tripfags, he's right. Developers are only getting more and more scarce, as with any engineering field. Assuming OP doesn't beta out of negotiating and is rotating jobs every 2-3 years their salary will definitely climb to at least 350k burgerbucks at the end of the 2020s
t. HR fag
Isn't job market for c developers supposed to be trash? I don't know what to believe anymore.
It is retarded to think that doing A gets you B if A have nothing to do with B.
Common examples are learning C in order to learn java or working 60h/week in order to spend time with girls.
Serves you right for falling for Sup Forums memes. Never go full meme.
Americans should be banned from Sup Forums and /ck/
His dream job was IT at a hospital?
Dude.
Learn Java, Be white. King of the pajeets.
Why this shit tides
If you want money as developer,learn Java or Pajeetscript
>listening to Sup Forums in a first place
this.
Pick a language Sup Forums shittalks instead. That's where the money is. The vocal majority of the Sup Forums are hipsters who brag off who can code in the most obscure or convoluted language.

>market flooding with pajeets
>more and more scarce
O i am laffin
