sometimes you can’t even get a shitty job
Even those become hard to find in this economy…
The Big Beautiful Depression is just on the horizon! Courtesy of the Epstein Class!
Just wait until the recession hits
Think we’re already there lol
Not really as it is liable to get much worse
At some point wall street is going to realize that spending billions to make millions doesn’t make sense.
Hense going from Recession to Depression
I’m honestly glad I had “low” aspirations going into college. My goal was always to be a teacher so I never expected good pay and therefore can’t be dissapointed.
OH, and once you actually get a good job in the USA – you can get laid off at any time for no reason and it’s completely out of your control.
Unionize people, unionize. I watched someone get their job back after they hit someone. Another after stealing hours of time. Job immortality is possible.
We should learn from cops
Graduated with a biochemistry degree. Got rejected from everywhere I applied including, of all things, Taco Bell. Eventually took up the Queen’s shilling
i know multiple people personally (4 atm) with some variation of a 4 year bio degree from a respectable program
none of them work in their field
most one was making was like 35k a year in a lab with a directly relevant degree, quit after 6 months
It is so bad people are turning to club penguin
Those universities should be sued for decieving kids into lifelong debt slavery on false promises of employment with their degrees.
A college degree is the minimum requirement. You don’t get shit with the minimum.
Highly recommend trades. Plumbing, electrician, heck, friends friend is an elevator maintenance/repair something and their company has more work than they can keep up with.
Anytime myself or any family member needs an electrician or plumber, they’re backed up for days or weeks or months.
I agree. To be fair, it’s more phisically demanding, so people tend to have shorter careers, but hopefully by the time you are 50 you can be a supervisor or move to an office job.
The money you make is decent to great, and you can work for yourself relatively early (ever dreamed of owning the means of production?).
That only works while there is a shortage. If everyone and their dog goes into the trades there will be a surplus of workers leading to low wages and higher unemployment
I learned a trade before I realized college was a better fit for me and I do think there’s a bit a “grass is always greener” phenomenon when it comes to people thinking about the trades.
There are plenty of hardworking, skilled welders who have pretty unpleasant, low-paying jobs and originally intended to get a lucrative oil rig job but couldn’t seem to get an offer. Ironically the ones I knew talked about how they were learning python on the side.
The trades have their own problems.
Guess what! You’ll get an even worse job if you don’t have a college degree!
Don’t need a degree to be the oxygen generator fixer in the post apocolyptic hellscape (HVAC tech)
so what you do is research what jobs are needed in your area and do a degree in that
you have to keep up on this sadly all 4 years
and even then you need to be willing to move and should probably take a generally applicable field like engineering
all of this really requires some kind of support group at the age of 17/18
so just be born rich
beyond that you have to actually focus on learning the material at the oversped rate likely to the exclusion of anything remotely fun
that said there are multiple job openings in my area for system engineers starting post 4 year degree about 100k
Heather Trott from EastEnders. That sparked some weird nostalgia.
Never even liked EastEnders.
This meme is me but thinking I had job security for working somewhere for over twenty years. Now I’m laid off for almost a year and this job market sucks with only niche it support experience. Moving to trades isn’t feasible at my age and I’ve no idea what the future holds with AI in the tech industry ands knowledge/office jobs in general.
uh…you can’t do anything and you know fuck all after 4 years of college.
