Does the United States have a spending problem? Obviously, but I really wanted to talk about how the cost of living crisis is presenting itself in your community. That relates to this article because you can’t squeeze blood from a stone. If all of you have no disposable income, no savings, and a job market that can’t support your current cost of living… What happens if you lose your job? Do you default on loan obligations along with America because we are stretched to the edge. Should we vote in members of congress to pass more tax breaks for private jets?Are mods whack? Let me know in the comments.
I’m looking at sales jobs with proficiency and personality tests. Usually in between multiple interviews. The analyst jobs make sense but a 45 minute test with a pass and no interview is also insane. I’ve had a lot of job offers with unpaid training or paybacks or just about any predatory practice they can imagine.
I tried doing Customer service thinking it would be easy and I swear to god that phone rang every second I was logged in. Endless emails and teams messages from corporate simultaneously. $16 an hour and I got 2 higher ups paid to listen to my calls, and the machine made sure I never had a chance to breathe during 10 hour shifts. Oh and 10-50 hours a week with no say in the schedule. So some weeks I was bringing home $90. Hour long commutes and $17 an hour economy. I moved $300k in merch for them and was paid less than $3k. Between that and the multiple layers of supervision that don’t offer support, I assume they could raise my wage by 25% without cutting into their insane profits. That is my state’s biggest employer $1 billion revenue business.
Anyway I’m broadly moving around multiple industries and it’s all the same practices and it’s all a joke.
