Hey you, business owners

Are you so blinded by short term profits that you can't make a long term recruiting plan? Or have you given up on the future already and are just trying to live the life before it's all over? Why are you asking me for 1 year of experience and mastery of 8 different technologies on your entry level pre-employment listing? I've already got a degree, does that mean anything to you? Are degrees useless now? I'm willing to take any salary at this point just to get out of my room and do something with my life

Why do they call it a job market? A job is the only real source of income for the majority of the world population, are we trading people's lives now? Why is it that if I stay unemployed I'm treated as if I have an expired sticker on my face?

And you, state

Are you so pathetic to publish a document with all sorts of legal jargon for just one position? One position that will get you a 6 page list of candidates just so they can all move to the capital twice to pass your oral and written exams? For one position? Are you not ashamed in the slightest?

I'm so tired of you all

    Yes. Workers sell their labor to capitalists so they can profit off it. The capitalists are very picky customers who need either a lot of marketing effort from the sellers of labor, or a personal recommendation by a friend. We're basically in a giant supermarket begging those creeps to buy us.

    I live in an area where I can just walk to a store, give them my number and be working there tomorrow, hopefully this never changes here since it sounds like a nightmare y'all are having.
