I have to admit Iâ(TM)m a discouraged worker. My resume looks like you wanted to win every and all BINGO competitions.
Normal people invest in things that give them a reward. Not pick up a skill because one day it will be useful.
Other people who have more ability to learn than endure boredom get a lot of skills.
But the 5 year humiliation ritual that is fishing for jobs with bots and companies that pretend to hire and have 30 minute interactive systems to extract your data and waste your time are too much of a gauntlet.
I could actually build a heat to light converter easier than I can convince someone in HR that Iâ(TM)m a good worker.
If I had a living wage I could hire someone to do the tasks I donâ(TM)t have the bandwidth to do. Itâ(TM)s called specialization. Apparently only rich shits think their huge minds are valuable and need others to do the simple tasks. Like Elon has the engineers solve the simple âoebuild a robotâ work and he has the glorious âoehey, letâ(TM)s build a robot.â
Anyway, I just have to vent. The super smart people who could solve the worlds problems if given the support know what Iâ(TM)m talking about. Other people who can be motivated to work harder through fear â" they wonâ(TM)t get it. The more the dire consequences involved, the less likely I am to do it.
TL;DR. We built a specialized codependent society and outsourced the boring parts and didnâ(TM)t appreciate them and now it costs too much to get it back.
