Verification Codes.

One-Time my ass, more like, repeated times. I'm so tired of verification codes up the ass these days. Just today, I had to reset my PayPal password. So that meant there was a code sent to an e-mail address after the reset process was set, to begin with. Then I had to go through the obstacle of verifying the information of the account. And then even after the password was reset, I'm sent ANOTHER freaking code right after!

And it's even more frustrating to deal with, with my bank. I've gotten random verification checks for making internal transfers within my account. Things I've done without any issue. But just one day, I got THREE verification checks to do what I needed to do!

This verification shit has gotten out of hand! I want it to just die, just like captcha. Whatever purpose they originally were intended to do, is lost in translation, because now they're just obstacles that wastes our time every minute we have to bother with them.

temp/staffing agencies. They are middle men whose sole purpose is to be a prophylactic on a shitty manufacturing company's high employee turnover affecting stock prices. Every single one of them is a "rent-a-meat" outfit, and literally no one should EVER work for any of them. They are almost as bad as payday lenders, preying on desperation to turn a profit. The perverse thing is that with one small tweak, they'd be on par with unions as one of the greatest bulwarks of labor empowerment, but nope, gotta profit on protecting the bottom line! (What I'm thinking of is something like a member owned/operated trade union that actively works to continue training, and to place members in viable and long term employment, that will also have your back as the worker, offering legal representation and arbitration services if your contractee employer treats you in bad faith.)
