    Another example of making up words to get mad about.

    NEET would have been "people not willing to be scammed.

    Now you're expected to let people take advantage of you or you're doing aonething wrong.

    Wild that people wont work a job if the full time job doesn't pay them enough to live.

      At this point I wish the scam was still there. I don’t know what the hell got into porky, but all of them are super picky now and refuse to hire anymore, especially at the entry level. What few jobs you see are usually senior level or a fucking C-suite job.

        I haven't had a single job where I haven't had to undergo weeks of training and months of building muscle memory to become adept at, yet every fucking job posting seems to demand years if not decades of experience and dedicated expensive training programs/education/certification, even for the most basic shit

        Like what the fuck for? Give me a week's crash course and let me loose, there's nothing about 80% of (non-specialist, I'm obviously not talking about doctors or engineers or whatnot) jobs that someone can't figure out on the fly

          In programming they want someone who contributes as much as the other employees from day 1. It strikes me as deeply unrealistic.
