Humans should go back to nature

Capitalism is killing humanity. Capitalism kills the planet. I don't want to live in a world where I need to work in order to just barely live. I interview, 2 days for a job. I hear nothing from them, after both interviewers were practically salivating over my work experience and acting all like “I see no reason why you shouldn't be hired” … And I'm all over Indeed and others, applying to anything. I see ads saying you don't even have to have a GED to get this job. Jobs where even if you only have half a brain, so long as you can walk and talk, you're hired. But me?

Capitalism is killing humanity. Capitalism kills the planet.

I don't want to live in a world where I need to work in order to just barely live.

I interview, 2 days for a job. I hear nothing from them, after both interviewers were practically salivating over my work experience and acting all like “I see no reason why you shouldn't be hired” …

And I'm all over Indeed and others, applying to anything.

I see ads saying you don't even have to have a GED to get this job. Jobs where even if you only have half a brain, so long as you can walk and talk, you're hired. But me? I'm over-qualified… they're looking for “walk and talk”ability when I have “walk, talk and chew gum” on my resume. That makes me over-qualified. I have full control of my motor functions. That makes me over-qualified. I don't need to hold anyone's hand to go potty … that makes me over-qualified.

I don't require special accommodations, or sponsorship to legally work. That makes me over-qualified. I only speak one language, and it's not Spanish … that makes me under-qualified.

I could be looking for a job cleaning toilets, but because of all the above mentioned reasons, I'm over-qualified, and under-qualified at the same time
