Well hopefully things get better in a few years when the post-cabal days hit, but yeah. Right now is like, the worst part of life for people in their mid 20s. If you don't have rich parents, you've basically just been abandoned by everyone at this point. I couldn't tell you the number of times I've been pissed off by some old fart talking about how "no one wants to work anymore", while I put in 20+ Applications a week trying to find literally anything, and then either never hearing anything back or being offered what amounts to a slave contract.

Heck, I once had a company offer to pay me $7 an hour, with no overtime, no holidays, no food breaks, working 6 days a week, doing 10 different part time jobs for various time ranges each day, for 15 hours a day, that ALSO included requiring me to travel between physical locations at the drop of a hat within a 4 hour radius of their central location.

Yes, they specified no food breaks. You were not allowed to have breakfast, lunch, or dinner while on the clock. So since they didn't pay overtime (and had no legal obligation to) that was offering $14,560 a year, to work 90 hours a week, and require me to drop everything and drive (on my own dime) to any of their locations within a 4 hours radius at the a moments notice.

It wasn't a hard decision, since gas costs alone made it impossible to accept. I would have LOST money taking the job, based on gas alone. And that's not accounting for tires, oil, etc. Or my physical and mental health, etc.

So yeah, entery level job market is worse than most realize right now. But I have faith it'll get better within a few years, and hopefully we won't end up like Japan's Lost Generation and there'll be some kind of "affirmative action" for us specifically because we got screwed over by the cabal due to timing.
