Rookie numbers. I get emails asking me if I am interested in jobs I haven't done in twenty years.
I got one not long ago asking if I want to fix printers for $15/hr.
No offense, buddy, but there's not a time that I would have ever accepted that.
McDonald's in VT pays more hourly wtf
Never had a job I would be so down to do something like this, but instead I have to go through interview after interview just for them to say they found someone better qualified, come on it's just bussing tables it doesn't require a PhD 💀
I left out some vital info. I've got two decades of IT experience. I said there's not a time but likely I would have taken it right when I graduated because I was making $10/hr to be out in the sun and get screamed at by a moron. But they wouldn't have wanted me because I hadn't been in IT for 20 years at that point.
Good luck, friend! I don't know the beginning job market anymore so I have no advice, but I really hope things go well for you.
It's so bad I'm communist now :/
