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.

Mega64 posted:Also, did she really just randomly e-mail her company's CEO and make a shitload of random suggestions, including complaining about how stupid coconut water is? I mean yeah, coconut water is pretty dumb but if I'm a low-level employee for a large company I wouldn't be dumb enough to e-mail my CEO and go, "Hey dumbass this product we sell sucks, get rid of it."

Imagine a country where grifters and con men are actually the highest paid in the land with the lowest amount of working hours as long as your credentials include coming from existing wealth. Wouldn't that be the wackiest

Aralan posted:I read that whole letter and I think this is my welcome to the Republican party moment. Also your rent being 30% of your net income isn't "ideal", it's supposed to be an upper limit if you aren't a dummy That's cool with an average rent cost of roughly 1000 dollars in the U.S. that's actually effectively 100% of your budget at 40 hours a week on an 8 dollar minimum wage after taxes no matter where you are living.

I'm glad there are legions of computer janitors ready to tell everyone things are fine when someone is having a hard time economically no matter the circumstances or case. And have an arsenal of semi reasonable sounding but no less gymnastic rebuttals when it's about everything being broken from the ground up and not hot tips on how to make it work.

I have really been trying to not get heated and slap fighty in GBS and I hosed that up here. I'm not saying she is deserving of sympathy for her string of ill thought maneuvers but rather that a 20-25 year old should be able to make mistakes and recover from them and the system they are participating in should have the flexibility to allow for that without undergoing a bleak and soul sucking gauntlet. I understand the economic realities of the situation in this country and how they should impact your planning and decisions, but am not apathetic enough to not speak out about how no one should be in this situation in the first place.

ITT goons continuously and retardedly assume there is a magical utopia in America where minimum wage feels just fine and the cost of living scales linearly downwards to reflect your wise choice to not give a poo poo about sushi places or some loving crap

I can't really assume age ranges here and I don't know what kind of ruck you are all hauling your own selves but let me tell you it's a real fuckin hum dinger to be in the mid twenties trying to figure poo poo out in this economy if by circumstance or choice you find yourself with a modicum of trouble seeking employment. The platitudes about life and jobs and getting used to it are all real fuckin cutesy and correct but it is the most absolutely infuriating poo poo on earth to just listen to people opine about how poo poo is bad it's always gonna be bad. Does that sound loving inspiring to you? Does it sound great feeling forty at age 26? Because that's what is going on for a sizeable portion of this country. Here's an idea when your kid turns about fifteen or so make sure you sit them down and give them a big loving lecture about being a nihilist piece of poo poo because that's just the way the world turns.

Panfilo posted:I have a hard time feeling sympathetic, given the fact that it took me years to nail down a full time job after college. If she thinks working a full time job for minimum wage sucks, she should try the idea of having to work three part time jobs strung together to pay the bills, without the benefit of health insurance (paid my own, decade before Obamacare) . And all three of those jobs required a bachelor's degree. It sucked, but it was a living. Indeed, suffering is good and we should uphold it as meritorious and indicative of your value to society as a whole. All shall be forced through the mesh until only the deserved are able to comfortably provide for themselves, and staunchly defend this cycle.

That's a great misappropriation of the Buddha's words I'm sure that he indeed meant we should conform to the ideology of misery as the default state that is at the core of all this poo poo and perpetuate it by inaction or apathy against our fellow man

I'm not really fired up about whatever her nonjob dream job was. Just trying to suggest things really really really never will change if we forsake idealism and looking forward entirely for the chains all around us in the present. Of course you have to work within the now you are born into, and find your way within it. But you can disparage what's happening and advocate for something different along the way.jackyl posted:this is sustainable because You understand that globalized capitalism is unsustainable right???

what about studies that have shown people in managerial positions -so long term employees- to be the source of problems vastly more often than the employees they are supervising?
