Is dead.
And if it is not, it is on life support and the pulse is getting weaker.
We’re starting to lose this guy…
The amount of people who read a job description, apply for the job and then act all bewildered when they are expected to do said job is absolutely staggering.
And the absolute surprise and vitriol from them when you tell them they are not doing said job properly is even more staggering.
“Well, I didn’t know it was going to be like this.”
Motherfucker, you read the job description!
Even better is when you ask them about previous jobs and they proceed to give you a list longer than the Gettysburg fucking Address. And of course, every one of those jobs sucked for one reason or another and they are usually variations on the same theme – That theme being, they expected the lazy fucker to do some work.
How freaking dare they, huh?
Now, I know full well there are plenty of crap jobs and terrible companies out there. I get it. But, man…When you’ve worked at 8 different places in the last 4 years and they all sucked that bad? Either you have a knack for picking the lousiest jobs ever known to man, or it’s time for some serious self-awareness.
There was a time when out of every 10 applicants walking through the door, at least 6 or 7 on average were potential hires. Now, and I am not joking, you are lucky if 2 are even worth giving the time of day to, let alone hiring.
And people wonder why more and more companies are turning to automation.
I’m sorry. We did everything we could…
