I was hired as a senior software developer.



I was briefed about a project while interviewing at a client.



When I officially started with this company, somehting went wrong.



Eventually, the client declined my CV, and, from then, I started to feel that something changed.



I was doing absolutely nothing for 2 months.



Suddenly, a manager assigned to me an internal project, saying it is intended to ease the work of managers.



So, I worked on the project relentlessly, until I achieve objectives.



That's when it was decided I will be staffed at a client that uses the same technological stack.



At the end, the manager who was in charge of project didn't want the source code nor anything. That's when I realised it was a fake project.



Is it bad news for a senior developer to undergo such a process?



Or was it legitimate?



PS: I was let go during extended probation for subjective reasons during my previous job.

For the last 10-11 months, I am working in a research industry in France where my task is to debug C++ spaghetti code written over a period of several years by my current supervisor. It is a team of 2: just I and my supervisor. Diurnally, I am posed with a "bug of the day" to get out of this C++ code. My supervisor generally gives me about 15-30 minutes to solve it and then accosts me about whether or not the task is completed and then rinses and repeats this until the end of the day. Off-late, my supervisor has been holding 6-7 hour long "meetin

          One-line joke

          A one-liner is a joke that is delivered in a single line. A good one-liner is said to be pithy - concise and meaningful. [1] Comedians and actors use this comedic method as part of their act, e.g. Jimmy Carr, Tommy Cooper, Rodney Dangerfield, Norm Macdonald, Ken Dodd, Stewart Francis, Zach Galifianakis, Mitch Hedberg, Anthony Jeselnik, Milton Jones, Shappi Khorsandi, Jay London, Mark Linn-Baker, Demetri Martin, Groucho Marx, Dan Mintz, Emo Philips, Tim Vine, Steven Wright and Henny Youngman and Arnold Schwarzenegger. [ citation needed ] Many fictional characters are also known to deliver one-liners, including James Bond, who usually includes pithy and laconic quips after disposing of a villain. [ citation needed ] Examples "A baby seal walks into a club." "A dyslexic man walks into a bra." (Anonymous) "There are three types of people, those who can count and those who can't." "Venison's dear, isn't it?" (Jimmy Carr) "An escala
