    It's a useless fiction for hiring, but highly effective for getting money from the dumber investors.

      I'm guessing that was bait, lol.

      Edit: Wait, was the logo similar? It was before my time.

        Our Jenkins is hosted at the DNS Hudson.
        I thought you typed Jeeves instead of Jenkins via auto correct but I guess I just didn't get it.

            The project itself is very boring. This is why I sprinkle in fun stuff on top of the project that devs will get to do once the boring part is done.

            But oh no! We had just enough time to finish the "boring part" and no time for "the rest of the project", darn it! 😞

                In a great place, the python symbol would be on both sides too. All the other ones are best just left.

                  I mean, just because they post an ad for a rocket surgeon doesn't mean they find one. At least in the US, compsci professionals do not have any trouble finding work.

                  I’ve been looking for 8 months… I’ve applied for over 100 positions and had one first round interview.

                  There is definitely trouble in the CS job market right now. I spoke to a recruiter who had no new jobs on their desk in two months.

                    Thank you. Not super techie and just needed the meme explained.

                    And btw… sounds like damn good work if you can get it.

                              Feedback when you don't get the job: "They need someone who can be up to speed right away, and they thought your Grafana might be a little light."

                                A friend of mine was applying for a job where they required "at least 5 years knowledge with Angular version X.Y.Z" (can't remember the exact version, but they asked for all three numbers).

                                He said "I've got 7 years of knowledge with version X-2 to X+2".

                                The HR person was like "But you don't have 5 years of knowledge with version X.Y.Z, so you don't fit for the job".

                                The real fun part was that version X.Y.Z had only been out for two years at that time.

                                  You're the first I've heard say that in a long time.

                                  In the rest of the world, even the West, the picture is more dire. Americans tend to avoid hiring non-Americans, and had early mover advantage on computers and the internet.

                                    Bogus job description because no-one was actually needed but the budget must be kept?

                                          This describes how most people have it deployed, yes.

                                          It gets real fun when you have custom Java plugins, Groovy script, BASH script, Windows runners, and Linux runners, all in play at the same time. Much of which is held together with hopes, dreams, and unicorn farts, willed into existence by wizards that haven't worked there in over seven years. If upper management could even comprehend the level of deferred maintenance and haphazard software hackery that birthed this electronic Gordian knot, this unholy union of decrepit software and company policy, they wouldn't sleep. Ever.
