      Boss made a dollar
      I made a dime,
      That was a poem.
      From a simpler time.

      Now boss makes a thousand.
      And gives us a cent
      While he’s got employees.
      Who can’t pay the rent.

      So when boss makes a million.
      And the workers make jack.
      Then that’s when we riot.
      And take our lives back.

      In the US civil service the website used for applying for government jobs (USAjobs) is whitelisted and it’s pretty commonplace to see people using it at work, on their work machines.

    I made an auto hotkey script that opens up tabs for all of the job sites with my preferred search terms. Then I can quickly scroll through them every day. You just do your search and save the URL then have AHK open a new tab with that URL, that way you didn’t have to type anything in or mess with settings. I also recommend using incognito so that the sites didn’t hide jobs.

      What job site hides jobs from people?

      Do they hide them so you will pay for a better search result?

      I’m currently searching for a job for after I relocated to a new town and Indeed sucks ass, I choose the town and it gives me jobs in other provinces.

        If you’re logged into indeed it will only show you jobs that are the same as your experience level. I’m not sure about any of the other sites, I didn’t really have accounts on many of them. If you’re looking to find a higher paying job, it will hide them. I forgot to mention to delete the session id from the URL. If you copy the URL after searching, then it will still have information in it that tells the site who you are.

        You can also use Google to search and it aggregates jobs from across many different job sites.

          I’ve never logged into Indeed, but likely they are using trackers to see who I am and what jobs I’m looking at.

          Google sucks, many ads were expired but still showed up in the results.

        That’s too many clicks for me, I have to launch the browser and find the bookmark folder? I can just run my script.

          What do you do on the computer that your browser is not already open?

          Once it’s open you can middle-click the folder to open all bookmarks inside.

            I open those in chrome without any add-ons, I normally use Firefox with add-ons that can cause problems with some websites. I don’t want to have to look for a bookmark folder, I just want to click thing on desktop. I can also modify the script later if I want to add an input box in order to search for specific jobs on all the sites at once.

      Even volunteers. Yup. The amount of colleges and hospitals and everything else you can think of looking for e.g. older retirees who are bored, or young teens who need experience or whatever, they’ll take it all. Without paying them a cent. Then when they get enough of those, they start to cut back on the paid staff. The poor volunteers do not even realize that by “helping” they are putting people out of real jobs:-(. [Edit: which then continues that cycle where they have to beg for more help b/c they are in such “need” and won’t someone think of the poor children, or the people undergoing cancer treatment or whatever - don’t you want to… “help”?] Meanwhile the managers are seen walking around in expensive italian shoes…

      Even the most non-profit activities can be weaponized to become a tool to make moar money, if only you are willing to do that to people! 🤮

      Far too real.

      A meeting - Ok

      The boss asking a clear question - Unlikely

      People actively brainstorming - Possible enough

      The boss listening instead of just going with whatever he decided beforehand - Completely impossible

        Yes, the process is unrealistic for comedic effect.

        I probably should have explicitly stated I meant the conclusion. Perhaps this is the boss’s imagined thought process to reach that predefined conclusion that they announce at the end of the meeting.

      Not just here either

      I swear every humor-based Lemmy community eventually becomes a “definitely not making strawmen to support my political views” bitchfest

    That’s not how you retain your top performers. You retain people all right, but your top performs ain’t it.
