there needs to be a common form for job applications like with college

they’re incentivized to make it as shitty as possible both for this rite of passage shite as well as de-incentivizing workers in general from switching jobs ‘too freely’. it helps retention knowing how fucking miserable the process is

i hate how we’re supposed to act like we’re the Most Perfect fit for the role, and So Eager! – the most ideal human to ever walk the earth, specifically for this role.

RTO mandates are such a vile vile figment of the mid 2020s. massive quality of life downgrades are being mandated because some rich fucks bet too many fucking parlays on fucking office buildings

_number8_ , 10 months ago to Work Reform in Return-to-office orders look like a way for elite, work-obsessed CEOs to grab power back from employees

people have lives far, far beyond the scope of offices and business. people have dreams, desires, goals that matter a trillion times more than ‘mentorship’ or ‘organizational productivity’ ever, ever could.

if you’ve ever worked food service in your life you should instantly be able to calculate how fucked wages are. in 1 hour you make dozens of meals that cost $10+ while getting paid maybe $10 or $15 per hour. it’s obscene
