Conservatives are taking the news better than I expected
  • Lmao I got one similar to that but mentioned Biden. I love being dumb when replying, which is fun when they reply, although pretty rare. Hopefully I get a response after pretending to have no idea who Biden or Trump are bait

    My favorite one was when I pretended to have no idea what Woke was and eventually I just got a "You have successfully been unsubscribed" midconversation, like the person just gave up.

  • I get one of these per day on average
  • Same! My wife and I joked that they're probably sent by some Conservative group to annoy the shit out of people which would be a good bit. Especially since replying "stop" only seems to get you more.

    think-about-it

  • What quotes/clips live rent free in your head?
  • A few Trump ones:

    "California is going to have to ration water. You know why? Because they send millions of gallons of water out to sea, out to the Pacific, because they want to take care of certain little tiny fish that aren't doing very well without water, to be honest with you"

    "I want to thank the White House Historical Association and all of the people that work so hard with Melania, with everybody, to keep this incredible house or building, or whatever you want to call it — because there really is no name for it; it is special — and we keep it in tip-top shape. We call it sometimes tippy-top shape."

  • Corporations that constantly whine like obese dogs being denied their treats over nobody wanting to work use AI to make their hiring process even more dogshit
  • I've been unemployed since November and the job hunting process is absolutely insane. One of the places I'm currently interviewing for is a position I applied to at the start January and it just sums up my experience so far, albeit a bit more on the ridiculous side.

    Two weeks to hear back after applying and schedule first interview, an HR screening, which was then scheduled a week after that email. Then they needed a week and a half to let me know if I was going to the second round technical interview. After the second round I had to wait another two weeks for them to schedule the third 'company culture' interview, which I recently had and hopefully will know something before this month is over.

    But fucking hell three rounds over two months for a relatively entry level position? When I was last in the job hunt, in 2018, I'd sometimes do three rounds in a week and a half. And those were for more senior positions than I'm applying to now.

    Idk shit's fucked. I still have a few months of unemployment and I haven't had to dip into my small amount of savings yet. But I am constantly feeling the judgement from my family and mother-in-law for spending time unemployed/not finding a job yet.

  • Anyone else in the US getting an absurd amount of scam calls?
  • No more than normal, usually like one or two a day.

    Though, I've been unemployed for a few months now and the amount of scam jobs I see is insane. I get so many emails all with the exact same wording and I feel like 50% of the jobs on LinkedIn are fake. There was a day last fall where I got 20 calls/texts from people from the same company wanting to schedule an interview... It was all within 15 minutes of each other, all different numbers leaving voicemails. Weird shit.
