Think: Do you remember your expectations when you came here?

1. Confused messages

Little white student left a message on “Black Uncle talk front”, the content is as follows:
I am a graduate of more than a year working in guangzhou for a year or so, for some reason left guangzhou to shenzhen city work, into an entrepreneurial company, the company began to form large front team, but the work is very busy, sometimes until 1 o 'clock in the overtime is the norm, feel don't have time to improve technology, now very entanglements whether to move the company, Or go back to Wuhan and slow down your life with your original friends. If you have any suggestions, thank you very much.Copy the code

First of all, I would like to thank xiaobai for her question, which once again caused me to think deeply. Although I am not a big man, but on the north, guangzhou and Shenzhen floating life is also deep experience.

Second, personal status quo

Those who follow my official account know that I am in Shenzhen, the pilot area of reform and opening up, which is the top city in the Internet industry in southern China. It is common to earn more than 20,000 yuan in Shenzhen, and most of them are the pioneers of college students who came to Shenzhen first. Of course, there are 2019 graduates, to tell the truth, I envy very much, there is a hui, upon graduation, entered Tencent, the annual salary of 20W +. Who doesn’t want to make more money?

But I am a crayon programmer ah, the land of Shenzhen is full of students from famous universities, the outstanding students of various universities, so the competition is big, the resources of high-paying jobs are seized by them.

My current job is front-end development for a small company. Technically, I am still at the front end of Vue in modern history. As for node, RN, Flutter and other big front ends of modern history, I can only scratch the surface, maybe not even scratch the surface.

Every interview positioning is the primary front-end, I feel that I will be eliminated from the front-end industry, every month there are always a few midnight can not sleep, worried heart panic.

Someone advised me to return to the new line early, I said: “back, where do I go to work?

What’s more, I finally got used to the fast pace of life in the big city!

My record of formal schooling is very low, just ordinary 2 this school, and still be political kind school. My technology is not wide enough, the fresh technology, the root has not actual combat development, the big factory of first-tier city recruit me to go in high salary training ah? Occasionally stay up late to write a technical essay and get sprayed with water. My hairline seems to be getting taller as I get older.Copy the code

Iii. Personal achievements

Who has not wanted to go to Dachang to see the world, but some self-knowledge, but also a glimmer of hope.

In October 2016, I started to touch the front-end and taught myself the system knowledge.

In 2018, I was lucky enough to join the front end team of Pacificauto. Due to the backward technology, I worked harder than others in the team this year. I often went home from work and studied.

Plain and a year later, in 2019, I changed a new owner, began to use the rest time to summarize previous project, it is my pleasure to an article “the” Pacific all the first figure wang “touch hands teach you cut flush” on the nuggets, but I contacted the operation hot, help me to cancel because I have left, such revealed that the company name to write technology is not suitable.

In 2019, I hope you can start again with me.

Fourth, seek breakthrough

There are times when I’m happy with who I am because I’m doing better and earning more and more every year, but I’m also confused about the future and depressed. But on the whole, I was improving: I was making slow progress, getting left behind by the young and promising, but I was still better off than those who didn’t work hard.

In the new first-tier cities, the pressure is high and the salary is relatively high, which is seen by everyone. It can’t be cheaper than the new first-tier cities, can it? Isn’t the small partner laughing dead in the toilet?

What to do in this stressful environment? Look for a side hustle! Take on a freelance job, set up a stall, learn to get a promotion or raise or change jobs. Look for opportunities in your life and seize them.

I used to be like a frog in a well, looking at everything must have a return, to have hope, only care about the present, think others so great force, oneself so color pen, how can be like others as a month over ten thousand?

Now I, step by step growth is my biggest insistence.

Five, about receiving orders

Talk about the well-worn topic of programmers taking private jobs in search of a breakthrough.

I did not take over the private work, but some have partners or take the initiative to tell the pit of party A’s father, pure stay up late to live, some live may be divided into the preceding paragraph and the end of the money, some small partners for the end of the money to die, must meet the requirements of party A, to get, and even the end of the money do not give (of course not common).

A wechat friend’s story, connected to a small program, about more than 1W appearance, I heard that it is a double rest + work days to stay up late, took half a month to make, sounds good! But the requirements are very strict, change very annoying, he said no more private work. There are good examples, of course, of making a fortune in silence.

If you ask me if I take projects, just give it a try! If there’s money to be made, you should try it, right? If you regret it, you will never pick it up again! Practice is the sole criterion for testing truth.

Code Life

In the micro channel technology group to know a friend, surnamed Liu, add me, remarks is: Hunan fellow, or pretty kind.

“Where is Uncle Black moving the bricks?”

“I am in Shenzhen, new to Shenzhen, a lot of care.”

“I’m also in Shenzhen. I’ve been here for three years and I’m going back to Changsha.”

“Why? If you come, you come from Shenzhen.”

“Shenzhen has only endless rent, endless pig’s foot rice and rice in a barrel. I am old, and Shenzhen belongs to you young people.”

“All right! Bon voyage and goodbye!”

Listen to liu elder brother’s words, I think, after 3 years oneself can also be same as him?

There is no right or wrong choice, life is only you dare to choose. If you feel that you are under a lot of pressure in a first-tier city, it is difficult to survive, and you cannot find a breakthrough, and you have reached a bottleneck, then returning to a new first-tier city is not necessarily a bad thing. The new line can give, perhaps not pension, but can soothe your heart that has no place to put.

I also thought about going back to changsha, and even asked some of my friends, but the results were not ideal, either in terms of low wages, or few development jobs and few opportunities. Black uncle if back to Changsha, estimated monthly salary of 3k is not a problem, ha ha ha……

Code life, waiting for you in first-tier cities, also waiting for you in new first-tier cities.

Vii. Concluding remarks

I will keep you updated.
