I've posted here before about my difficulty finding a job and got a dm asking why I don't jump from one to another until I find my fit. I have and I use to be a job jumper the year after college. I jumped from one place to another in a few months time I was at 4 different places. I did social media management web development and digital content creation. The first time I did social media management and content creation (never gained training) I was employed about a month and 2 weeks, I got covid 2 weeks after starting (big fuckin bird flipped my way after 2 years) took 2 weeks to recover in that time I was still working just from home.

Only 11% of our workforce is represented by a union and about 30% of the population just doesn’t like them.
