        It turns out the reality is people don’t want to work for shit wages.

        Companies also used it in the wake of the pandemic to justify running skeleton crews. Why hire more workers, when you can just give more work to your existing workers for no extra pay? If they complain, just fire a few of the loudest ones to make a point and keep the rest in line.

          Really appreciated all the return to work mandates in spite of all evidence that it was better for workers’ lives. I ha e to provide a business reason for just about anything, yet there is no reasoning even attempted when the choice is between worker well being and company dominance of the will.

        Rent goes up while wages don’t and nepotism is more valuable than competence.

        “No one wants to work” fuck off, no one wants to trudge, plenty of people have drive to get shit done absent the Damocles sword of capitalism.

      Job listings are far less likely to be fake if they are posted on the companies own website. They can outsource deceptive shit to LinkedIn and all those shitty websites because they cover liability and fraud for them.

      Some companies even have you send resumes directly to a hiring managers real email, shockingly. Anyways thats all to say that you might have better luck applying directly.
