  1. As someone who went to college and DIDN'T graduate college, seeing videos like this let's me know that going to college for the SHORT amount of time I went, wasn't going to benefit me had I stayed longer. I'm glad I got out when I did. I struggled all throughout elementary and highschool. I even got my equivalency when I wasn't able to finish highschool and even THAT wasn't worth getting! I don't care what anyone says: can we normalize NOT asking someone if they have their highschool diploma/GED if it has nothing to do with whatever job in question? Let's also normalize that having a degree doesn't make anyone "deserving" of a job vs. someone without one. 😢 Its always one thing after the other: • Education, no skills • Skills, little to no education • BOTH education + skills = "overqualified!"

  2. Nope. Anything beyond ONE is too much! 2+ interviews ain't worth it! 🙅 There shouldn't be "rounds" of interviews! It should ONLY be ONE and no more than ONE!

  3. The school IS "the experience" that these idiot employers need! And they know it! Hell, even a highschool diploma/GED is WAY MORE THAN ENOUGH for an entry-level job! Especially since highschool doesn't have shit to do with the job at hand! Why TF they ask for it is beyond me! I went to college but not for a long period of time. I signed up to go KNOWING I would UTTERLY HATE it! Low & behold that's exactly what happened! I've ALWAYS DESPISED school! Elementary, highschool, the GED and college! I'm glad I only signed up for a short amount of time and not longer because I would've been burnt out and I would've flunked! I'm glad I didn't bite off more than I could chew! I liked work-study. That's it. Nothing more, nothing less! Hated the classes, hated the entire experience! I never really had the aptitude for school, nor should I have to! You CAN'T FORCE the brain, nor the body to like something it doesn't! You CAN'T FORCE the brain to understand something it doesn't! I went to school for ONE semester, ON A GRANT. I tested it out/gave it try and VERY QUICKLY realized it wasn't for me! I couldn't drop out because my grant wouldn't cover the cost if I did! After my semester was over, I was PERMANENTLY done! I'm glad I didn't waste my time longer than what I did, trying to get a piece of paper that I can't take to my grave with me! A piece of paper that will deem me "overqualified" if I apply for a job and then pay me a low-wage, plus put me in debt!

  4. I've been saying this since I was 16 years old. Its psychotic to expect anyone to have "prior experience" for an ENTRY level job! Operative word here is *ENTRY!* ENTRY level is LITERALLY when you are ENTERING the workforce FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME! An ENTRY level job is where you START! Its where you get experience! Edit: Even if you have a GED, $15/hr isn't enough. Quite frankly, REQUIRING a GED/highschool diploma for an ENTRY level job shouldn't be a thing! Like, WTF does a highschool diploma/GED have to do with cashiering, bussing tables, reception work, janitorial work, retail work, truck driving, bellboy, etc.???? Cover letters are ANTIQUATED! NO ONE should ever ask for a cover letter! I shouldn't have to BEG you to give me a chance! I shouldn't have to thank you when you didn't do shit for me! You didn't hire me, WTF am I giving you thanks for?!?! Your job is to review applications and resumes! That's WTF you get PAID to do! I'm supposed to give thanks to you for you doing your job?!?! That's like a parent thinking their kid "owes" them something for "giving them life!" Be so ffr! 😒 Also, ANY job that requires you to do ROUNDS of interviews, DON'T take that job! Its NOT worth it! 🙅 No job should be treating you like a med student that's doing a residency in a hospital where they have to do multiple ROUNDS of whatever med students do rounds of! Anything beyond ONE interview is EXTREMELY TOO MUCH! It doesn't matter how many supervisors, managers, etc. there is! ONE manager is ENOUGH! Why TF does someone need to interview with MULTIPLE people?!?! That's sickening and disrespectful to the job-seeker! You're playing with the job-seeker, dangling a carrot in their face, WASTING & DISRESPECTING their time and energy! That's NEVER okay and it NEVER will be! ESPECIALLY NOT for an ENTRY level, fresh-outta-highschool job! And NEVER move for a job! UNLESS you're in a DV situation or you know you'll be there for a long time, okay, yes. Absolutely move away. However, if you're NOT in a dangerous situation with a psychotic abuser, controller, narcissist, gaslighter, manipulator, etc., DON'T move. There was this girl who moved because she got a new job in a city/state she wasn't originally from. After she moved, she got fired 3 months later! She packed up her entire life just to get fired 90 days later! That's a HUGE fear I have!

  5. ​ @LHSHarmon  The second interview doesn't tell you nothing different from the first! Its supposed to be ONE interview ONLY! Anything after ONE is an interrogation at that point! And even if someone did "fake" their way past the first interview, so what?! That's the point! The point is to LAND the job, NOT be interrogated for 2+ more interviews down the line! I've been homeless before and I'm disabled and I've been PREVENTED from working for yeeeaaaarrrsss! I've gone on interviews, applied for employment help with navigating all this BS because I physically and mentally CAN'T do this shit on my own – and it's gotten me nowhere! I technically shouldn't have to work because I have so many disabilities that I can't keep track of! I shouldn't have to interview for an ENTRY-LEVEL job! I shouldn't even have to apply for an entry-level job or any job, period! These employers PREVENT people from working which is why there are so many homeless and disabled people now! These employers are disgusting, lazy, entitled and rude and disrespectful and hypocritical! The fact that they have the AUDACITY to ask for a second "interview" (*which is really code for: "you didn't get the job but I wanna have some fun and play games and collect peoples information and interrogate!"*) just shows how unprofessional they are!

  6. Him: "YoU dOn't DeSeRvE tO mAkE $20/hr If YoU wOrK fAsT foOd! ThAt's A sTArTeR jOb FoR tEEnaGeRs! yOu CaN gEt A dIfFeReNt JoB!" 🤡 Where? 🤔 "Get a different job", WHERE?! And who TF is he to put an age limit on an entry-level job?! 🤔 The VAST MAJORITY of people that work fast food and retail are in their LATE 20s to earlier 40s, possibly 50s! What about the people that CAN'T get a job anywhere else due to limited skills, possibly limited education, maybe they're not hireable for MOST places! There's people that aren't hireable ANYWHERE! What about people with disabilities?!?! What about people that can't afford to move?!?! What about people that might have kids with special needs and the city, state, town they live in is the ONLY one that offers the care in question their kid(s) may need?!?! What about the people that have bills and rent and that McDonald's job is the ONLY income they have?!?! What about the people that ENJOY working at McDonald's, Starbucks, Target, Walmart, etc!?!? I DESPISE people who talk down on those who work an innocent job and then wants to dictate how much they should get paid! Why TF shouldn't they make a LIVABLE WAGE just like YOU?! If they "don't deserve" to make $20/hr, you don't have a right to go there and receive a service from them! If those people weren't working there, you wouldn't be able to shop for groceries, clothes, buy that cup of coffee you like, etc! Like...how how TF do people NOT see that the VERY people they're degrading are the VERY people they're receiving a service from on a regular basis?! And if he has kids (*fingers crossed he has doesn't!*), why the hell wouldn't he want his kids to have an income that they could live off of?! I despise people like him! What he's doing is ageism and ablism! He has NO right to dictate where someone "should" or "shouldn't" work based off the person's age and company/franchise in question!.

  7. I said this to some other fool in the comment section under another video that tried to argue and defend having more than one interview! Anything more than ONE interview is overkill! Its an interrogation & harassment!!!! IDGAF what ANYONE has to say! I peeped this shit years ago! Edit: Even a "cover letter" is overkill, nonsensical and ANTIQUATED!
    23
  8. I have ALWAYS felt the same way! Since I was younger! I've been looking for a job for almost 14 years straight! I've been perpetually exhausted since 2011, when I was 16 years old! Mind you, there's a child labor law in the USA that PREVENTS people from working for the first 15 years of life! I wasn't allowed to work under age 16. I hate when people say you have to find what you're "passionate" about. I'm not "passionate" about shit! Why do I have to be? I hate when people say you have to "sale" yourself to employers! I'm not a prostitute or a slave! Why would I do that when I'm not for sale? 🤔 I hate when employers ask, "what's special about you?" Why do I have to have anything inherently "special" about me when there's not a damn thing special about you? 🤔 I hate when people ask questions they don't/won't answer themselves! What about people with disabilities like myself that CAN'T work and shouldn't have to either???? I just want money in my bank account that only I have access to so I can do whatever I want with! So I can travel and be able to fund my life and enjoy my own life like everyone else and buy the things →I← want for myself. That's it!

  9. Exactly. 💯 People love to say, "nobody wants to work." Technically, people aren't supposed to! We shouldn't have to! People love to say, "nobody wants to work" while simultaneously ACTIVELY PREVENTING people from working!
    16
  10. Exactly! 💯 I don't know why the f*** they would even ask for a 2nd interview! Just tell them they didn't get the job and move on! Asking someone for a 2nd interview is literally code for "you didn't get the job!"

  11. Why couldn't they do TikTok on their lunch break or on their OFF DAY??? 🤦

  12.  @Ang-iz5hv  Actually, I'm correct. I'm not incorrect. If a person wanted to be doctor for example, "the experience" would be the schooling, not on-the-job training. That's just an example. Yes, there are on-the-job trainings like cashiering, bussing tables, stocking shelves, dish washer, etc. Elementary school doesn't teach that. Highschool doesn't teach that. College is *not* basic education. Basic education was already achieved in elementary school. That's where you learn how to do basic reading and math. Highschool is just unnecessarily harder and college is even harder than that. That's why I mentioned that highschool is way more education than employers need for an entry-level, low-wage paying job, especially since highschool has *nothing* to do with the job at hand. Why do you need a highschool diploma/GED to wash dishes, bus tables, work retail, stocking shelves, cashiering, etc? Especially since, as we both agreed upon, is something you're supposed to learn on-the-job???? It'll never make sense! If employers are going to require these transcripts, documents, etc., they need to explain how the hell it correlates with the job in question! What does a college degree, highschool diploma/GED have to do with the entry-level job at hand???? And why? Why is it necessary to have???? Why do you need a college degree to be a waitress, bartender, cashier, Uber/Lyft driver, delivery boy/girl, hostess, receptionist, etc.???? Same thing with trade school. I'm not against trade school but there's no diplomacy or degree or certification to work in a grocery store, department store, etc.

  13. Do your own nails! I saw a video of a lady who got her nails done and she ended up getting an infection. She had to sue the nail salon. Its cheaper to just do your nails at home. There's tutorials on YouTube for free.

  14. You need a highschool diploma to do a trade and a college degree to be an aircraft mechanic! 😒 Try again!
    12
  15. ​@BreeLove-dz3cf Exactly! 💯 The o.p. question is stupid as hell! 😒 How TF is someone supposed be a receptionist without being HIRED and TAUGHT/TRAINED from scratch?! How TF would they "lose time" teaching someone the role of the job they want that person to do?! This is why there's people that don't have job experience now! A person LITERALLY CAN'T get "prior job experience" without experience in and of itself! The same way someone had to get up off their ass and teach the o.p. how to drive a bus FROM SCRATCH – the same goes for literally any other job too! I pretty sure the o.p. didn't come out the vag already know how to drive a bus! No! Someone had to teach them how! No person "already knows" how to do anything! It has to be TAUGHT/TRAINED to them! A person can't cashier unless it's TAUGHT to them! There are no cashiering classes in school! A person can't stock shelves, keep track of inventory in a grocery/department store unless it's TAUGHT to them! A person can't drive a vehicle unless it's TAUGHT to them! A person can't cook unless it's TAUGHT to them! A person can't be a receptionist, secretary, do data entry, etc. unless it's TAUGHT to them! A person can't do hair, nails, makeup, become a barber, etc. unless it's TAUGHT to them! A person can't become a healthcare worker unless it's TAUGHT to them! IDK what the o.p. is on with dense comment! 😒

  16. I'm sorry but bootleg Veronica Mars at 12:04 is buggin'! If being uncomfortable means panic and homelessness and struggling to find work, I don't want any parts of it! 🙅 I can see if it was a DV situation where you HAVE to make moves to get out of that situation but if that's not the case or anything similar to it, no. Just no. I'm all for prioritizing mental health and self-wellbeing but NOT in what she's talking about!
    8
  17. Wrong! If "there's jobs out there," it shouldn't take "effort" to find, nor get! It should be EASY and freely handed out with no experience and training provided!

  18. Well, no one asked anyone to get a masters degree. 🤷 And if bartending is hiring and pays a decent wage, why not?
    7
  19.  @LHSHarmon  Dude, even YOU said "80% of jobs only need ONE interview!" 🤦 Anything after ONE is too much! Edit: And yes, I've been to/in more than enough hiring processes to know that ONE interview ONLY is LITERALLY ALL they need! The fact that you want to make job-seekers jump through unnecessary hoops and have them do a second interview, shows you were interested after the FIRST! 🤦 So you might as well hire them! These low-life, unqualified, unprofessional, lazy, hypocritical, disrespectful, discriminatory employers KNOW from the jump if they want you or not! If employers want "the best of the best", they're NEVER going to find it! There's no such thing as the "perfect" employee! If that's the case, they can get up off their ABLE-BODIED behinds and run their OWN business WITHOUT the labor of anyone else! A job-seeker is either going to have a basic education with no skills, skills with no basic education and if you get lucky enough to find someone with BOTH skills AND a basic education, they're "over qualified!"

  20. Good for you! 🙃😒 Some of us have disabilities!
    7
  21. Wrong. It's only frustrating for the job-applicants! NOT the employer! More times than not, those who don't give the best interview are the BEST hires for the jobs and yet, they get looked over! The company already looks bad as is!
    7
  22. Ah yes. Let's "gatekeep" trades/jobs so people can never have an alternative, probably end up homeless and never make it out! 🙄😒
    7
  23. If the employment is oh-so low, who's at fault for that? I'll give you a hint: employers! There's people that have been jobless for years! There's people that have been homeless for years! I'm talking CHRONICALLY homeless! 2+, 5+, 10+, 15+, 20+ years homeless & jobless! Employers are the problem, not job seekers!
    6
  24. What's so "wrong" about "cush" jobs/trades??? 🤔 That's how it's supposed to be! That sounds wonderful! It sounds smart too! Low-stress, low-level, work independently, minimal labor, minimal education, non-competative jobs are the way to go, impo.
    6
  25. ​@meateater4life551 So what's "wrong" with being "soft"??? 🤔 Working at a desk IS hard work! Someone has to do it. Why not a person who's "soft", likes sitting at desk, cozy, minimal stress, minimal labor and hopefully has AC? If working at a desk isn't hard work, why doesn't the boss do it themselves then??? Be your own secretary! Answer your own calls! Schedule your own appointments! Keep track of your own bookings! Etc.
    6
  26. There's never a justifiable reason for a 2nd, 3rd, 4th + interview. Even ONE interview is too much! I'm sorry but a 30 minute "get-to-know" to see if you "vibe" with whatever said company in question is way too much! Employers ask questions that have nothing to do with the job description that THEY posted, they ask disrespectful questions that they KNOW are disrespectful and wouldn't answer themselves! They complain about being short-staffed and then complain about people being "lazy," having "no work ethic" and being "entitled!" They honestly should just be quiet and hire people, no questions asked! You can't complain about someone not working or being a "NEET" when you tell them they're not qualified for to do anything, as well as actively preventing them from working via rejection! There's shouldn't even be ONE interview!

  27. And if you don't know anyone??? 🤔

  28. ​ @humanheart5229  The o.p. is 1000% correct! 💯 ONE interview IS ENOUGH! They don't have to be a hiring manager to know that! Anything beyond ONE interview ISN'T worth it!
    6
  29. All of this! 💯 Same here! I'd rather have a "cushy", white collar, desk job/WFH job! I'm NOT doing NOTHING that requires manual labor! I'm not built for that, I'm not cut out for that! Never have been, never will be and don't want to be either! The less work, the better!
    5
  30. Nah, its a red flag there's more than ONE interview. Anything over ONE interview is an interrogation and harassment! If you're gonna give someone a 2nd interview, clearly you took an interest with the job-seeker after the FIRST INITIAL interview. So why not just hire them? Why give them a second interview? Its NOT worth it if they want more than ONE! They KNOW after the first interview if they're going to hire you or not.
    5
  31. Agreed! 💯 But the college degrees is only part of the problem. Its highschools that are also an issue! When I was school, teachers told us that if we didn't go to college, we'd end up flipping burgers for the rest of our lives! Little do they know, you make more money "flipping burgers." 🤷 I remember being told by multiple people that if you finish highschool or finish getting your GED, you'd be good to go. I was told you could get an "entry-level" job such as cashiering, working retail, working fast food, receptionist jobs, etc. and that never happened for me! Also keep in mind, I went to college and I have disabilities. I tried college but I didn't want to be in debt. I wanted to go to trade school but I didn't know what trade I wanted to do. I just know what I CAN'T do and WON'T do! Both highschool AND college play a role! As well as employers! If you have the skills but not the education, its a problem! If you have the education but not the skills, it's a problem! If you have the education + the skills minus the experience, its a problem! If you don't have ANY experience, its a problem! Experience and skills go hand & hand! When you gain experience, skills naturally come with that too! If no one is willing to hire an inexperienced person, that person will NEVER have experience, thus not gaining any skills either!
    5
  32. The fact that "rounds" is in the same sentence as "interview" is a problem! Anything that has more than ONE interview isn't worth it! And can we talk about the fact that in the USA there are child labor laws that literally PREVENT people from working for the first 15 years of one's life???? On a job application, it'll ask you if you're 16+ or 16 and over! You MUST be 16 at MINIMUM, 18 at the MAX!
    5
  33. ​ @parsimoniouslypolished86  Well, the person needs the job FIRST in order to GAIN the skills and experience. You can't know a person's character without giving them a chance to display that! As far as education, having a degree doesn't make you "deserving" of a job vs. someone without one, depending on what kind of job that is. If an entry-level, low-wage job that you're supposed to be taught on-the-job, you shouldn't need a degree for that. If it's something like cardiology then yes, you need a degree. As far as race and gender, race shouldn't play a role but its almost like a double edge sword. On one side, its discrimination to deny someone a job due to their race/gender. I'm not even sure why the question is asked on applications, to be honest. On the other hand, there's people that feel like they're entitled to a job because they're in the minority.
    4
  34. No. That's overkill. There should be no screening and no interview! It should just be hiring the person for a job, giving them a chance right from the start, teaching them and paying them! No questions asked!
    4
  35. This is such a misogynistic comment! Everyone doesn't want to be a stay at home wife. Its no different than when a man says a woman's degree "doesn't matter" and yet, he gets praised for having one!
    4
  36. Agreed! 💯 I despise people who tell other people to "get a job" and then when that person tries to, they're denied without being given chance! Like, there's ignorant people that tell homeless people to "get a job!" How TF are they supposed to "get a job" when they're homeless and and disabled and have no prior job experience?! How TF are they supposed to get prior job experience without being hired for a job in the first place?! Everyone NEEDS their first start! And there's a lot of people that are PREVENTED from working because of employers!

  44. @JessG_20  I'm pretty sure a person is entitled their own time and labor! I'm pretty sure a person is entitled to a job so they can pay for the basics necessities and amenities! If not, don't call people "lazy!" Don't say a person has "no work ethic!" Don't say people "don't wanna work!" Don't say anything when people steal the things they need and want! Rejecting someone from a job, quite literally prevents that person from working! And keeps them at a homeless level of poverty, if they're not there already! But ok.

  45. The woman with purple hair is smart and just because she didn't understand what hierarchy was doesn't make her dumb! I understand exactly what she's talking about! Nobody has "hierarchy" over anyone! And no one's ROLE is more important than anyone else's! She never said anything offensive or rude! She contributed to the conversation and her dumbass boss got offended for nothing! She described what sounded like a reminder for something her boss should've BEEN done and didn't! Plus, she even said she doesn't understand hierarchy! She understands positions on the same level as ROLES that everyone has allocated to them! She even gave examples! Person "A" does this role, person "B" does that role, etc. She said she didn't understand the whole hierarchy thing and I wholeheartedly agree! That doesn't make her incompetent or dumb or "not smart at all", as you put it!

  48. I've been saying this since I was 16! And y'all just now catching on???? Here's a better idea: abolish ALL interviews! Even ONE interview is too much! Anything more than ONE interview is harassment and interrogation! There shouldn't even be ONE interview! Just be quiet and hire people for jobs! Point, blank, period! Give them a fkn chance and PAY them! No questions asked! No conditions attached! No nothing! You cannot complain about people being "lazy" when you actively put them in that position! Imagine calling someone "lazy", claiming they "don't want to work" and then when they try to fill out a job application, you PREVENT them from working via rejection by telling them they're "not qualified" and that you'd rather "go with other candidates." Be so ffr! 😒 A person technically shouldn't have to work since they NEVER asked, nor chose, nor consented to be born in the first place! I have disabilities so I technically can't work and I shouldn't have to either! Young people also shouldn't have to work to pay into a system when they're NEVER going to get a return on the money that the taxes from their checks paid into! Old people are living off the backs of younger people, expecting the younger people to pay for their social security! If you want people to "stop being lazy," HIRE THEM AND PAY THEM!
