Honestly, I find these emails more amusing than infuriating. Is that $800 per week? Total? I guess I’ll never know, because I didn’t become a software developer just to work in a warehouse.
Honestly looks like a scam email because it’s as little detail as possible. Did you check the email? Bet it’s going to be a bunch of numbers “@gmail”

Is it a remote position? I’d consider working in a warehouse if I didn’t have to leave my home.
With something like a VR and HOTAS setup
Preferably some interface I could automate with a small shell-script 😀
does your resume include a sokoban clone?
Oh, I thought this was a “data warehouse” kinda joke?
My favorite version of this was an ad for applebees that said “you belong here!”. Like, I know that they meant it to be welcoming, but it came across as vaguely threatening …
I used to think it was awful that life was so unfair. Then I thought, wouldn’t it be much worse if life were fair, and all the terrible things that happen to us come because we actually deserve them? So, now I take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe.

I’ve got these emails before, almost exactly like this. I have a PhD, but sure, I guess I’m qualified for this too.
Wow, they’ll pay you $800/time?
nah just $800. once.
I don’t know if these things are sent en masse by a bot or by a person, but it’s like they don’t even skim your profile before hitting send. Like I specifically said “Work from home only”, what makes you think I want your “hybrid” opportunity in bumfuck Illinois that barely pays what it should for my experience?
they’re sent en masse, yes. To literally everyone.
This is someone using a tool/service to mass send emails, but never bothered to configure it.
Hey
We are reaching you regarding your <profile experience> . See job
These emails never match the resume. I work at a warehouse and like the job, but I definitely wouldn’t trust some random person spamming me. When I was looking for a job, some guy was trying to get me to take this really sketchy job selling phones. Thanks but no thanks.
Be mindful it also could be malicious
Matches programming and game dev experience lmao we’re livin’ almost the same life on that aspect dude lol
