Lately, I've noticed a lot of discussions about the supposed collapse of the tech job market. It’s like people are eagerly waiting for the bubble to burst, almost as if they want tech jobs to devaluate. Or maybe it’s just a backlash against the rapid growth and high salaries that have defined tech field for so long?

I get that the tech industry has had its fair share of excesses and issues, but it feels like there's a deeper narrative at play here. Are people outside of tech just tired of hearing about high paychecks and perks? Is there a sense of "finally, they're getting what they deserve" from those who feel tech has been overhyped? Or is it just envy or jealousy?

This is the First time I am hearing of any of such claims.

Maybe, it's the general misconception that tech workers do less labor and get more pay than hose doing manual physical labor

I wonder why those who think like this don't get into tech to have their share of the cake.

In my opinion, I think people are too busy to think of such.
However, so far as you keep growing in your path, what other people think shouldn't worry you.

Yea some people feel they do less work and have very high pay especially when someone is working remotely making money those working 8 - 5pm

When it is not a person's work sector, people tend to think the work is easy. If only they know the hours put into only debugging
