Tips for entering full time work for the first time (lemmy.ca)
 

For the last few years I've been working as an hourly part time full stack software engineer remotely, but now that school is done, I'm switching to a full time role. What are some things to keep in mind?

When I was hourly, I knew when to start and stop working because I'd simply clock in and out, but with a salary, it feels less clearly defined. There's also "unlimited" PTO, but when is it acceptable to use it?

You do know that many of these processes are done with on-device intelligence?

Also, telecoms in Canada are worse with privacy since they sell your location data to third parties.

Why move? I came from an iPhone 13 and I'm so much happier now.

Google Pixels have call screening and anti spam features built in, such a life saver. Even if carriers don't implement any protections, my phone will continue to do it on its own.
