I wish I was unemployed. I took tomorrow off and a Sunday that doesn't have the shadow of the work week hanging over it is such a delight. I wish I could just work part-time hours and live off it, fulltime work makes life not feel worth living. I want to take it easy like The Dude.

>>215197694
It's possible but you'll be up against literally 1,000 other candidates. We hired some new staff recently and had to sift through hundreds of resumes for one position. This is for finance. Depends on your industry but it's pretty rough out there. It's not impossible if you have a pronounceable name and are personable and likable. Trust me smaller firms still pick likable white guy over Indian scammer with a bunch of fake credentials

Yeah, it is extremely easy, you are just incompetent, unlikeable nigger.

It's crazy they actually created a world you have to prostitute yourself to someone with capital to survive. Like how the fuck did they pull that off
>>
>>215198125
Very simply. They stockpiled all the value, and mete it out to those willing to supplicate themselves for it.
>>
>>215198125
Having a job is unfortunately something that 99% of humans have had to do since time immemoriam. It's not prostitutijg yourself out to capital, it's making a living and supporting your family. You need to be 18 to post here by the way
>>
>>215195297
I would say "Yes, I do the jobs" very employedally.

wat

It's literally only since the last few hundred years that it was normal for even a large % in the western world, and only in the last few decades that it's normal for 90% of people.

Working on your own farm that you owned or making crafts that you sold yourself was normal, paying tribute to the local lord or guild was extremely common, but having a job was never normal for almost all of human history.

I think you need to read a little more history.

Lebowski asked if you're employed, not if you hav a job or not.
>>
>>215198627
It's still very, very different from 'having a job'. The way it worked for most people for most of history was an awful lot closer to someone today owning their own business and paying a fairly high tax rate.

The idea that 'having a job' is the normal way to work or make a living is a very, very new idea. It's about as nuts as the idea that 'being a housewife' was something halfway between slacking off all day or being a total slave to some dude.

You're screwed if you're a white male in the job market unless you have superb credentials. Any brown candidate will be looked at over you.
>>
>>215197694
I'm currently employed but searching for another job.
I've sent out probably 50 applications. The only interview I've gotten was from an application I submitted at the beginning of August. They got back to me for an initial interview at the end of August. They then contacted me for a followup interview at the end of September. Nothing since.

You sound like you believe living in a world where you were so tied to your station and status in life it became your last name, a world with painkillers or even antibiotics, where you had large families out of survival because you’re bound to lose at least a couple children, and you were an abject subject to the crown or whoever had the most power in your area some kind of proletariat paradise.

I don’t know if the point you’re making is something else but your goal post shift about not being able to own the land you live and farm on is telling. It’s not a minor point.

If the point your making is our current system is unnatural, I would agree it is but we can play that game and say anything beyond living like a rat is unnatural. How far you down the scale do you want to go? Nothing is free. If you want to live without modern stress you can’t take modern medicine with you. I don’t think most people really understand what that means. You can read accounts of people who were alive to see penicillin come out. We can’t imagine the difference.

Yes, you really can. Do medical advancements suddenly disappear if you decide you don't want to slave your life away for elites? Obviously not.
