But muh freeze peach!

I both envy and pity those that can and need to blast out applications like this. There aren’t 1500 open positions in my field in the country. As someone who struggles with doing nothing, application grinding would resolve a lot of anxiety.

LOL

You can’t take criticism! Keep plugging your ears!

You can’t criticise me, I’m ignoring you!

Of course you dodged their last comment. Typical.

Bravo, sir, bravo. I haven’t seen a more complete display of a lack of self-awareness and critical thinking skills on Lemmy in ages.

We’re really scraping the bottom of the barrel with the latest of you Reddit refugees.

Elon Musk is happy to impregnate a bunch of women 🤮

One down, 77.3 million to go.

Like the seven deadly sins, it’s just more appendant mythology to herd the sheep.

I don’t believe in a Christian afterlife (and the jury’s out on any at all), but I really want there to be one so these sick fucks can have all the pain and suffering they’ve caused rubbed into their faces.

A great blue heron in Germany?! That’s a rarity.

It’s funny that not too long ago getting a FAANG job right out of college was a recipe for success. Now many grads would prefer to avoid them because they’re so toxic, but can’t find a job and have to apply anyhow.

An associates, bachelor’s, and master’s here. I’ve been rejected for being “underqualified” for jobs with no stated or practical education requirement. I just got a job making a bit above 1/3 of what I was making when I was termed seven months ago. I’m incredibly overqualified and I only got it because I was third choice and two PhDs ahead of me backed out after being offered it. The job is just above entry level and has a requirement of an associates or high school and 2 years experience.

It’s not you, the job market is just insane.

It’s being gross about it and referring to her like livestock that bothers me. Breedable. Yuck.

Goddamn that’s low. At first I read that as $1200/week, which would be the highest in the nation.

I also got termed for no reason but my state maxes out at $875 per week, low considering the cost of living here.

It depends. I was terminated under false pretenses, so I collected unemployment without any issues.

Sorry, your mom is wrong.

Gather round and attend my layoff time tale of woe.

I worked for this company for four years. They fell on hard times and, in place of layoffs, required employees to temporarily give up a portion of their salary on the condition it would be repaid within 2 years with interest, plus increased bonuses proportional with how much you sacrificed. I voluntarily gave up 20% as the company had never had a layoff in its history (no layoffs was part of their alleged culture) and all the old timers gushed about their massive bonuses after downturns like these.

I was given my quarterly review in October and I get a perfect score. I work three weeks, then am badly hurt on the job. It requires fairly major surgery, so I’m out for almost two months.

I literally limp back, probably a little too early. The first day is fine and I’m getting back up to speed. Boss shows appreciation to my dedication as I reasonably could have taken more time to recuperate. I tell her I need to discuss accommodations as I’m still healing. She agrees and sets an appointment for the next morning. Great job HamSandwich, everyone loves you.

I arrive to the accommodation meeting to find the head of HR and my boss. I figure HR is there to help with accomodations. Nope, I’m being terminated. For performance. Huh. I ask about my stellar review. My boss tells me there were issues. I ask about the issues. She is unable to give me any examples. I ask how I was supposed to know I had performance issues when I had a perfect review three work weeks ago and no one can tell me what I’ve been doing wrong. HR boss bitch pipes in with “Ham, at your seniority level you should just know.” Fuck you, boss bitch. Fuck you.

As I’m packing up my things, I realize they cut me one day before my yearly stock shares were to be awarded. Security walks me out and tells me I’m one of many senior level employees being terminated. People are being fired for showing up five minutes late. Upper level admins are walking out in protest. It appears this was the strategy: bank on the company’s good reputation to encourage increased voluntary salary cuts, then dump as many high earners as possible if still in a downturn. My boss is a spineless twerp and went along with it. She lies and tells the rest of the department I was terminated for sleeping on the job. Fuck you, boss. Fuck you.

The company had its first round of layoffs a few months later. Those employees also lost the money they gave up. The company’s reputation is irreparably harmed and I’m currently suing them for lost wages.

We also underestimate how stupid those that voted for him are.
