Shoot, most of them won’t even acknowledge resumes.

The whole “online” thing is a complete joke and an utter waste of time.

A bad joke, in very poor taste.

I insist on showing up, and asking when the next interviews will be held.

They invariably tell me to apply online.

I never hear from them again.

If this were not so, I could get a job leveraging my intermediate knowledge of computers, networking, and IT, probably as an apprentice/intern (are those still a thing?) under a professional engineer...earning a halfway decent wage that allows me to pay for school without taking on inordinate amounts of debt.

Instead, I'm working at an arguably nice restauraunt, with weird hours (invariably <=60hrs/fortnight), earning just above minimum wage. (A lot of the food is ultimately imported. Result: very little room for labour/wages, despite the average cost of a meal there--something like $100+)

The only reason I haven't gone fully insane: My coworkers are nice, while they're speaking Engrish. (I'm quite certain they insult me in Korean)


The Obama recovery in action, folks! Millenials will end up being hit hardest in the long run.
