Try going directly to a college or university and speak to humans directly. Middle-men have taken over the entire hiring process for most companies because there is coin to be made by putting up one candidate over another. Bring back classified ads in local newspapers. Surely printing newspapers everyday, like they used to, would have less of an environmental impact than just one datacenter? Yeah, I know, Boomer shakes his fist at cloud.
Of course. While the whole worlds population is being phased out this guy does pie in the sky mulling but, because he can't mull, he needs to throw money at it in a desperate, quiet rage.
Everything went to hell economically in the 1990's once the powers that be discovered that the suburban youth will pay $200 for bluejeans. After that, all bets were off and the greed rocket just kept rising and rising.
Whenever I am out and about I will eventually see someone doing something with a step-ladder. I walk up to them and say "Is that your step-ladder?". They'll look at me a little odd but answer yes. Then I ask them, "Did you ever know your real ladder?". Then we usually both laugh/chuckle and I go about my day. Been doing it for years.
There is more money in it for trump if he pushes the illegal fentanyl trade over health care. Not that he's doing that but, given the choice, he will always go for the money. So there you go.

Lou Reed lyric..."Give me your tired, your poor, your hungry, I'll piss on them, the statue of bigotry says". That line always struck me hard. Also, "Americans don't care too much for beauty. They'll piss in a river, dump battery acid in a stream, then watch dead fish float to the shore and complain that they can't swim!".
I still don't get why you wouldn't get a discount for checking yourself out. No wonder all those high-falutin' CEO's think consumers are a bunch of dumb schmucks. The real heroes are the clerks who "miss" scanning something from time to time.
Thank you as well MrShankles! I left reddit for lemmy. I think my next move will be a daily walk to the coffee shop and see if I can meet some like-minded folks in real-time. It's been too long and the human touch is sometimes needed to re-center yourself. My fear is that everyone out there are assholes or, worse yet, I'm the asshole.
