We were born into the age of automation. We just need the benefits of that automation to apply to all of us instead of only the greedy billionaires at the top.

I was fired from my job two months ago. I started looking for work a couple months before i got fired. Nothing planned out. I put all my effort into finding another job while managing what bills i had with my last check and my PTO payout. My job hunt has turned up nothing. I've got over 40 pending apps on Indeed, no one has responded with anything but rejection letters. The one interview that i did get that went well is waiting on a background check. That was 3 weeks ago. They're still waiting for my background check as of this week. Temp agencies have turned up nothing for me. The contracts I've been offered are either too far away or they don't want me. I've got a friend who can put me to work but he doesn't have any jobs for at least two more weeks. I filed…

Probably the best manager I had and he sent an email saying he was fired. Of course now I wonder if I will get fired as well.

Here in the US. State of Wisconsin. Just a quick question. Thank you Reddit.

I work in accounting for a large public company and was reviewing transactions over the past year – I noticed some changes in certain compensations types… Further investigation revealed about $1 million dollars paid to the incoming CEO just to fucking show up on the first day. Not to mention the millions in ongoing compensation and then stock comp, etc. I really hate my job sometimes.
