    It depends. If you don't lie and claim you've used a certain technology for longer than it has actually existed, then it can be hard to find a job. If you don't seem "likable" (actual introverts not welcome), it can be hard to find a job. If you don't follow arbitrary dress codes, good luck finding a job. If you don't have a piece of paper but are more educated than the vast majority of people with said piece of paper (autodidacts don't exist), good luck finding a job. Essentially, you need to become a run-of-the-mill bullshitter and kiss the status quo's boots to increase your chances of finding a job. People with principles want no part in that. Have fun with your self-employment.

    Translation: no one wants to hire an asshole with no qualifications (but some skills). Anyone who isn't an asshole with no qualifications is a bootlicker.
