Oh, you're a polyglot, but what skills do you have?
Oh, you can paint and write music, but what SKILLS do you have?
Oh you design bridges, but what skills do you have?
You know, it's really interesting you're a medical fucking doctor, but WHAT SKILLS DO YOU HAVE MOTHERFUCKER?
WHERE ARE YOUR SKILLS? I NEED SKILLS, WHAT SKILLS DO YOU HAVE, YOU ARE SKILLESS, YOU DO NOT FIT IN TO OUR CORPORATE CULTURE, PLEASE PAY US MONEY FOR HAVING TO CONSIDER YOU
I didn’t realise this was a rant I was going to answer seriously :agony:
I fix things and I can make you cum (I refuse to make you cum).
they have insidious and annoying ways of making us feel useless and valueless dont they
You see, attending college is like getting lobotomized. You arrive into the workforce with a -47 skill level and we are AKHTUALLY the ones who need to be compensated for having to train your dumbass to a baseline.
Wait, you didn't go to college and have +5 years work experience? You piece of shit, you trashy peon, you fucking worm, you shouldn't even be allowed on the streets.
If you can beat the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time without a guide you have everything you need to be middle management. You know how to do resource management and solve puzzles. You can think on the fly. And importantly, you have an understanding of keeping track of what the problem is and who to go to in order to discuss it. If you can do this, are capable of communicating information to others, and give something resembling a shit about the information given to you then you will be a fair middle manager. Your idiosyncrasies will just be part of how it goes for others. If this is insufficient it says something about the environment others are making for you.
Just remember this when you wonder whether you're worthy to apply for anything
I contribute nothing to society, but I have a Personal BrandTM. I'd like my starting salary of 3 million dollars, please.
I can swallow more AAA batteries before passing out than anyone else in the emergency room!
Unironically my skill in shitty environments and employments is that I'm a discipline black hole who will lower the entire standard of broom-up-ass behavior expected of people. I will crack jokes, tell stories, and offer everyone hits from my vape
I don't complain when I work. Doesn't sound like much but after you work enough you realize stuff like that is actually the important stuff
Good, you'll dovetail nicely with me onsite i complain enough for at least 2 people

You awkwardly watch as I dip under the desk and crawl out of the office
I'm good at creating vibes. I play guitar, and my band does a combo of doom/drone/noise that I call 'Cthulhu Doomnoise' and I always refer to our shit as 'moods' rather than songs.
