@prologic@twtxt.net I don’t know how to phrase the answer without sounding too bitter. 🤣 Let’s just say, nope, it won’t work.

In-reply-to » By the way, did you know that I have a five month notice period? Starting next year, it’ll be six months. Germany is the opposite of ā€œhire and fireā€, but it applies to both parties.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Yeah, I’ve heard of that option (ā€œAufhebungsvertragā€). I guess the real challenge will be finding something else that isn’t just as silly.

And on the bright side, you don’t even have to hand over anything.

They actually say that with a straight face. (Did I mention that already?) ā€œThe age of maintainership is over. Anyone can now contribute to any project at any time.ā€

@movq@www.uninformativ.de If you really like to, you can try to negotiate with your employer that you can leave earlier. At least some mates were successful in that. I mean, it’s also in the company’s interest to not have to pay someone who has already mentally resigned long ago.

And on the bright side, you don’t even have to hand over anything. Your boss doesn’t have to look for a successor, so they can just let you go even sooner. This AI shit will simply continue whatever you did, no problem!!

It’s so crazy. I should probably also look for something else. :-(

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Are you able to set a level of standards and expectations in the repo you are the maintainer of? šŸ¤”
