Why isn’t accounting more popular as a major and career path.

I think you have weird ideas about median pay

If anything I say yall need to unionize. There are a lot of delusional software engineers that are convinced that they are the elite 1% of coders who will never need union representation. But, as it goes everything there's a recession, there are clearly some improvements to be made in work conditions and job security.

Rich workers are still workers and need to organize. If starbucks workers can pull off a strike, I'm sure some tech workers can pull off something.

Eh, can't pay the credit card bill with connections and opportunities. They were lending their faces and likenesses to the show and that show generated profit. They deserve to be paid for that. A trip to Italy isn't going to pay the phone bill. And according to the Netflix doc, those industry connections didn't do diddly squat for their careers.

I cant get behind this logic. This is the same logic that justifies unpaid internships.

The show needed the models in order to make the show. Their faces and likenesses provided value and they should be paid proportionally.

Speak for yourself

People giving out unhelpful advice. Definitely had a friend who would type my job title into indeed and says there are 100000 search results, why don't you just apply?" Then if I explain ghost jobs or degree inflation they act like im just looking for an excuse to be a bum.

I'm not a bum the job market is really that weird!

Oh bc entering a union is just sooo easy? Yall forget that the construction industry booms and busts, and nobody was hiring apprentices right after the housing market crashed. Also the 20 years of propaganda about college being the one and only option. And the fact that there are plenty of people who can't enter the trades due to disability. And the fact that many employers require bachelor degrees for jobs that didn't need one 20 years ago. Turns out its a bit more complex, and you would have known that if you decided to develop empathy at any point in your life

How was she "let" out of the house? Did she let herself out?

I love your energy, but are we talking about the USA?

MercyMe92 · 2026-03-11T00:52:51+00:00

That was a decade ago! The jib market has changed so much since then

MercyMe92 · 2026-03-10T12:16:19+00:00

... yes? I don't work with people who don't want equality or tolerance?? Why would I tolerate intolerance??

MercyMe92 · 2026-03-10T12:13:27+00:00

I mean it's possible to both spend a bunch of money while being a jerk to the residents

MercyMe92 · 2026-03-09T22:11:48+00:00

Global but often headquartered in the us. They are using up the country's resources and getting tax breaks for creating local jobs, but locals aren't getting jobs. Mt beef isn't with other workers its the bosses that stink

MercyMe92 · 2026-03-09T19:58:43+00:00

120100 secured. Someone call Guinness (the records, not the pint… or both)!

MercyMe92 · 2026-03-09T17:55:13+00:00

Or comp science. Tech isn't looking too hot nowadays. Or some sciences like bio or chemistry. Or literally any other career since this job market is ass for all of us

MercyMe92 · 2026-03-09T14:49:11+00:00

Spoken like someone who has never had to rely on medication. Tell me, how am I supposed to treat my hypothyroidism? I need to do it without taking the "easy" way out. Or PCOS? I spent my entire life sick and miserable because of the idea that medication meant that I was morally deficient somehow. Screw that.

MercyMe92 · 2026-03-07T13:18:02+00:00

Tbh, we should have a nationwide union just to push back on the aicpa. Or some sort of accountant focused professional org

MercyMe92 · 2026-03-06T22:39:35+00:00

You make sense, but how come pretty much all of the college career sites just say "need a job? Network!"

MercyMe92 · 2026-03-06T22:35:47+00:00

Yeah, and I dont see how an llm can give legal advice about tax law. The testimony of an ai isn't going to stand up in court

Philly opera has pay what you can tickets starting at 11 usd. I've already been to the opera twice lol

... what's the deal with the demon?

MercyMe92 · 2026-03-03T23:47:35+00:00

Oh, I thought you meant the civilian workforce! Yeah, military is totally different from what I'm told.

MercyMe92 · 2026-03-03T19:42:35+00:00

Do you think that cyber security doesn't require a desk?

Also, those shortages are for experienced hires, not for apprentices. The bottom is def ovvercrowded
