    Yeah, "solving puzzles". If that's the case, surely it can wait - why does it need to be solved at 2 am? Anyway, if you're gonna be a slave for $200k please go ahead, its yo choice…

    On call typically means you gotta be online and respond within 15 minutes if paged. That's abusive. If you want a person to do that, then pay them for that. As an example, on call …

    Yeah right, every damn thing is because of someone else. Start taking responsibility for your actions.

    Its very easy to understand. Broadly speaking, in any culture you'll find two types of people. 1. Those who question existing systems and accept the historical truths even if it do…

    For a start, do you have a better method? Let us know which country is "not totally corrupt" and why is it so? Checks and balances in any system reduces efficiency and places a low…

    Yes, you are over thinking. Maintain your current setup as long as possible. If at job#1, there is an indication by managers that you're not meeting expectations, then drop job#2. …
