Hi Adam, Questions about employment and career advice aren’t appropriate for this, or any, Apache mailing list . However, there are a number of forums on Linkedin where this question will be much better received.
The Hadoop mailing lists get bombarded with questions from all over the ecosystem and in many cases not related to Hadoop at all. The community is very protective (as you can see) of these forums as they are often the best possible place to get and share expertise on the development and operation of Hadoop.

Humans are good at complaining for no reason at all. Simply to hears their own voice, I suppose.
