I Quit Amazon after 2 Months | Reaction 

Thanks to Xue for joining me! I see your guys' feedback on the react videos. In general, I think react content can have its place. Especially for highly technical content, e.g. reacting to whitepapers, blog posts. IMO it makes it easier to follow the papers and easier to learn. That's the type of content I personally enjoy making the most because I get to learn/teach as well.

honored to be here

Gotta love the FAQ disclaimer. That was the best part of the video. NGL

i'm happy that you got a girlfriend.

As a person going through some bad things mentally, I saw the amazon video a few months ago and decided on staying consistent with something which lifted my mood up a lot and it helped me regain some control. Although my situation was not as bad as yours but thanks for the advice neetcode.(sorry for bad english).

I'm so glad to see Prime react your video and you react to his reaction video. It was so exciting for me when I saw him clicking on your video in his reaction subreddit during his live stream (yes, I posted your video on that subreddit :D ) Both of you are my favorite RU-vidr!

this is highly motivating, during the live stream too I started coding immediately and now I feel the same :)

Please, please be sober, you need to just sit through the difficult times without help from anything and let your mind and body adjust to the current situations. Try not to form any addictions during that time. Wait for yourself calm down and reset. It might take minutes, hours, days, months but the best thing is to give yourself time to recover. Then slowly build yourself up again by doing small talks and grow back into the person you were without all the negative feelings. Above all do it as a natty, you will be set for life.

You're a truly amazing person, Wish you all the best really ❤

Dude, I had no idea. Well. That's crazy. Wish you the best!

gawd this is such a bro community! happy to be here ❤

I can't wait til theprimeagen reacts to this lol

It's not cringe ... U taught newcomers a lesson... I'm also in this industry for 3+ yrs... Thanks bro ❤️

Now we need a live with you and theprimeagen , that would be amazing

I get the obsession part. Sometimes it’s hard for me to do many things at once and succeed at them. But if I almost obsess about one thing then I succeed in it. And it’s also that I want to obsess in it, I think about it all day if I’m not doing it, and when I am, I’m happy to do it. So for me obsessing over it is good and helps me a lot. I don’t want to do anything else. This should be done while also having a healthy lifestyle though

I know your vids before knowing Prime's. Love you both.

I can't wait for the reaction to the reaction of the reaction 😮

I love these two guys.

When was this live streamed ? I enabled notifications but never get these live notifications for me :(

I remember my first job after my undergrad, working in one of the Tier 1 banks in the US as a software engineer, my manager said quite a similar thing in the beginning, we have a production issue going on, and they are kind of busy at the moment.

I like what you said that "If you stay at that place, you become worse that you are and then you stay worse!!" I know that and have experienced that. I stayed in my last job and i was just bunch of waste of time. I should have left earlier but i got lazy and I am paid heavy proce for that. Stilly paying it because that gone time is not gonna come back and i regreat it!!

Is it a recursive reaction video?

"no not my girlfriend" thats why i clicked the video 😂😂😂😂😂

Neetcode you are the reason a majority of people have jobs in FAANG today ❤❤❤❤❤

finally I can watch 3 videos at the same time

Hi! What did you say at the others interviews after you quit Amazon? How did you explain working for only 2onths there?

only prime can compare lsd and vscode

BRUH! You gonna show that tag for whole video????

25:30 yes and no. If you want to get a stable job, you don't need to obsesse. It's all up to you. If you wan't to climb to the top of programmers, you need to give up everything, if not someone else will and grab that spot. It's more of how do you define success and how far do you want to go than if it's ok to obsesse about something.

I like Prime and I like you, but I think Prime was a bit too hard on you here. Or rather -- he was saying things that have worked for HIM and not necessarily understanding that different people have different needs. Like, me -- I refuse to stay in a hostile work environment. I know I can't be everyone's best friend, but if I walk into work and my stomach starts hurting because I hate it there -- real talk -- it's time to find something else. The world is not just one place -- and things CAN be better (it's a lie to think that the same thing will happen everywhere). There's the saying, "God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things I can, and wisdom to know the difference." Listening to Prime it sounds like the correct thing to do ALL THE TIME is to stay, tough is out and figure out a path forward at the job. And that is correct -- sometimes. Other times the best thing to do is LEAVE. Love and respect what you do, Neetcode. Let's go!!! :)

respect++

The ending is so neat.

no drugs no vscode

Y'all smashed

W Neetcode W Sloptuber W React Andy

Do u take adhd meds cuz I’m trying to get mine to help

I would caution people about taking psych advice from any compsci guy. Despite good intentions and maybe some right takes, probably go to a professional for stuff life this.

nah for sure the thing about training by failing is just not true. It's good to hear at best, and not even that for us cynical enough to jsut go "bro." I'd assume if there's something amazon is not short of is money, so they are fine with spending some money on HR and some interns just to try luck. That's pocket money to them. You would assume these companies make x10 the money they make, but they don't, cause they don't care, they just higher managers who say "don't ask questions" and that's good enough. It's a shame because if only one of these companies decided to pay their employees proportionally and not dump their money on boiler plate roles or publicity every other company would raise the stakes as well and the world would become straight up richer.

cant wait for a reaction to the reaction to reacting to i quit amazon video.

Waiting for the next prime react to this video!

We need tech-youtuber boxing

@ThePrimeTimeagen I think you should react back on this one.

O'Reilly book is on top of LRU cache

it's the best

There is a book called "How stress is good for you and how to get good at it" it's based on research and very good

Amazon does not fulfill its delivery promises. No supervisor at Amazon can change this. I've canceled my "membership" and recommend everyone else do the same.

I need a reaction to the reaction's reaction.

Obviously, you should just be together. Problem solved.

Xue has a great question. Obsession over a subject can lead to success? Do you have to be obsessed? Well, the bigger the Dharma, the bigger the D. When you have kids, you're obsessed with treating your kids right. And that's what makes a parent successful. Obsession of doing the right choices. Yes, being overly obsessed is not healthy at all, both for a kid or the parent. But in a general perspective, the parent is obsessed with their kids. They literally call them their life, their purpose, if that's not obsession, what is? Same with every other aspect in life. See where @NeetCodeIO is coming from now? Obsession comes in different spectrums. It's not black or white. There's healthy obsession. And unhealthy obsession. Being obsessed with going to the gym or eating healthy food, I don't see it as something unhealthy unless it imposes unhealthy impacts on your mental health and daily life. Vegans are literally obsessed with ... not eating non-vegan food. That is their lifestyle, it's an obsession. Some vegans are overly obsessed to a point where they are unhealthy for them, for the whole vegan community and the rest of us. It's a spectrum, it's not black, nor white. You don't see CEOs not being overly obsessed with how their company is going that month, because if the company ain't doing good, their stakeholders are gonna be very angry. And who's going to hire a CEO who just had to fire and ruin many people's lives, company's assets, ruin stakeholders' money etc? They're obsessed with their company as much as anybody. You don't see good programmers not being obsessed with performance, with how their tools work, how everything under the hood works, and having good problem solving skills because they have solved that problem before, because they had to out of obsession. The last time a performance ticket was being abandoned on Jira because a co-worker got bored of it and couldn't make it, I took it out of obsession to prove that it's not that hard to just ... fix this performance issue. I even made a whole presentation for the thing and the whole team got a bonus that year for very good performance, it was my first year at the company, and I didn't even take a bonus because "at this company at first year you don't get bonus". Yes unfair. But it was that obsession that afterwards the manager of the other company saw and hired me from the consultancy company that had me working for them. Obsession to a healthy spectrum is what drives successfulness. You don't hear good guitarists not practicing every day. You don't hear good parents practicing how to be as good with how their children grow up every day as possible and not doing mistakes. You don't hear good programmers being good programmers without being obsessed with their job.

Me watching 3 layers of the RU-vid player😂

You gotta pause when you're reacting to the react video

now I'm gonna do a reaction of this reaction of a reaction video, and we'll call it recursive reaction.

The algo brought me here!

i mean i kinda disagree with prime. yes you can grow through challenges, but like she said, there’s situations that you can come out better by cutting stuff off. cause things can make you worst off. if he went through all of that after 2 months, we’ll never know how better or worst off he would’ve been. and tbh, seeing where he is now, he did have to fight for it, and it seems like leaving at that time was the right choice. i’m sure prime went through a tough time, but everyones life experience isn’t equitable and straightforward as prime is making it seem

Hey, in regards to the cringe comments: 1 - You can have a friendship with a woman, I have one since 6th grade, I was best man in her wedding, we treat each other like brother and sister, nothing happened between us and never will. 2 - My wife was and still is one of the most important friends I ever had and our relationship changed naturally, we started like you guys having a lot of conversations about things of our lives, work, not only about "fun", we grew closer without noticing, so if it happens, it happens, just don't fool yourselves if one side is alone in how they feel. 3 - Don't bother answering those comments and putting text saying you're not together, people will be curious and inconvenient the more your channel grow.

You are watching a video in which someone makes a comment about your video. Haha. If thePrimeagen watches this video again, it would result in a recursive loop of feedback going back and forth.

bro watched DBZA commentary respect

A tip. Please don't change the speed and mess with the video you are reacting to ... it's hella distracting.

FAQ fr. XD

congrats on your new girlfriend

I'm a late bloomer, trying to get hired at 37. I sat at the PC today and just couldn't code. Watched this video and was so inspired. I have watched your LeetCode videos, but never knew anything about you. You definitely earned my respect. Thanks for being genuine and real. That goes to @ThePrimeTimeagen too. Big fan. Everything is hard, if not at the beginning, then definitely eventually at some point. But if you can push through that, then you can't imagine how much different and rewarding your future will be. Much love

Is this a reaction video to a reaction video??

No a fan of so many layers of reaction videos, I came to you just for ds&a i guess this channel is not it for me.

More power to you bro! This was an unexpected epic crossover 😂 Seriously, I love everything you do! Huge respect for you and the OG @ThePrimeagen 🫡 Your Leetcode videos made me take engineering more seriously in a fun way! You keep up the great work ❤

Is it going to be another reaction chain just like what happened on that professor video.

If you play this video 1.25x, then you're playing a 1.25x reaction video of a 1.25x reaction video. A tree problem
