This is every oligarch's wet dream: People accepting anything to do the job, and can't quit either. The invisible shackles of Capitalism.

Off to look for new jobs with my briefcase full of jizzum

Next month I will have been unemployed for 2 years… this fucking sucks.

Breaking news. No one has a job anymore. Anyway, pay us money to read about it.

But I heard the economy is amazing.

"The unemployment rate is low by historical standards..."

What if I told you the unemployment rate is a bullshit number tracked by bullshit people with bullshit jobs?

The only people counted as unemployed are those who both check in regularly with unemployment and either are actively looking for work or expecting to be rehired after layoffs.

Even if you are looking for work, if you aren't actively checking in with unemployment, you aren't being counted. And who the fuck wastes time with reporting to unemployment when they have no unemployment benefits to claim because they either never had them or ran out of them?

Started listening to a YouTube channel on economics and this guy was straightforwardly taking the unemployment number at face value, not mentioning that the true unemployment rate might be significantly higher, including people who have given up looking for work.

I think it might be a psyop.

One of the biggest issues I've noticed is that the process is broken. I've posted this before; but having to use a website to apply if not a cr'application and to have to take a psychological evaluation, that some stupid bloke made, just to get an interview is asinine.

Then the expectation of blowing smoke up someone ass in an interview is ridiculous. Why do you want to work here? For the money dipshit, I could think of a million better things to do morons. Don't get me started on anything tech or repair related; please *demonstrate your skills * fix this shit for free.

Anything kind of work is just that, work.

Also the rampant job scams are at an all time high. At this point, leave a voice mail. I won't respond to texts, it's a security liability.

We really need to go back to using paper applications and faxes.

Now now, I hear there's a promising career path with Crack Cocaine Manufacturing/Sales.

Never give up!

It’s rarely been THIS harder for people to find new jobs

It's tumbling down tumbling down tumbling doooown~🎶

Ai has possibly fucked the hiring process most of all. It's managed to do it in tons of different ways.

• it's caused positions to be flooded with applications.
• applications are ai generated lies to match the ai generated wants.
• applications are outright fake to a much higher degree than ever before.
• ai can't really tell the difference between real candidates and fake ones.
• finding the actually qualified applicants is harder because they have to have an equally fake resume to get past the ai filters.
• ai interviews alienate applicants.
• AI use in interviews makes a lot of existing techniques less useful in interviews.

Well yeah, there aren’t jobs. This is the part where the rich squeeze the poor for everything they have so they are broke and have fewer choices. Can’t move if you’re poor. Get back to work, pleb.

The way my current work is headed has me updating my resume already. Everyone's so deep into AI psychosis, so far I've been able to totally avoid using the slop machines but it feels like there's more and more pressure to use them coming from upper management, and I feel like I'm the only goddamn person in this company rejecting that garbage entirely. Not to mention we're getting more US government-related clients that I have zero real interest in supporting but have to for my paycheck, but I do get a small bit of satisfaction in that the literal only support rep on US soil (me) is also a filthy commie.

but realistically it's probably next to impossible to find something in tech at a company that's staunchly anti-AI, doesn't support the imperialist machine, and allows full remote positions.

True, I keep getting rejected when applying for the job of zookeeper even for zoos I'm not banned from
