I think collecting applications for months just to tell 99% of applicants they wasted their time is part of what's making the job market so horrible, that and most job postings being fake.

For service jobs and really any job that doesn't require special licenses there's absolutely no good reason why they shouldn't hire one of the first to apply instead of holding out.

Given enough time.

Obviously professions that take years to study have that barrier to entry.

But if your job isn't life or death most likely they will already have to teach you everything you need to know on the job.

When we judge our success off of GDP and the S&P, when the vast majority of stocks are owned by the rich and most Americans don't own businesses, then yeah, economic success has almost no correlation with median wealth or income.

BLM were labeled terrorists without being violent whatsoever, so idk why you think you would be safe bending the knee.

Violence can't be committed against inanimate objects, you have ingested that propaganda.

Remeber that black people got the right to vote AFTER the killing of MLK and the insuing riots.

Nobody is saying work isn't required, but if we only forced people to pay off the debt their existence incurred most people would probably retire before 40

This is the original. It looks like they might have made his eyes a little bigger but it's pretty close

Lol you're free to do what you want.

But you are coming off as a fed who's trying to entrap people

It's much better to communicate the idea without inciting violence:

"Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives"

It's sweet, to the point, and is just a plain historical fact.

I get this, and being good at customer service helps a lot in interviews.

But on the other hand it's really fucked up how we are all expected to go to work and always be pleasant when most of us don't want to be there and are only there so they don't become homeless. So I don't care if my coworkers are pissy, it's healthy to act how you feel.

At 18 years old US society puts a gun to our heads and says "work or die", with no guarentee of being able to find work that pays for a life.

Most people can do most jobs.

Companies shouldn't legally be allowed to be this selective.
