Wtf is that even legal ? <| sep |> I don ' t have any issues talking to people , but I find that when high I ' m so much funnier and so much more enjoyable . I make friends with guys I dislike and have issues with at work when we have our work night blow outs . I guess I ' m too uptight around work . <| sep |> And you need to understand what per capita means . <| sep |> You assume we have this one . We still have a month to go . <| sep |> I would say ' no '. You have more to offer than a new junior developer . You understand development processes . You are more experience with analyzing problems , dealing with clients and timelines , etc . I think the best thing to do is to build up your experience in the new technology and ask for what your worth . Work on open source projects or your own personal projects . If you ' re currently working right now , try to get your company to allow you to build some small internal applications using the newer technology . Use that as a proof of concept for future company development . After that you can state on your resume that you used that new technology . No need to specify how big or small that project was .
