It’s crazy how senior some mouse jiggler jobs are - should be studied.
Probably skilled people - who are the backstop, the saviour, they know how things work and how to fix them.
but for some reason nobody gives them enough work to do - or they’ve orchestrated it to be so.
I'm 38.
At this point of my life/career, I have so many friends working corporate W2 jobs making $200-400K/year (mostly in NYC/NJ/PA corridor) who just don't actually work that much.
One friend makes $250K as a manager at a biotech... all he does is send pictures of his chicken coop or other DIY projects all day during the week.. no idea what value he actually provides his company.
Then there's my "jiggler" friend who you might recall... guy makes $250-300K and just plugs a "mouse jiggler" into his laptop and just goes to the gym, homeschools his kids, tans, does yard work... all day. I ask him what he does and he can't even articulate it...
Another friend makes $150K at a remote startup and just travels around the world all the time... don't ask don't tell situation on where people are at any given time... but does seemingly little actual work.. maybe 1 hour a day.
This is truly what's going on out there... BS W2 jobs all over the place. And AI is a bubble?
Really?
