People are in a cycle built by “rugged individualism” which leads many to attack others instead of lifting them up. They contribute to, and reinforce, the system which makes them so scared to lose their job.
Searching for a job right now is horrific. We have spmething like 8% unemployment in Canada and so many job posts aren’t even real, just there for the companies to get people’s information and see what the market looks like. You could be qualified and apply a hundred times and not even get ine interview. Then you have to ask yourself if you should switch careers, but that comes with the very valid fear that the new career will be just as difficult except now you have to start from scratch. It’s a huge mess out there.
Meh this blows. We (germany) are at 6% i think. But as far as I’ve heard, it’s the absolute same here with those fake-jobs that just test the market. Disgusting way to do that, but sadly efficient.
Also it probably helps to kill the spirit and hence…the salary. Switching is probably not the wisest anyway, except you already hate your current. Plus you probably would have to explain that.
And sad to hear that this “rugged individualism” is the same in CA. We even have a saying for that that goes like “lick the boots above, kick the heads below”. Which basically is the mentality of the, let’s say, intellectually more challenged people.
But capitalism breeds this, it’s an intended feature.
