Thinking about quitting Tech?
<p>Ever had one of those days, weeks or years? Have you thought, even briefly, about giving up the tech life and pursuing another career dream? Spurred on by a recent Reddit discussion, Sanj, Gwen and Neil look into the reasons why people might occasionally be tempted, and share their own half-baked alternate career plans. Learn which of your hosts was once a trainee electrician, who'd love to be a mile-high dentist, who took a crash-course in pub ownership, and who just wants to be paid to be on the beach.</p> <p>In the stand-up, everyone's still hiring, everyone's waiting for shiny new toys to arrive, and two of our crew go cold turkey on caffeine (one more deliberately than the other). </p> <p>TIMESTAMPS:</p> <p>00:00 Start<br> 01:06 The Stand-Up<br> 08:58 This Week's Epic<br> 24:45 The Wash-Up</p> <p>LINKS DISCUSSED THIS WEEK:</p> <p><a href="https://www.kia.com/uk/new-cars/ev6/">Kia EV6</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.stickermule.com/">Sticker Mule</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/cscareerquestions/comments/sm54ri/anyone_else_feel_the_constant_urge_to_leave_the/">Reddit: Anyone else feel the constant urge to leave the field and become a plumber/electrician/brickie?</a></p> <p><a href="https://lisacrispin.com/2022/02/20/independent-consultant-ready-to-help-more-teams-with-testing-and-quality/">Lisa Crispin: I'm independent!</a></p> <p><a href="https://touchstonesupport.org.uk/">Touchstone</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2022/feb/13/we-are-exhausted-and-burntout-vets-in-crisis">The Guardian: 'Relentless calls and constant abuse': why Britain's vets are in crisis</a></p>

Not Asking For Pay Rises?
<p>With inflation skyrocketing and energy bills about to go through the roof, the governer of the Bank of England has this week warned against workers asking for substantial pay rises, asking everybody to deal with the "pain" of the rising cost-of-living, whilst simultaneously taking home over £500,000 a year. We get deep into when and how we should ask for a pay rise, whether cost-of-living increases should be a given, how companies can better support employees during tough financial times, and Sanj declares some strong feelings which may lead to our Patreon earnings being diverted into legal fees.</p> <p>In the wonderful world of our stand-up section, we've got busy hiring times, scary talks, Xbox dev kits and EV research. Plus, the world's shortest news quiz! </p> <p>TIMESTAMPS:</p> <p>00:00 Start<br> 01:16 The Stand-Up<br> 08:20 This Week's Epic<br> 23:26 The Wash-Up</p> <p>LINKS DISCUSSED THIS WEEK:</p> <p><a href="https://abookapart.com/products/resilient-management">Lara Hogan - Resilient Management</a></p> <p><a href="https://humansplus.tech/">Humans Plus Tech podcast</a></p> <p><a href="https://ecologi.com/">Ecologi</a></p> <p><a href="https://techtree.dev/">TechTree</a></p> <p><a href="https://youtu.be/eHp3MbsCbMg">YouTube: Uncharted movie trailer</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-60334842">BBC News: Charles met Queen two days before testing positive</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-60206564">BBC News: Don't ask for a big pay rise, warns Bank of England boss</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/utilities/what-is-the-energy-price-cap/">Money Saving Expert: What is the Energy Price Cap?</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/business/2022/feb/09/bank-of-england-boss-urged-to-shadow-care-worker-for-a-day-amid-low-pay-row">The Guardian: Bank of England boss urged to shadow care worker for a day amid low pay row</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/feb/07/bank-of-england-wage-restraint-cost-of-living-governor">The Guardian: The definition of levelling down: the Bank of England calling for wage 'restraint'</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-02-04/boris-johnson-rebukes-boe-s-bailey-over-u-k-wages-remark">Bloomberg: Boris Johnson Rebukes Bank of England’s Bailey Over Wages Remark</a></p> <p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/posts/stephen-clayton-a31006221_staffappreciation-rslrenewables-activity-6896780761396326400-A1nP">LinkedIn: CEO of RSL Renewables covering staff energy bills</a></p>
