PSA before you quit your job.

Make sure you're worth a damn to us hiring folks. I've had so many applicants this last couple weeks, that I needed to take down the job offer to get through them all. Of over 100 candidates, I'd say 70% of them had either insufficient experience, or 0 experience at all. Half of the interviewees told me they quit their last job because of wage indifference. New hires got paid more than they were. Yes, that sucks, but when I hired one because she had great communication and availability in our interview it blew up in my face. Her former employer took her from 40 to 16 hours a week, abd she said it was her school's schedule. Nope, she just cant tell her ass from a hole in the wall. Instructing her is useless, she's college educated but can't seem to land a job in her field. Well, today…

So I hear a lot of “you are worth more than that”.. when people don’t even know what you do. Do we all have an fixed worth per hr or does it change per industry?

what's the curtesy?? i dont mean lowest wage. What jobs are “easy” enough to sell your time for min wage? in terms of easy, intermediate, hard, and ultra hard, would your NET worth change? ​ edit: I don't want you to tell me what the values of this group are. I actually just want to compare everyones ideas on wages and wage distribution. I think you can either argue that everyone gets the same nomatter what role they have in this community, or that some people get more than others if their role is hard to find and needed in our community and that way you encourage others to go there. Like what do U think should be the CEO's of a huge company that makes a lot of money NET worth….' ​ EDIT 2: Switching word “worth” for “net worth”

From 2019…oh boy…

Stumbled upon this article from Dec. 2019 today. Interesting read from todays' perspective. I feel like this is (part of) what has fueled all the rage about billionaires not paying a fair share of taxes. TCJA 2 Years later

[Joke] I bumped into the CEO of my company today while coming into the office.

He was getting out of his brand-new Lamborghini when I said: “Hey, that's a really cool car” He answered: “Thank you! If you work hard, apply yourself, and work extra hours, next year I might get another.”

How do I know if it’s me?

I loathe my job. And I actually like to work. I like to feel productive and social and I hate being idle. But the management is toxic. Very in to favoritism, cliques, passive-aggressive retaliation, no support whatsoever. The raises are minuscule with little hope for more. There’s constant push to work and achieve more, more, more, with no break or give. My current pay is so-so but there are good benefits. So my question is…how do you know when a job is worth it or when it’s too taxing on your mental health? I lie awake with anxiety thinking about being there and I feel miserable but I do have vacation time and insurance. So in this current climate, how do you decide if a job is worth it or not? Am I just being unappreciative?
