Post here if you're looking for a job and getting no bites
BLS revision shows annual hiring was overstated by 911,000 jobs
Turns out there was nearly a million less jobs then previously thought
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? 
Either fighting in the revolution or dying in the water wars.
Just lie, say self employment as like... Anything. IT services are great for this because nobody can fucking check anything if it doesn't exist anymore. Or just "painter and decorator" is pretty good. Gardening services. The kinds of things you can cold call people for and there'll be odd jobs people need doing.
Pretty much anyone could pretend to have done a variety of IT services as self employed without any ability to verify any of it. Say you were the top seller for search optimisation services on Fiverr. It's impossible to verify and easily makes more than enough income for one person a year to justify it.
Yep "my uncle hired me for landscaping" nobody asks more.
unironically, thanks
No worries, it works and is actually a selling point to some. There's no need to admit unemployment ever.
i applied to about a thousand jobs over the course of 2 years but i gave up, it was ruining my mental health
no one wants to hire someone who needs disability accommodations
Yeah I worked through trying to get accommodations at work, got a small fraction of what I asked for, and have been suffering since. It’s probably in my head, but I feel like it mostly made things worse. This is why people suffer in silence; at least that way there’s no retribution
they say that they're very accepting and accommodating, but at the end of the day a capitalist will never do something that'd hurt their bottom line. making money is way more important than throwing scraps to the people making them that money
It’s been a very humbling experience -was diagnosed later in life and mask/present as “typical”. Seemed to go:
Me: ahh finally learned why I feel the way I do - I’ll feel so much being able to accept myself!
Them: hey put that mask back on! No one wants to see that!!
At least when I was delusional, there was less self loathing
i feel you, went through about the same myself
Appreciate it. At least we can try to use the experience to help others!
But at least the whole process was also dehumanizing
This is real, the moment I say I have Autism, I'm not getting hired and it fucking sucks.
Been volunteering in Community Radio for a while now, it doesn't pay but it's at least shit to tide me over, but atp I doubt I'll ever have a job that isn't volunteering, thank god for parents and the albeit small Canadian Social Safety Net.
Oh yeah that happens a lot in TERF island ngl, to be honest i think most porkies kinda just want to send all Neurodivergent people to these "Camps of Concentration" where they can be put in a "Chamber of Gas" and euthanised.
I'm honestly surprised more people aren't going postal at workplaces. There's a lot of wannabe Charlie Kirks that love to make people jump through hoops for $12/hr
Guns and ammo are pricey these days, much like everything else
Capitalism solving the mass shooter problem by making people too poor to afford guns
the guns are easily affordable, its the ammo that'll kill ya
Do they have Temu guns? Pew pew for the penny pinchers?
I got myself into a situation where I needed a job NOW and almost two years later I'm still delivering boxes for Amazon. Gonna put my diplomas up in the un-air-conditioned cargo hold
Looking for a job on top of 10 hour days in 100 degree weather is just too much...
If they say "We'll let you know by Friday" then you didn't get the job
hey it me
I spent 2 years looking for a tech job, with 10 years experience in the roles I was shooting for. Its fucking ROUGH out there. Luckily I started working for a nonprofit via Americorps right now, but if there's any people who want to apply to software companies, hit me up and I can share some sites that aren't on the beaten path that got me some interviews.
It fucking sucks, and im underemployed now but im in the "at least its something" camp, plus its good work so hopefully this next year let's me career pivot into homelessness work

a clay tablet from the state archives of Assyria, dating from some time between 911 and 609 BC.
The surviving contents of the tablet read:
To the deputy (governor), my lord: your servant Aššur-reṣiwa. Good health to my lord!
Why is my lord silent (while) I wag my tail and run about like a dog? I have sent three letters to my lord. Why does my lord not consent to send an answer to (my) letter? Let my lord return me to my office. As much as I served your father, so let me now serve you!
the gap keeps growing and the employers keep leaving 
I'm not yet looking for a job, but I'm not looking forward to getting into it 
My contract ended early where I was working and I've been applying to things nonstop for the last two months, not a single place has responded to me.
If I end up losing this job because of bullshit I'll just start selling shit again lmao
I spent almost 2 years looking, then I lucked out and found out that my old job from about 20 years ago was open again. My old boss was even still there. I'd probably still be looking otherwise.
Ive been to double digit job interviews this year and gotten nothing, I'm going back to school instead now lmao 
I went to a job interview and got ghosted by HR, I sat in the lobby for half an hour before stealing a magazine and leaving
Another interview was 3 hours long (
I got a rejection email 4 months later so thats something I guess
man the ghosting kills me. how is that in any way professional
Professionalism is when we make you eat endless shit and you never complain
Banned? DM Wmill to appeal.
