https://medium.com/@taliajane/an-open-letter-to-my-ceo-fb73df021e7a#.x8iirfrd7 hosed up, IMO Person works for some "eat24" app customer service and gets paid minimum wage while living in too high cost of life SF. Writes open letter to ceo and gets fired about an hour later. They want to get into like writing I guess, so they got this job as "entry level" but apparently they leave you there for a year.

tl,dr - I wasted my college tuition on an English Lit degree so I got a lovely entry level job in a high dollar city. Now I have rent that's too expensive, a commute that's too far away, and my job is hard and they don't pay enough. PS - I got fired.

Seeing this English lit major suffer because she has a bad job makes me feel good. I love it because she probably enjoyed college while I spent my days online making wikis about retards and hot dog men that I am stalking.

Why would you want a degree in anything that wasn't mathematically or technology focused? How do you even intend to slot yourself in as a moderately valuable cog within an industry profiting many many so many times more than the amount of money they pay you that allows you to buy enough ipads and 4k tv's to keep yourself distracted that will eventually crash and burn as every bubble has if it can be done anywhere else in the world 20% cheaper and with 60-70% of the quality.

Shaquin posted:Why would you want a degree in anything that wasn't mathematically or technology focused? Well one reason would be so you could not make your entire argument based on stupidity like Shaquin posted:20% cheaper and with 60-70% of the quality. congrats on your English degree, hopefully it was 60% cheaper and only 20% worse than the other options

Eat24 sucks and this girl deserves her terrible life for moving into an apartment that costs 80% of her income or whatever

Also her dream job that she'll never get now was to parlay her English degree into writing corporate tweets, maybe she should kill herself

I don't think she should kill herself actually, that would be sad.

Wait she MOVED to San Fran for a minimum wage job? Oh my god this fuckin girl Coming out of college without much more than freelancing and tutoring under my belt, I felt it was fair that I start out working in the customer support section of Yelp/Eat24 before I’d be qualified to transfer to media. Then, after I had moved and got firmly stuck in this apartment with this debt, I was told I’d have to work in support for an entire year before I would be able to move to a different department. A whole year answering calls and talking to customers just for the hope that someday I’d be able to make memes and twitter jokes about food. If you follow me on twitter, which you don’t, you’d know that these are things I already do. But that’s neither here nor there. Let’s get back to the situation at hand, shall we?

A young woman was about to finish her first year of college. Like so many others her age, she considered herself to be a very liberal Democrat, and was very much in favor of the redistribution of wealth. She was deeply ashamed that her father was a rather staunch Republican, a feeling she openly expressed. Based on the lectures that she had participated in, and the occasional chat with a professor, she felt that her father had for years harbored an evil, selfish desire to keep what he thought should be his. One day she was challenging her father on his opposition to higher taxes on the rich and the addition of more government welfare programs. The self-professed objectivity proclaimed by her professors had to be the truth and she indicated so to her father. He responded by asking how she was doing in school. Taken aback, she answered rather haughtily that she had a 4.0 GPA, and let him know that it was tough to maintain, insisting that she was taking a very difficult course load and was constantly studying, which left her no time to go out and party like other people she knew. She didn’t even have time for a boyfriend, and didn’t really have many college friends because she spent all her time studying. Her father listened and then asked, “How is your friend Audrey doing?” She replied, “Audrey is barely getting by. All she takes are easy classes, she never studies, and she barely has a 2.0 GPA. She is so popular on campus; college for her is a blast. She’s always invited to all the parties, and lots of times she doesn’t even show up for classes because she’s too hung over.” Her wise father asked his daughter, “Why don’t you go to the Dean’s office and ask him to deduct a 1.0 off your GPA and give it to your friend who only has a 2.0. That way you will both have a 3.0 GPA and certainly that would be a fair and equal distribution of GPA.” The daughter, visibly shocked by her father’s suggestion, angrily fired back, “That wouldn’t be fair! I have worked really hard for my grades! I’ve invested a lot of time, and a lot of hard work! Audrey has done next to nothing toward her degree. She played while I worked my tail off!” The father slowly smiled, winked and said gently, “Welcome to the Republican party.”
