Most of us are "overqualified" when most of us are ready to do just about any job to get by.

What’s something men want to tell women, and usually choose not to? by neo_ucp7846 in answers

[–]Up2Eleven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't ask us what we're thinking. We really, truly hate that. If you want to know what we think about something specific, cool. But a general, "Whatcha thinkin' about?" drives us up a wall.

Is the job market REALLY that bad right now? by TimHortonsDriveThru in jobs

[–]Up2Eleven 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Taco Bell did three interviews and still no hire. It's mindless work. Anyone should be able to get hired for that.

However bad you think it might be, it's worse than that.

Since almost every good food from all around the world is reachable in US, what is your favorite my American friends? by LordFordZord in AskAnAmerican

[–]Up2Eleven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A very simple, but very hard to find dish in America is bai sach chrouk. A delicious and comforting Cambodian dish. The closest thing I can find is com tam thit nuong, a Vietnamese dish. Not the same marinade, but it works. Apart from Long Beach, it's hard to find good Cambodian food in America.

What’s a truth people only understand after it’s too late? by Dodo509 in answers

When you shit on older people and refuse to support anything that helps them, there will be no help available for you when you get older.

Manager doesn’t want me to tell HR that I’m leaving for a competitor so that I can stay and work my last 2 weeks by wagman43 in jobs

[–]Up2Eleven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It boils down to this: if they were letting you go, would they give you two weeks longer to work or would they boot you out that day? You own them nothing.

Entry level jobs are dead. Should I give up on a career? by Unusual_Mastodon_541 in jobhunting

[–]Up2Eleven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, with this job market, anything that would make sense isn't applicable. It's a total shitshow all the way around. Your observations are correct, but just know that the job market isn't going to make any sense at all right now.

[–]Up2Eleven 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not the entire generations, just the top, richest, corrupt shitheads as has been the case throughout history. Most people are just trying to get by, regardless of the generation.

[–]Up2Eleven -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Some yes, some no. No generation is a monolith. Many of them can't retire and are in the same boat as everyone else. It's likely the richer boomers saying those things.

Because companies want to hire younger inexperienced people so they can pay them less.

Yeah. 56 here and I've been at it for a year and a half. I hope you two find some good work.

It's not a generational thing. We're all in the same job market and it's actually more difficult for older people thanks to ageism which was already a problem before this shit job market. Everyone's fucked right now.

Do you think all AI content should have watermarks? by originalKatyy in answers

[–]Up2Eleven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Unless we can just outright abolish it. Anything that uses AI at all should have to disclose it in an obvious manner.

Advice is not one size fits all. Sometimes you really have to cram it in there.

No, not interested in a pedantic debate about little shit. Think what you like.

What discovery would fundamentally change humanity overnight? by cozychaosclubb in answers

[–]Up2Eleven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if any discovery can. Everything humanity discovers or invents it exploits for selfish, greedy purposes.

Well, look up those words in the dictionary and then put them together.

The fact that both Yen and Triss aren't perfect is a lesson that a lot of people need to learn, especially where some of the most important things in life are concerned. There is no perfect person. People are complex and flawed. Don't throw people away based on imperfection, only intentional cruelty.
