Thing is, you can't do nothing and expect to get there or fuck up, get fired for it, and expect to keep a job.

Your right Cher, that is kind of of what I was trying to say too.

This whole "job" thing is a double edged sword, you have the people that actually want to work but don't have the knowledge/education or the communicational skills to obtain even the simplest of jobs; then you have the other people whom have the knowledge/education and the communicational skills to get jobs and they are just too fucking proud or lazy to start out beneath where they think they should be.


You sound like the type of boss I never want to have.

I "actually want to work" and I have a college degree in an area that I feel could help many types of businesses. Manual labor is not the cat's meow, but I'm doing it to make some money. I'm not "too fucking proud or lazy to start out beneath where [I] think [I] should be." Maybe you are talking about a different sort of individual, but someone who's graduated with a 4 year degree or higher has already proven they have what it takes to get a big task done. They have a right to feel like they should be placed above the janitors when they look for a job.

I think you have to be willing to take a step back when you change jobs. A lot of people will never step back despite the fact that some of their salary may have been due to seniority and not skill. As someone with (almost) a masters degree in management, I can see things from both sides.

When I went to my new employer I was straight-up and said I'd take up to a 10% cut but would expect a good 1 yr review. They ended up offering me only 5% less (presumably because they liked my attitude) and after 18 months I'm now back to where I was. 5 or 10% pay cuts are obviously easier to deal with at 80k than 35k but the same principle applies.

I'm gay and I even find that ghey. I totally need to friend him, though, because my friends are not that funny.

Allegedly his account got hacked or something. Whatever, I got some comic relief out of it.

Swifty threads deliver.
Sucks that his account was hacked though, and that he has to wait a week to defend himself... again.
