Im a medior and I earn 42k/yr. It would be a privilege for me to earn this much, as I cannot afford a home.

> Im a medior

I do not know that word. I looked it up and found nothing helpful. What does it mean, and what do you mean?

Also, may I ask you to use more punctuation and things like currency symbols, because your message lacks so much context I can't even guess.

In the Netherlands, it's the name for anyone between junior and senior, in software. From my perspective it's more something used by recruiters and employers to tell people they don't get a senior engineer's compensation.

Something interesting: for me, that comment was the 6th Google result for "medior". Interesting term.

The first 3 hits on any search engine weren't relevant?

What I was going to ask as well, seems that people are getting dumber by the day.

At least in English, this appears to be slang that only recently leaked out of its original context. I've never heard the term before and whatever they used to look it up probably had no results.

The usual English term is "mid-level".

No, they weren't. They told me an awkward neologism for someone who isn't senior and isn't junior, and that means that neither they nor the original message tell me mid-level what.

So, no, they were not, or I would not have asked.

There are three levels of seniority. You can be a junior, a medior or a senior.
