Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.

As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.

Thank you and happy chatting!

Started applying today to put my feelers out there to see if anyone even responds. Like the best I can find is $18 an hour factory work. This was the same kind of work that existed during covid, nothings changed! It's still shit!!

Seems like more and more job listings are also just fake. This year my work started requiring a full job listing and application process (including interviews) for promotions within the same role where all that changes is the pay scale. You ask the people in HR why we're having to do this for roles where literally no external candidate could ever possibly be considered (because they deliberately understaff and wouldn't hire a new employee) and they just stare at you blankly. i-love-not-thinking

Legal, you have to post all positions
