I should probably be a system administator.

Okay, I have a Github

it just doesn't happen naturally for me. I was doing a Codewars assessment and I was really slow at the start to even remember syntax or how to start. Granted, I haven't coded in a while. The bad thing is, I forgot what type of position I was applying for so I didn't know what the assessment would be.

 

I don't do well during interview assessments.

I'm slow and rusty.

Should I give up on trying to be a developer?

Thank you for the help.

I come back April 7th. It's going to be weird. I'm just going to arrive and be homeless.

I'm in Bangkok, Thailand.

 

I really do hope people are going to read this.

I was living in my mother's house in Hawaii. I went to Thailand for a bit and a water pump broke and flooded an area.

We needed to shut off the electricity urgently.

People who have come to the house have said the refrigerator is full of maggots and the house has toxic black mold.

My mom got a second opinion from a realtor and now she's selling the house.

So I wanted to go to Thailand for a bit and now I'm homeless. I have my clothes, computers, and musical instruments there and I'm probably going to lose them.

I'm so depressed I honestly feel like ending my life. I'm on Lexapro and have been hospitalized several times. I don't know what to do.

My mom will barely speak to me.

Do you do better with direct applying?

[–] foosedev@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

I have IT skills like administration, help desk, linux

Yes, Hawaii imposes its tax laws on all companies.

Thanks, that is my main source too.

Any bachelor's?

[–] foosedev@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Check with your local Chamber of Commerce. They might have internships you qualify for.

 

I have less than a month left before I fly home from Bangkok.

I really do not want to.

If I had a remote job I would stay out here indefinitely.

So, I have less than a month. What is a good strategy for finding a remote job? What are some good positions? I have been looking for IT work but that seems kind of saturated at the moment.

 

I am looking for an online forum to discuss my resume and portfolio.

A forum where maybe I can meet some potential future employers.

Where are some good places on the Internet, besides Reddit, to look for this?

 

Does being in Hawaii automatically disqualify me from 95% of tech jobs?

 

Has anyone successfully found a job using LinkedIn's 'Easy Apply' options?

 

What are some good books similar to the feelings and disturbing nature that American Psycho creates?
