I mean the man is right. I am much more expensive to maintain than the theoretical "Ummdustry-equivalant processor" (UEP). plus I have a lower duty cycle, am less convinient to employ/dismiss and lack scalability. That's why I'm terrified of being replaced (economically) by it.

    one thing i wish i had internalized and developed a profound understanding of early on in life is that, from the perspective of our employers, we have no value beyond that which we generate for them, minus what we're costing them. that i ever bought into the "we're family" and "we care about our employees" rhetoric is one of the things i look back on and want to backhand my 20 yr old self

    if whatever it is you're bringing to the table can be gotten for cheaper than you're getting paid for it (even if it's garbage AIslop), guess what: you're getting at-will-workplaced
