  If the interviewer doesn’t have time to answer questions then they shouldn’t ask the interviewee if they had any questions.

  I’m not angry but I don’t believe a word you say. Literacy rate in the US is high. It could be better but don’t say they “often can’t read” just to argue. And if you do have friends who can’t read then you’re pretty shitty for not helping them learn to read. Everyone I know knows how to read except the children too young for school.

  I have more of an idea than you. I’m from those places. I didn’t come from money. I’m raised by a single mother, I was never taught about money growing up. I’ve witness my grandparents own a business, make millions, and have nothing to show for it because my grandmother spent it all on crap. She never graduated from the 7th grade and was poor so when she got money she spent it. Now my grandparents have no money and are still out here trying to hustle.

  You, however, sound like many of these users on sites like Reddit and Lemmy. A “white savior” (I don’t know your race). You talk about all these horrible conditions of the people you know nothing about because you actually don’t live around them and experience it. You think that everything is outside of their control and they are a victim of circumstance and just trying to survive. That is not the whole truth. They do have control over their own money. I don’t see how they couldn’t. I’ve watched this shit first hand. I knew people who fell on hard time (lost job, then car, then apartment, can’t find work). I’ve seen how they react to it by getting depressed, drinking, smoking weed, and spending the money they do get on those things. And I’ve told them over and over again to save their money to get their shit together so they can get back to work. Get your issues with your license taken care you, save the money you get from these odd jobs to buy a cheap car for $1k-$2k just to get to work, get on govt. assistance to buy food, etc. They always have an excuse why they can’t do it.

  You are just like everyone else here acting like white saviors, you give excuses, say it’s outside of everyone’s control, blame the “system” or someone else, and offer no solutions. All you’ve done is complain about my approach but where is your solution? I offered a solution.

  I’d like to point out that I specifically said I’m talking about Americans.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fear of job loss hits its highest point in years—but workers won’t accept less than $81,000⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  To be blunt, no, they often can’t read.

  BULLSHIT!!! Stop lying. Who the fuck are you even talking about? Who are these people who participate in this economy, work their jobs, get paid, spend the money they make, but CAN’T READ. And no, I’m not talking about people from a third-world country but Americans and have been from the beginning. And the use of the word “often” is strong because 79% of US adults are literate. Stop making shit up just to argue.

  Many can’t? Those people can’t pick up a book and read? The library is free in most western nations. They can’t watch some Youtube videos on basic budgeting? If they are struggling with money every day and not taking steps to solve the problem then I can’t help them. Again all I hear are excuses to not put in the effort.

  “I got stabbed in the arm and I’m bleeding. It hurts. Do I deserve to bleed out?”

  Treat the wound to stop the bleeding. Go to the ER if it is really bad. But don’t sit there going all Woe Is Me waiting for the EMS that you didn’t call because you think some bystander will put in the effort you refused to do.

  All I’m hearing are excuses man. You can’t do it because you don’t have financial literacy? Then get literate in finances. You guys will go to school to learn all these things to get a job but won’t take the time and learn how to budget, save, understand credit, how to manage money. They didn’t teach these things in school when I was in grade school so after fucking up with student loans I took the time to buy some books and learn it. It’s not rocket science and you have to deal with money every day so learn how to manage it properly.

  Next there’s discipline and planning. Why can’t you be discipline with your future? You just want to spend recklessly and expect the state to have your back when you get older? Do you really think there will be any assistance from the state when you retire? Do you even trust the state to take care of you without strings attached?

  I’m tired of people complaining about this “back breaking labor”. It will break your back if you aren’t safe about the work. The same is true for these office jobs except it’s mind numbing work. You can get very unhealthy just sitting down in front of a computer all day for years. You can get burned out for working too many hours trying to reach a deadline. At least the back breaking work has unions. In both situations you will trade your health for a livelihood.

  Then be smart about it. The money you saved from not paying for college can go into a retirement account. When your body is “destroyed” you have retirement income.

  I think the car is called Remington, the two door low rider. I can trick that vehicle out as much as I want. I always kero one around so I can participate in the low rider minigames.

  While the work could be outsourced to foreign countries there is still some hurdles to overcome. Language barriers, cultural barriers, time zones, labor laws, the paperwork involved with taxes, worker reliability, the threat of scams (see N. Korea), etc. But hey, let them find out for themselves.

  The alien was Elvis. I hope he comes back. What I miss the most was multiplayer. Playing with four people and bots that you could issue orders to, all the multiplayer modes, the weapons and their second functions (laptop gun torrent), and I think it had multiplayer campaigns. Also all the extra objectives during campaign mode to unlock more missions. Fun times!

  You had me up until one way interview. I don’t respect any hiring manager that cannot face me in an interview. Never do one way interviews because there is no opportunity for the candidate to interview the company.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨there is Indeed a problem⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  You wooly for 20 jobs on Indeed. The ones that respond want you to do a one-way interview so they can discriminate against you without facing you.

  I don’t know who some of these tech workers think they are to have the audacity to think they have a say in what someone else “deserves”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tech workers react to UPS drivers landing a $170,000 a year package with a mixture of anger and admiration⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Its not like the companies can just replace them with cheap labor. Tech requires skills that are built over years of dedication. These companies wouldn’t even be able to get foreigners to replace the tech workers because 1) language barrier, 2) culture barrier, 3) legal barrier (taxes, labor laws, etc), 4) immigration barrier, 5) time to onboard and learn the codebase. Then it would inevitable lead to unmaintainable code because these companies will want the work to be done yesterday and see no value in maintainable code.
