What do you do that you earn six figures?

It seems like a lot of people make a lot of money and it seems like I’m missing out on something. So those of you that do, whats your occupation that pays so well?

That's not accurate! Some of us have to make PowerPoints about what the software developers are doing.

If you’re a CSM making that money you’ve figured it out.

I too want to jockey JIRA for that kind of money…

I was a 6 figure worker telling people how to use jira. Now 6 to organize people into sprints and help them test. This is best industry. Minus jira

If you are good at that job, well worth the 6 figures. Our scrum dude is not so great and it makes life horrible for everyone. 😵
