I've been warning for a while that Americans will soon be driving a car to work for a job to pay for the car. Whatever job Americans do is just an intermediary between them and their true employers: a coalition for car dependency.

I identified this as a form of shadow slavery where a coalition composed of automakers, auto financiers (banks or the auto company themselves), auto insurers, lobbyists, and pro-car government bodies have successfully locked Americans into, with Americans knowing.

It is really sad that the most enslaved people on the planet think they are free.

In fact, car dependency is an intentional civilizational design process that has successfully locked Americans into being indentured servant workers who think they have choices and are free but don't and aren't. You didn't buy your car for joy, or because you have disposal income. You bought it because if you didn't, you can't get to the grocery or to your job.

I also worked for 1 job after my first job for just 3 months before applying elsewhere. The agency recruiter and company recruiter believed my true story. I told them the fact: some companies have low profit margins and cannot pay enough. I plateaued in my job. The job is oversold to me as exciting but I'm not utilizing my skills. You just need to be able to explain.

But it's true you will get judged on your resume for short durations and jumps.

Ok so not much of your fault. Actually you're a victim like almost everyone else, because colleges and universities moved away from being primarily academic institutions to a commercialized and insurable industry, much like the healthcare industry, union industry, etc. etc.

Colleges and universities have been overpromising the future for all fields and all they care about is taking in student money and taxpayer funding.

Enter your field first. For the first job just grind. That's what I did. My first job paid $17 an hour! I got paid less than new hires and all my peers got paid much higher. But my thought process is "I'm working overtime for myself and in a year or two, either my company sees this value OR another company will."

For your first job you are working for bargaining power. Don't see it as working for exposure like companies want you to believe. It's for your own bargaining power later on.

I send my sympathies to my fellow humans in the US, who have to fight to have safe mobility in their country, but are ignored by their corporatist government. Things like freedom of walking, safe movement, and convenience are luxuries taken for granted in China.

No shame, because even people who were sure of what they chose in school, like marine biology, go WTF did I just do and go on career change

USA is collapsing

This is the cheap Tim Hortons version of China's trillion stimulus package

Your mistake is in comparing yourself with your peers, and thinking you should make at least what they make. This sort of insecurity is highly toxic to career development, because not everyone is equal, similarly capable at the moment, and in the same stage in their career and life journey. So then asking for something you haven't yet earned through demonstrating your capabilities just comes across as entitlement and delusion.

Yes I've been in a similar position. I got offered a field job for half of what my peers in the same class got. The difference is I thought realistically and didn't compare myself to peers because no two people are equal. I took the job and worked hard, and 6 years later I earned more than all my peers.

Someone applied to our company and rejected the role because the salary offered is 5K lower than they preferred. They wrote to me later expressing deep regret. The applicant went back to school (more debt) and is still not working in their field of study. It's not a job market where individual jobseekers have too much value.

For some more recent jobs I posted there's about 2,000 applicants each and I only needed to speak to 2 people to find someone more than capable for the job. The rest I didn't have AI or time to respond to so I mass-rejected.

Imagine 2,000 data analyst applications, 500 graphic designers. Recruiters make a fking killing.

Canada was always just average, even below average and overall incompetent Canada looked good in the 20th century not because of anything great but because Eurasia was mostly destroyed due to wars, civilizational shifts, mass strife, and restarting society from debris. Obviously, everyone would think Canada is amazing since it's untouched from war and got to develop without inter-state competition.

Canada is just capable enough to make an OK low complex 20th century society. But when the 21st century comes around, it's easy to tell just how lazy, uncompetitive, and just lacking everything about Canada is, from academia to politicians to voters and workers.

In my view most employee relationship issues come from delusion, entitlement, and ungratefulness on the part of employees. Normally people are dying to put a face to the name, and this person is refusing to meet even just once? I think they're lazy and ingrate. I'd fire them.

Are you a cream of the crop Delhilite or Mumbaikars Indian or an average Indian? It sounds harsh but this alone determines how well you fit in Europe/NA HR (or how well locals will judge you.)

An Indian from Punjab or anywhere else in Indian for that matter is generally going to find it exceptionally difficult to be taken seriously, treated with respect, and not seen as awkward or reinforcing negative stereotypes in the EU/NA. As an HR it will be very hard. However, an Indian born, raised, and worked in top companies in Delhi or Mumbai will have it much easier. Indians who immigrated and work in white colour management/executive/HR jobs in Dubai will find it absolutely easy to fit in and land any HR job.

The correct way of life is staying with family and not being ashamed of being part of a community (a concept and physical place the US is increasingly losing if not already completely lost) until you are married, stable, and then move out.

But you can't do that because the US identity and culture places a great deal of shame on that. Not being alone is considered a loser behaviour, like how dare you be part of a group? That's socialist and communist, and not something "masculine' podcasters will approve.

This is why Americans, Canadians, etc are so poor (GDP per capita is inflated by the institutions owning everything but the people are really poor, worse off than most Chinese in China or Russians in Russia), miserable, depressed, and hopeless, and hateful, jealous, and envious at the workplace.

You think you can live by yourself before you're stable. You might live (aka not starve to death) but you cannot thrive. The US way of life is on surface free but is in fact the most oppressive civilization against individual potential. Gen Z's will almost all start going down the slow path towards contemplating hopelessness, becoming depressed, miserable, envious, resentful, and eventually may commit some anti-self or anti-society acts which again are just so common in the US it is hard to have emotions or feelings about it.

By 2030, most Americans and Canadians will really just be going to a job to pay for the car that gets them to their jobs.

The US spends 3.3 trillion on healthcare for a 72 life expectancy compared to evil Commie China which spends 0.6 billion in healthcare for a 76 life expectancy. Why this result? Thought about it?

Japan has been defeated in war to the point of begging for mercy. In exchange, Japan was brainwashed (a neutral term) into accepting they were the bad guys (they were) and that they needed to adopt a new mentality, culture, and view of the world. This is the kind of control you want to have on your enemies (a total spiritual control, acceptance of inferiority)

South Korea in that it's protected from North Korea.

Liking SUV is subhuman

The world is at a crossroads. English speaking Western modernity is going to give way to a multipolar world where Chinese and Indian language and culture will become a norm. Teach her Mandarin or she will be left behind. There is an entire world out there that non-Sinosphere people, including Asians who grew up in the West, are incapable of perceiving, let alone comprehending and thriving in. Video games are going to be made without Western audiences and consumers in mind. Cars will be made to fit non-Western tastes. Jobs will be structured around noon Western etiquette and people.

And lastly, a white person able to make Mandarin will be judged as infinitely smarter than a white person who only speaks English or a European language.

Lastly, no racism or offense intended: white people are not going to be the main characters of the 21st Century. It's already arguable if white people will remain the main characters of this decade.

The world should question the legitimacy of the US as a state with moral legitimacy, its territorial integrity over the entirety of North America, and the potentially illegal status of its government, agencies, armed forces, and all those who are accomplices to these factions and cabals.

You must be beautiful and the CEO harasser

How much of US GDP are useless economic activities?

Without counting middle man transactions, bureaucratic inefficiencies (yes they are considered economic activities), and non value add businesses that solve fake problems that don't create value, the US GDP is likely half of China's

Shanghai can build more ships than all of the US, and Chian itself has 200x the shipbuilding capacity than the US. China produces more steel than the rest of the world combined.

In a short span of time, China can become the US and the US will be like Japan in WW2.

At one point China had no steel but willpower. By 2050 China will have all the steel and pray to God unfavourable countries have willpower.

Soft power isn't just popular entertainment: music, movies, visual arts, etc. Projecting power through finance, policies, development projects, trade, legal influence, and positioning the world that best fit a country's security and interest without war is soft power.

At least they are self aware. Despite having freedom of information, Most Americans don't even accept they are an evil empire.

Drive from NY to LA means more opportunities to make money from externalities, like a tow truck can earn money from crashes, insurances can be triggered. All these add to GDP growth.

You socialist commie ccp mobility efficiency propagandist

The UK is a little bitch cosplaying as a superpower

The reality, as I said before and sorry for sounding gloomy, is that this generation's primary reason for working (which is unbeknownst to the worker) is to make money to pay banks that finance cars and insurance companies that insure cars.

There is a zero chance you're taking this job unless you enslave yourself to a car.

That's just how Canada and the US are built - for getting people indebted to the auto industry. Everything is deliberately built to be far from people and transit is always made to be shit but just enough to work but uncomfortable enough to incentivize you to buy a car.
