investment banker meets software engineer

#shorts

[timothywoodruff]

If your a banker doesn’t know that software engineers can make that kind of money, then you probably don’t want him as your banker.

[friednoodlee]

Imagine meeting someone and the first thing he said "i make six figures"

[lowearthsurfer]

"I was up all night formatting PowerPoints"
You didn't have to roast them that hard

[lOs]

6 figures could be anything from 100, 000 to 999, 999 . That’s a wide range

[skiie]

Literally no investment banker speaks like this. If an investment banker found out that you made six figures they would try to get you to invest with their financial institution. Nobody in the financial institution would speak down to anyone else knowing that they had tons of money. That's a wasted opportunity

[jakedaly]

It’s gonna really shock him when he finds out I’m making $135k a year welding.

[mogunnzg]

You know banks have software engineers too, right?

[Boduo]

"I make six figures" that's a good way to start a convo

[pwh]

The continuation is-
Investment Banker: "Then I'll take all of the credit and money for the labor that you did almost all of"

[danielhricmail]

That "good talk" at the end just ties it all together

[DelGray]

Nah it should be both of these guys vs someone who owns a sanitation truck.

[bryancline]

Me: makes 6 figures
Software engineer and investment banker: oh and what do you do?
Me: I glue down floors.
Them: oh...

[BobTheGodly]

Truck drivers willing to drive for a week at a time can make 200k a year. Some places even train cdl drivers themselves. Your best asset for these kind of jobs being young.

[AAron-grjk]

The "you do all the work" part is accurate.

[RobinButButter]

This mans be looking like Tachibana from Yakuza 0

[tenou]

Well, technically the banker should do the idea, hiring, networking, implementation and legal setup.

Those days are gone, SEs are getting laid off left and right everywhere, their demand is also decreasing. With increased use of AI, firms need only few SEs who can get the job done through AI faster, which means most of those who aspire don't get it. There are more people with computer degrees and firms need only few, so it is mostly likely to be like hunger games among the aspirants to get the job, and among SEs to keep the job or atleast it is going to be like that soon. The competition is too high, so don't be fooled by salary numbers, it is reserved only for the few. And don't forget recruiters these days also have political agenda. So it is not a guaranteed career.

Very real conversation between steve jobs and Wozniak before starting apple

Jobs: so ill come up with the idea and u do all the work
Woz: oh cool... Wait wha-

[tardersauce]

There are also like lawyers, and doctors, like not every well paying profession is BANK

[Goblinsharkhundredsofthem]

The best way to make 6 figures is by robbing a bank
