Unemployment is at record lows. Some sectors are hiring a lot more people than the tech sector is shedding. It’s not really complicated.
Job sectors come and go, grow and shrink. Imagine how silly I would sound if I said: “there is almost no work for horse cart builders but the gov says that unemployment is at record lows, how can this be?”
Edit: Gonna try being less upset about some things.
You should try not being so angry and offended all the time.
Fair. Got any tips?
Well, first, I would start with not reading a billboard created by some marketers as some affront to you and the opinion of a group of people who have nothing to do with making the sign.
"I want to be able to eat this month, so losing my job would be really bad"
You: Fuck you tech workers! The world doesn't revolve around you!
