Woah watch your language, can't let kids see the word wicked!
nasty to the core
I genuinely want to commit acts of violence against my fellow man after seeing that censorship.

Give him the chair!

A mormon censored this
Job requirements to have a car are discriminatory to the indigent. Most cases, a company could provide a vehicle but chooses not to. Love when companies code it with "access to reliable transportation" knowing full well that in most cases, the bus is not frequent enough to be reliable. Access to reliable transportation should be a right, ie public transit should be way better.
When I was a mere lad, I was outright rejected for a stockist position at the local supermarket because I did not have access to a car at the time.
Said supermarket was literally across the street from my house. I could have done a handstand and walked over there on my hands if I wanted to. When other employees couldn't make it in because of snow, I could have showed up still. I mentioned all of this to the manager. "Policy is policy," I was told.
This was needless to say a one of those formative experiences for me. Policy is policy, but petty authority is petty authority, and worth exactly as little as you think it is.
That store is now out of business, and went under only a handful of years after I failed to get hired there. Maybe I dodged a bullet, maybe I didn't. Insofar as I was ever made aware the reason they tanked was not necessarily due to staffing issues, but we can always hope and dream anyway.
That was an amazingly stupid and likely sycophantic manager. You dodged a bullet either way. Hope you are well now!
The keys are attached to your bootstraps, you've just got to pull them hard enough. Everything works precisely as Founding Father Jesus intended.
Somehow the bootstraps don't apply to companies.
The thing that smells like bullshit is "he had every certification under the sun".
Getting certified is not an expression of smarts, but of money / privileged access. Good but poor techs in their 20s are self-taught.
Where did he get the money for a ton of certs, while being unable to afford a car?
A lot of vocational schools will pay for your first attempt at certs, it's the only reason I gave comptia the time of day and got the incredibly overpriced a+ and net+ certs.
Yeah but hardly what an IT Manager would consider "every cert under the sun" i.e. all the big ones at least.
Well you see there's this thing called hyperbole which is almost always included within idioms like that.
Yeah, that's exactly what I just accounted for.
I never thought anyone would consider wicked to be an offensive cunting word.
Maybe he was wanked smart?
I'm usually wanked stupid
Fuck off with the censorship.
They just repost from elsewhere and tax slrpnk traffic by choosing to upload locally at the cost of pixels for viewers, and upticking bandwidth of people they will never meet that host said instance.
We need a world where transportation and housing aren't dependent on our luck and the generosity of strangers
This mostly tells me tech jobs are just not that great anymore. Every cert under the sun for tier 1 that payed so small it took awhile to be able to buy a cheap car. Tech became known because you could grab an entry level with just a bit of tech know how or a cert and could quickly move to better pay with a littler experience or credentials.
Buying a car after just a month doesn't sound bad
I guess if he bought it outright but I assume he financed. Maybe if he just moved to the local it would make sense.
You assume a lot. My colleague bought a $400 beater the second he got the first paycheck. You don't have to go for new / barely used, you can always sell it off or just drive it to the scrapyard.
Last time I saw a car that can start for hundreds of dollars was last millenium.
It starts and drives. Leaks oil though
Why are there obscured words in this post?
This is beautiful.
We need to be like this with each other because the money monkeys at the top of the money monkey hierarchy are incapable of caring about actual work skills.
