Social Are you overqualified for your job?

No. If anything, sometimes I wonder if I'm under qualified. I'm a software developer and pretty damn good at it, so I moved up quickly and was given opportunities a few years into my career that most people wouldn't get until they're decades into their careers. I'm not complaining but sometimes I think I might have been better off moving up more slowly so I could have had more time to learn from more senior developers/engineers rather than being thrown into positions where I'm the senior guy so quickly.
 
Nope. They pay my hourly rate and I do the job.

Everyone seems happy with the arrangement currently so I'd say I'm not overqualified.
 
I think I'm qualified... Not sure about over though. But I also get bored of doing the same thing after a while so I find myself positioning to learn new things when the opportunity arises.
 
Overqualified. I don't apply to jobs that has to deal with management in any fashion. On my last job, they basically made me team leader to handle my colleagues.
 
I am me.
It seems to work.

Also that dude in the video need to lose weight.
I bet thats why he dont get a better job.
Being red and fat is not okay
 
I feel like I'm overqualified for sherdog since I'm 7 feet tall, bench 480, and have an 11 inch dong.
 
I'm a trainee right now.

I think I'm fine with the job itself, but I need to improve on thinking mechanically and troubleshooting.

Honestly, even though I like my trainer, I'm looking forward to being on my own.
 
I am very confidant in my ability and skill as an elite level tradesman but I don’t believe I am too good to do any job. If I hit hard times and had to clean the bathrooms at McDonald’s, I would do it and I would take it seriously and do a good job. I don’t think that way.

I used to work rotationally and my family owned a restaurant. I’d have 1-2 weeks off at a time so I was happy to help around around the restaurant and bar when they needed it. Sometimes, people seemed surprised to see me tending bar or would ask me if I still had my job. I don’t care, I still tried to be the most attentive server and the best bartender I could be.

Imposter syndrome........

I'm sure you can do the job........
 
Lol. That vid always delivers.

Yeah I'm overqualified for most of the stuff I do but the hours are great and the boss seldom rides my ass and I can always tell him to shut his yap.
