    Anytime I see these types of terrible pics, I think of the planning this self-important asshole agonizes over while the struggling gig photographer has to keep their eyes from rolling out of their head.

    Peak narcissism and vanity, utterly shameless.

      struggling gig photographer

      Sure he doesn’t have a fancy tripod and set his iPhone 18 XL MAX or whatever on a half minute timer?

      Although these types might seek out the struggling gig photographer just to feel power over somebody. Lol

        You’re right, that definitely could have happened too. I just can’t help but think of him trying to describe the shot to somebody. Though it would be equally pathetic to see him snap the photo on timer, run over, look at pic, reset the timer, try again… for like 50 times.

          I think you can use the Apple watch as a remote shutter button, so he wouldn’t need to do laps in the parking lot like a dad trying to get a family photo. But it is fun to imagine none the less.

        this looks more realistic because of the annoyed face the subject is making for having to work at the pub.

        i left my previous job because of bullshit like this. i need a better career.

    I used to work with him - he’s the CTO at a link-in-bio company, and yes, this is how he lives.

    Fun fact. I used to hate myself and the work I was doing when working there, though the pay was good. I lasted four months

    How shit do you have to be at coding to need to do it at 5am instead of enjoying sunrise on the beach?

    This dude needs to get good.

    Is getting up at 5am supposed to be a flex? I’m a morning person and wake up at 5 every day just because my body is done sleeping.

      Couple of losers who suck at sleeping in!

      Actually I’m a night owl and people have different sleep schedules and they aren’t anything to brag about. People who brag about being morning people like the douche on the csr hood are the worst.

      Exactly!

      The most important thing isn’t when you get up or how long you work, but how much you get done in the time you allocate for work. Someone working 12h/day or whatever probably has a productivity problem.

      I wake up around 5 most days and fucking hate it. It’s really weird, when I was depressed I could get a full night’s sleep, but now that I’m properly medicated it seems to never happen. WHY?!

      In his defense, I also have a west facing window in my office and it is absolute ass trying to get anything done from 3-5.

      Also, dude has obviously never worken up before 8am at any point since college, since you won’t get a sunrise like that anywhere in California, and that’s not what a Miami sunrise looks like

    Oohh I know a guy exactly like this. Moderately rich, moderately successful in business and money and power is literally all he cares about and money is all he has. He has kids he doesn’t love, he only cares about "his legact’ and “his dynasty”

    He’s built and crashed like a hundred start-ups and a few became moderately successful so he has momey

    He beliefs he is universally loved, but everyone including his kids hate h because he’s an insufferable asshole who uses money to control people around him

    He’s obsessed with what people think about him and -again- thinks he’s super loved, but he’s super insecure as well, so posts pictures showing off his body building results to everyone but he pictures are AI enhanced which makes it all the sadder. He’s obsessed with staying young and not dying so he takes these special stat young IV drips, that sort of shit.

    Did I mention his relentless narcissism and psychopathic behavior where he loves to tot with people’s lives, just to fuck with them? Family included, if course

    He is a sad little man, really, whi one day will be buried in a golden casket but here will be nobody to say goodbye

        Made me think he was describing that one dude who has been on magazines, being written about because he takes infusions of his son’s blood believing it will keep him young.

          But which one that has been on magazines and had a phase where they infused the blood of the young? Idk, what you’re saying is just not very specific 🤷‍♂️

        He is exactly the same as these tech oligarchs. He possibly is a multi millionaire, I know he has a reasonable amount of money but watching him try to look like these billionaires all the time is just hilariously sad. He continually buys shits that’s too expensive and that he doesn’t need and ends up selling it months later.at this point, money is all he has. He has no people that want to be around him (with the exception of a new young sexy bomb gold digger he acquired recently) he has no real power, even his kids hate him yet he keeps dumping more money than he’s earning so I’m assuming he’ll die with nothing

        There’s no way actual work is getting done. I hate these pics of people “coding” in super unergonomic positions. If I’m really working on something important, I’m at a desk at home in comfy clothes.

          That’s my secret, I’m literally always coding. Sitting at my desk? Coding. At a cafe? Coding on my laptop. Standing in line? Coding on my phone. Enjoying drinks with friends? Refactoring code in my head. Asleep? Coming up with new coding ideas to write down when I wake up. It’s a lifestyle bro, you wouldn’t get it.

    I don’t get this picture. Should it have a “I’m to busy to enjoy life” feeling or a “I struggle so much, I don’t have a decent working place” feeling? I definitly don’t read this as a success picture
