I hate that part of capitalism is verifying that you're not being scammed at any given moment.
I'm job hunting and went to a website to confirm if it was a real business. It just sucks that it's my personal responsibility™️ to make sure the email that replied to my application was the real thing. That somewhere between the email confirmations, the website redirects, and the occasional polite interviews, somebody could've just taken my personal information or gotten my money.
And then there's nobody who will do anything if I did get scammed.
But go off on how nobody wants to work anymore. This shit is exhausting.
I've been saying this about various apartment buildings that collapsed in recent years. Am I supposed to be inspecting buildings that I'm planning on spending significant time in? I don't know how...
shout-outs to the australian welfare system requiring 20 (could've sworn it was 40) applications per month to be eligible for benefits, directly feeding into this bullshit.
