An outdoor marquis sign with the words, “The employee shortage is so bad that long haired freaky people can now apply!”
Which is a reference to the 1971 song “Signs” by the group Five Man Electrical Band.
AKA some men and most women?
It’s kinda the opposite right now, isn’t it? Too few jobs for too many people?
The impressions on that front are heavily manipulated, employers want you to think there’s no jobs no matter how many jobs there are.
This is why they coordinated a tech worker glut after hiring everyone with a pulse and only keeping the pretty ones. Large movement like that don’t reflect economic movement but collusion in the employer class to keep wages low.
They employ all kinds of mind tricks, like testing how much bullshit you will wade through just to submit your resume. How many interview steps you’ll go through and of course so many “shadow” job postings, to collect and compare how is the most desperate for jobs and applying everywhere.
It’s employment warfare and you are losing !
Depends heavily on your location.
Posts about employee shortages after years of AI-driven mass layoffs followed by Trump government mass layoffs, which are further followed by more job cuts as Trump’s tariffs stall economic activity. Kinda tone-deaf, doncha think?
No no. Don’t you see? It’s the lazy welfare recipients. They don’t want to work anymore
I want those people who spout that shit to be forced to do the math on how anyone can get to a good place in life working endless hours in a crappy-paying job, while still having anything that resembles an actual life. Heck, even without having a life and dedicating your every waking hour to work, it’s quite difficult. Now all these jobs are gone and so the only option left is to start our own companies and build them up to something profitable? Not gonna work of we’re all doing it so there’s too much competition to make money. Never mind most of us aren’t aggressive egomaniacal assholes as seems to be required to be a “successful” businessman nowadays. It’s a fucking joke.
That’s exactly the argument for a livable wage for everyone
the american benefit can able ensure folk’s survive in the amercian social ?

It can be regional, but most I’ve seen are people with specific skill sets, such as:
Air Traffic Controllers (August 13, 2025):
Nursing (esp. in the North West; Sept 9, 2025):
Restaurant Workers (Sep 10, 2025):
Skilled Trades (Sep 10, 2025):
Teachers (July 15, 2025):
In my segment of the tech industry long hair and a beard show that you’re so important you don’t need to look professional.
I just wish the beard wasn’t so hot and itchy. I have the proper genetics to grow a massive beard. Like I can grow a full on Duck Dynasty or Sons of Anarchy level beard in 5 months. Shit is itchy and hot the whole time so I stay clean shaven to stubble.
Lemme translate:
The work-life-balance in our company is so terrible that our turnover is insane, so please, please do our dirty work and get scraps in return.
Yeah but the one most people remember its the live version sung by tesla.
Fatboy Slim for me
Don’t think I’ve every heard it. Guess I’ll have to give it a listen soon.
He did sample that bit about long haired freaky people in “Don’t Let The Man Get You Down”
