Yea, like 6 of them and their space agencies budget is 200 million USD
I don't think it's farfetched that a Chinese company has far greater capabilities than what they have

Totally sounds like by choice by the wording
Come on, it's pretty believable a satellite corporation is selling imagery to Iran for money lol
Fair enough. I actually want a job like that too eventually because my coding job is a nightmare of being around the worst people ever and trying to keep up with my much better teammates (who all hyper-optimized their life for a coding career, hence being the worst people ever) in the cutthroat environment
That being said, I never imagined it would be a job I like, just one I dislike less
I've never done anything but retail and white collar but what was fun about those jobs? The work seems pretty monotonous and mindless
At least with retail I was working in a country with nicer people than america so the customers were generally kind
I find white collar workers largely have keeping up with the Joneses syndrome and spend way too much money on shit just because other people do
I don't really see the lack of appeal other than the judgement of other white collar people
Money... My parents were both factory workers and I'm a white collar worker. I made more as an intern when I was 19 than they both did together at the peak of their career
They retired with only 100k in the bank in the UK after working an entire lifetime
What is your specific role and responsibility? Big range of factory jobs
I get it you have no money contrains but really crazy stories
They do, but the culture makes people generally not care about long term financial health and taking on debt/spending beyond their means to live in the moment
Obviously, this is sick af in a country with good security nets but in USA it's just a way to make people massive irresponsible consumers for the capitalists benefit
I honestly think this is true from my experience chatting about labour with coders
Also because they're grateful to their bosses they get to do their interests as a job. I'd imagine for researchers this is a massive deal
Americans were mostly against Vietnam because a bunch of their family and friends were coming back in bodybags
I don't think any amount of Ukrainian casualties would make any big difference in American perception
You forgot to mention job security
Imagine working super hard, burning out for a little bit, then getting fired for low performance
