>>8932889The wojak tag should be backwards dummy
>>8932878BASED
>>8932787because of labor arbitrage
>>8932916>implying he isnt named kajow dumbass.
>>8932787>spend half your life working for a PhD>all you can find is a call center job>end it allI don't really blame him tbqhwy. Boomers born in the '40's could buy their own house with a couple years work on minimum wage, meanwhile millenials spend years for a PhD and can't even afford a fucking meal.
>>8932988i'm sure the whole wasnt him not having a god tier job, he probably lacked social support/gf/money etc...
>>8932912>14 fucking dollars an hourWhat the fuck? Where I live it's minimum euro wage at around 8.60-ish euros per hour. Same goes for construction workers, welders, all 'pleb' jobs really.
>>8932988That's why I became a drug dealer after my Master. Less risk, steady income, no entitled boomer faggot boss and I can sell boomers poisoned blow that kills them faster
>>8933067>8.6 minimum wageYou lucky bastard, minimum wage here around doesn't exist. I have customers who work for 6€/hour and have to compete with gypsies who offer their time for 4€/h. EU needs to be axed once and for all
>>8933067The minimum wage in burgerland is typically ~$8.
>>8932948Kajow in reverse writing?
Schools no longer guarantees anything, that was 70's. Maybe he was lied like universities do in USA about salaries and jobs. However currently if somebody enters uni they can blame only themselves.
>>8932787And this was 5 years ago too. It's only worse now, but there's a lot of factors being left out of this. Did he come from a rich/poor family? Did he have student debt? How long had he been looking for work? I had an Accounting and Finance degree but there were no fucking jobs either. So I decided to teach myself coding and I got a really good coding job without a CS degree just because I knew somebody. It's all about networking now.
Basically boomers were born right after a massive herd-thinning (WW2) which means any retard could make it because their world was one of ridiculous abundance. Meanwhile the newer generations haven't had a good war since basically, well, WW2 and they literally live in the overcrowded rat city experiment where occupants split down the lines of aggressive retards and passive metrosexuals (males) and horrid mothers who would rather go around antagonizing everyone and getting fucked than take care of their offspring.Basically, le PhD etc self-improvement credential hoarding shit makes you one of the metrosexuals faggot rats who gets shit on, you have to be one of the aggressive retards who fucks or kills everyone they come across to make it.Also fuck boomers.
>>8932787Damn that's actually really depressing
>>8933200Accounting and coding are most hiring outside of health care
>>89331508 dollars is plenty to get by on if you know how to save your money. You could even work part-time and as long as you pay your rent and utilities, you're set.
Yeah, fuck school. I'm going to keep gambling.
>>8933248> you're set. Jesus Fucking H Christ.
>get a phd in physics>be incapable of learning skills necessary for a satisfactory jobdid he have some odd form of autism?
>>8933216Yeah if you're an Asian on meth and adderol. I applied to 450 jobs just to find a shitty accounting job in what was basically a sweatshop. I cracked after about 8 months and left. Then taught myself to code and spend all of my savings on a coding academy. But I only got what I have now because of my connection. Would've been totally fucked otherwise.
>>8933200What sort of resources did you use to self learn? I'm interested in learning how to code but I don't really know where to start. Any good books to recommend?
>>8933292I went online and looked at what skills people hiring in the tech field wanted the most. Things like Java, Angular JS, Python, C#, C++ etc and bought a big stack of books. Just months of sitting down studying and practicing. But a coding academy helps too because really good ones simulate what it's like to be in an actual workplace, work in teams, and to be on the spot.

>>8933248Do the math anon, 8 dollars an hour, 40 hours per week. Then take into account phone bill, electricity, rent, gas, water, car insurance, repairs, health insurance, groceries, clothing etc. How are you gonna make it anywhere in life with even $14 an hour? Short answer: you don't, you're always working-poor and will never be able to retire or really do much of anything.
>>8932787>grind hard as fuck for years on end to finish a PhD>entitledop you seem like a right faggot
>>8933357>"Boo hoo. I'm sad that someone gave me a job and lungs to breath!"That's how you sound right now
>>8933346>Do the math anon>Doesn't do the math himself Dumb fuck. Learn some math.
>>8933327Any books in particular that you found helped?
>>8933346I didn't include cable or wifi if we're pretending it's included in the rent either.
>>8933292You dumb fucking rat didnt you read all that shit was useless and if it wasnt for his buttbuddy he‘d be the next one on the blockJust save youself some frustration and kys already if you arent on track to making it yet
>>8933403I said you do the math retard, learn how to read. You said it's possible, then do the fucking math and prove it.
>Reading UniversityI mean, it's better than community college I guess but Im guessing he didnt work hard enough to find a job with respect to where he graduated.
>phd at 31No wonder he kysed himself desu. That's like living with your parents at 22.
>>8932787F
>>893342314 bucks an hour is 28K a year, 8 bucks is 16K. The cost of rent and utilities and food is heavily based on cost of living -- what states do you folks live in?
>>8933099kys degenerate faggot
>>8933476What? Thats about average for phds. Not everyone goes straight from undergrad to grad school. I'll probably get mine at ~32 b/c I worked a bit and changed my degree when I was younger. All the professors I worked with got their phd 30+
>>8932787that could be any of us
>>8932787Because we’re the fucking future in every way. We will solve all the world issues that there are because of dumb ass boomers
>>8933525yeah--a lot of people get their Phd's around 29 so like 31 isn't unthinkable. I'm wondering if he was working a better job before the phd lol
>>8933519what's the issue. If I don't offer it, Niggers and Chinks will. The demand remains, and mixing some blood thinner into boomer blow helps to regulate the population growth
>>8933532not me, I didnt fall for the STEM meme, went ACCT going for my CPA locked in a FT job 2 years before a start date at a B4 firm
>>8933401(You)
>>8933636is STEM a meme in the US? got civils degree in the UK, no problem finding a job here.
CS degree here, got an internship in my second year and employed by the same company before I even graduated.
>>8932787Should have been born a woman or minority if he wanted a job.
Inflation in higher education.
>>8932842This. Enjoy your 20 million illegal immigrants driving down wages and raising taxes.
>>8933413Never said I was a fag you fag.
>>8932787You ever worked in a call center?
>>8933476Why would you not live with your parents at 22? It's not the 50's anymore. I sure as hell won't take some shit job and share a flat with 4 messy and noisy normies just to tell people that I don't live with my parents anymore
>>8932787Guess you could say he was studying the effects of gravity more closely
>>8932988I got A*A*A* on my alevels and a first in Physics BA from an top 5 uni in Britain. I gave up every single hobby I had, I have 1 friend and am still a virgin, and I've been living purely off a food replacer for the last 2 years, all just so I can FAIL at succesfully selling my life to a company in exchange for a living. I'm considering killing myself. I feel as if I've already wasted every year of my life after 14 and I don't see a way out of this spiritual blackhole
>PhD in physics>None of the jobs I want>$14 startingI almost feel jealous of you wagecucks.
PhD in physics and uses gravity to kill himself. Well, at least he had a sense of humour about it all.That aside, it's a sign of the times when a PhD graduate in physics ends up working in a soul-crushing job alongside a bunch of mongoloid 16 year olds.
Literally how. Fucking how. The best he could get was a fucking call center? I swear education != intelligence.
>>8934324>>/fitYou're welcome.
>>8934583either bad grades and/or bad school
>>8934293bls feel at least bad for a second.he should however just bought some btc and he would be rich today and inventing time travel or something, but this is just sad
>>8934646>ust bought some btc and he would be rich todayI think we all could say the same thing a million times over.
Wonderful tactic. Take one highly unusual example and pretend it negates all the other instances of millennial laziness, stupidity, etc.
I earn $18 a day, fuck me.>mfw mininum wage is twice as small
>>8933135You lucky cunt. Minimum wage in my country is 3€. Buying an iPhone is a matter of saving for half a year. At least property is kinda cheap.
>>8934834Are you in prison?
>>8934852Yeah. Russia is like prison, right.
>>8934845Where is that?
>>8933532speak for yourself. i make 90k/year in a fortune 50 and barely work all day
>>8934861Czech republic. Funnily germany right next to us has like 3x the average wage.
>>8933099You’re an angel. Bless you.
>>8932912guys, you need to stop focusing entirely on boomers and remember generation x. These fuckers are the spawn of hippies and hold the same irresponsible and selfish ideology.Hell, even boomers that rejected the hippy bullshit and are actually decent, their generation x children, on the other hand, behave exactly like boomers.Boomers are dying out, generation x is the real threat.
>>8934886We're all the same characterwise 2bh, the boomers just had a blown out world to ride on for a while.
>>8934863Same here -- fortune 20 I think though. but exactly the same details haha
Everyone here is obsessed with boomers and how things aren't as easy as they used to be, but this is incredibly short-sighted. You might consider WW2 to be the genesis of existence, but human history actually extends far before that. We all live like kings.
>>8933206fucking nailed it.
>>8934965Agree-- boomers were just very lucky
>>8934965Yeah, sure we all love like Kings like King Solomon who had hundreds of wives, while the average biztard viewing this post gets to jack off to his oneitis once a day
>>8935092Yeah, but you bathe in drinking water.
>>8934908Can't say I agree with that.
>>8935103Well, the first part.
>>8934324Lol retard I got a 35k job with C's in college. Maybe you're just a sperg with a shit CV LOL
>>8935092700 wives and 300 concubines and it still won't make you happy
>>8932787please be trolling u retarded faggot, a physics phd is astoundingly difficult to achieve
>>8934965there is something unnerving about showing up just in time to watch everything die a slow death. what you say only proves how much of civilization died off after the war. there are many things that were abandoned throughout the 20th century and they were in favor of the world we have today where generations are brainwashed out of the cradle and towards self-destructionim not even mad at the boomers. sure, some of them were spoiled or annoying. they were guinea pigs in their own right - subjects like lab rats to the elite.
>>8934646The sad thing is, however bad people think the job market is at the moment, things are going to get INFINITELY worseThe next crash will make 1929 pale into insignificance... Cucks like that would have been grateful for their minimum wage call centre jobBut that aside, people are such pussies nowadays! I don't have the best job in the world but I at least appreciate I have it better than my grandparents, they were working down a mine 18 hours a day aged 14
>>8933206Agreed ladBoomers do not fucking understand that every job posting that is decently paid will be spammed by pajeets and chinksIt's hard as fuck
>REEEEE other people had it easier than me im not even going to try>Meanwhile tons of people in our generation are getting ahead because theyre not a whining, crying little faggot soyboys blaming other people and their perceived luck for their own failure Go out, work hard and hustle at something instead of being such pathetic cucks. In Australia literally every single person below the age of 30 says owning house is impossible because boomers fucked the market. None of them save, none of them bother because its too hard. Meanwhile i owned 2 investment properties and my own house by my 24th birthday. Stay poor fags
>>8933206>a massive herd-thinning (WW2)lmao what, so wrong. I just looked it up and American ww2 deaths were about 417,000 out of a population of 140 million
>>8935256what's your job/business?
>>8935103Watching people my age I see little indication of selfishness or irresponsibility tapering off, or any real moral progress unless you count love of gays and facebook environmentalism/protesting. When they're sitting at the power levers they'll be looking out for #1 all the same.
>>8935243i think the problem is that the guy invested so much in physics, and if he got a job at call centre he would never ever get a job in physics because 0 experience
>>8935256My boomer parents fucked up so hard with the IRS that I ended up giving them my savings at 24/25 to avoid them having to serve jail time.Good for you though.
>>8932912>>8932787>physicsHe could've gotten a liberal arts bachelors, entered law school and spend his days googling shit for clientsNot my fault some people make meme life decisions
>>8935269Whiny millennial isn't so much the average Joe who got shorted in life like in OP than it is these fucks who think they can blame a lack of world wars and rose tinted views of history on their failures.
>>8935318>The advancement of human knowledge is rewarded less than googling shit for some kikePeople like you are the reason that Earth will be the grave of humanity.
>>8935373Hey, I don't get to choose what society deems valuable and too small to make any sort of difference. Just saying that's how it be on this bitch of an earth
>>8935307Meh, this one was clearly metnally ill. People dont commit suicide for being a call center ape. Just a selling news story. But the mentality is the same you see all over millenals think schools will get them far in todays world, but for majority it wont, living expenses, taxes and job qualities are poor for most even with phd. This guy wouldnt have done too well in any job. Work hard not smart does not work
>>8932787why didn't he just become a plumber lmao
>>8935315Your choice, their mistake. I moved away from home at 17 because my family are retarded and going nowhere in life. You didnt have to do that but im sure holding on to it as an excuse for why you arent succeeding will get you far. >>8935295Work as a construction manager/property developer for a big residential apartment builder in australia. More money than the engineers and architects working for me and its way easier to get into. Also use the data the company acquires from market research firms as to which area they are investing in to buy my own places, its a great profession.
>>8934583Because his PHD made him overqualified for everything else
Was his PHD any good? If he left University at 31 never having had a proper job, and no longer receiving money for his research I'm not too surprised he couldn't find a good job easily.He could have just been a teacher/lecturers though.
>>8935400this. if everyone is getting degrees, the supply of them goes way up and the demand stays the same/goes down because of companies hiring pajeets from india to take up spots citizens would get. so wages get driven down and job opportunities shrink.
>>8935463The UK is a collapsing nation, there is no prosperity hereThis idiot should have took his PHD and left somewhere
>>8935256>just hustle, bro!
>>8935373STEM people need to stop being elitist cunts toward business majors. After a few generations there egos will heal and they'll stop punishing us.
I wonder if he even liked what he studied. 12 years in higher education studying some bullshit then you cant even get a job using the info but if you really found it interesting, it seems like youd spend your free time still studying/research/reading and looking for work where you can. a lot of people get a shitty job and first and then transition to a better one.
>>8935463I think a better choice (for anyone doing physics rn) would be to get a masters, do well, take some internships, then take and complete the patent bar (doesnt require law school). Then you'll be a patent agent. I know a guy who did this exact thing and made ~500k a year.
>>8935445So you turned on your relations and sucked on HAM till you forgot all your problems. Not bad. A bit degenerate but money's money.
>14usd per hourHoly shit i would KILL for that job in my 3rd world country that's a wage for educated middle upper class.
>>8935621You would not be living well on that money here unless you lived in a car
Literally fell for the STEM meme
>>8935553No i took charge of my own life, made opportunities out of what i could and didnt blame everything that went wrong on other people. Something no one in this thread seems to have been able to do. Case in point:>>8935497
>>8935694>just STEM bro it worked for me
>>8935553Is HAM hot asian micropenis?
>>8933099>sell boomers poised blowMy man>>8933270>get a job working as an accountant for a huge fund>contract says 37 hours a week>2nd week doing >>89352562 houses in woop woop dont count for fuck cunt. Dont pretend like its all hard work when property pirces in sydney have gone 400% in the last 10 years. Bank + boomers + the gov fuck everything up for young people. Boomer bought a house for 20K in 1995 now house is 800K. Boomer can take out a loan for 780K and buy more houses. Working hard isnt the solution you wombat brain shitcunt. Fuck ya T - someone who has an investment property in Sydney
>>8935445I have succeeded, in crypto for quite a while and a software engineer besides.I guess I could have let my mother go to jail. Kind of have to live with myself though.

>>8932787PhDThe worst mistake of my life. This shit will haunt me forever in missed gains.
>>8934965>We all live like kingsBetter yet. No kings from these parts even got to see an avocado in their lifetime. And I can go to the supermarket and buy a whole bag for $3. Summer, winter it doesnt matter. I can buy avocados any time of the year. What a time to be alive.
>>8936002gl buying a house, bitch avocado
>>8935518It's not really just STEM in general, it's this dumb liberal zeitgeist that institutions and people are allowed to be totally infallible. Look at how long term capital management collapsed, people bought the hype of some Nobel prize winner and a brainiac A team who fucked up on reading interest rates and just about brought everyone down with them.
>>8934930Same here -- fortune 10 I think though. but exactly the same details haha
>>8935768Look, I'm doing fine. I have a CompSci degree and a ~90k/year job. I also have a small (but growing!) business making ~15k a year. I have ~50k saved up in fiat and another ~20k in crypto. BUT when my dad was my age he had 2 cars, a house, a vacation property, and he did all of this with 'just' a high school diploma. The fact is shit used to be A LOT easier, and now it's A LOT harder. Yes, hard working smart people are still going to make it but shit still sucks. So, should we just sit here and laugh as it gets worse? I'll be fine. The next generation is royally FUCKED.
>>8936016>houseThe Pharaohs of Egypt couldn't even dream of how the top dogs of today live, let alone the peasants

>>8936058>my dad had it easier He just wasnt a pussy. You have plelnty of money to do what you want and its all thanks to your dad.
>>893606360 years ago it was WAY easier for people to make it, or even just to live well. It's way harder now. Why does a ruler from 5,000 years ago matter? Does that mean we should all be happy if we're not starving to death? Sorry, but I want more, and I'm working hard to get it. >>8936102hahaha
>>8933177>Maybe he was lied like universities do in USA about salaries and jobs.This. Attending university was the big thing to do back in 2010. I did it, regretted it, and just finished paying off my loans. And they have the nerve to send me advertisements for their certificate programs after spurning me when I went to them for internship and career help. Fuck'em with a sewage dipped dildo wrapped in barbed wire.
>>8936058It's harder by design. AI (+robotics) combined with exponential increases of compute power will eventually remove all resource constraints.Listen to voldemort explain it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Y7PLaxXUrs
>>8935256>borrow so much from the bank you can only afford to pay off the interest each year>buy house >use equity in house you HAVEN'T PAID OFF to get ANOTHER enormous loan you literally cannot pay off and buy another house>repeat X times>"yeah i own X investment properties lol, other millenials are fucking pathetic lol, muh avocado toast"Fuck you, you stupid cunt. You are going to get fucking wiped out the instant interest rates rise or housing prices drop, and that's been overdue in Australia for a decade. Fuck, I'm young and own a house (which i have paid off!) but i could only do that because i make a lot more than the average young person and bought in a shitty area.To any non-ausfags: do not listen to these "lmao just hustle" faggots. Australia has lots of these idiots who are in so much unaffordable debt that even a slight downturn is guaranteed to destroy them.
Every time I think about how tedious my $250k/yr entry-level* Manhattan software engineer job is, and how much I fucking hate going to work, and how much I hate coming home drained instead of having time to be an idle rich person and NEET it up or make my own company, I see something like this thread to remind me I could be even more bored by my job and get paid far less. Thanks, biz.*- I been here four years. Started with $170k/yr but got small raises + price of company stock has more than doubled, and I had a year and a half of experience, else I might have started around $140-150k, so not really entry-level but still technically entry-level since I've never been promoted, just got lucky with stock price shooting up.
>>8934269During an interview with an employment agency they asked me which jobs I would refuse. I listed cleaning and call center work. I don't look down on cleaners because it's absolutlely vital to society but being a callcenter worker is degrading and demoralising on a deeper level. You get contemtpt for every direction.
>>8936201You can likely make more consulting and working on your own company. I did but it takes a while and a lot of work. Not tedious though and there is no ceiling.
>>8936127The threat of starvation will never leave. You're misguided if you think post-scarcity is possible in any way.But you're also asking for an age with radically different material conditions, less development of infrastructure, and also less developed economies; it was arguably cheaper to train a human to work 50 years ago than it is today. You can't stop this march of progress.
>>8936152The one union action I support is the striking teachers in OK, KY, etc. Advancements in technology mean we should be keeping children in training longer and for more intensive programs than ever before and having less of them. More efficient workers, less bodies at the problem.
>>8936269You are misunderstanding the impact of exponential increases in compute. Computers of tomorrow likely won't look like today's computers and will have many more features.
>>8932988Fuck off you fucking liar, your entire generation is full of excuses.
>>8936269>You're misguided if you think post-scarcity is possible in any wayI never said that, how did you get that from my post? If anything it's going in the opposite direction - super rich with automated palaces and super poor eating literal garbage. >You can't stop this march of progressWe could progress just as fast, perhaps faster, without such massive income inequality. Don't misunderstand, I know we won't, it won't happen, I'm saying we could.
>>8936314... except all of the successful 30yos. Yeah, a lot of my generation are lazy, but not all of us. But that's not even the point. The lazy 50-60 year olds all own houses and did fine. The point is the successful 30 year olds would be MORE successful. The point is life is harder, more stressful, and generally less pleasant. Now's where you misunderstand and think I'm making excuses lol
>>8936251That being said I fucking love positive and professional service desk workers. I always try to expect the best and they get praise when it works out. I just wouldnt't want to be in their shoes. Telemarketers can go fuck themselves but that's diyin breed.
>>8934886None of this would have happened had we not been thoroughly jewed out.
>>8936254He likely would but some people prefer a regular salary. Also, employers prefer these people too as they're a lot less likely to hand in their notice to go it alone.
>>8935463>teacher/lecturersBeginner lecturers earn less than call center fags, adjunct professors in the US only get 3-4000 usd per semester.
>>8933636are you planning on doing internal accounting or auditing?I dated a girl who was an internal auditor and she said basically every girl goes into auditing while the smart ones (men) all go into internal, cause that's where the money is.

>>8936362If you live in the United States and make an average income you a part of the top 1% of the planet by income alone, don't you think Indians and Chinks who live and work in sweatshops for pennies to the dollar you make would be happy to be in your situation? Shit, I'm only 20 making 11k a year and I have almost every material possession I want, without having my parents paying for everything I own. The only thing I'm missing is a cheap car and a single bedroom apartment that I plan to shoot for after I finish college. Living in one of the most technologically advanced civilizations on Earth should be more than enough to make you feel lucky to be alive today. So what if you can't buy a cheap asbestos ridden house in 2018? You don't need that much space anyway. Women are worthless and the idea of raising a decent family is a pipe dream at best nowadays. Just live for yourself and the family who actually give a damn about you, save your money and aspire to get a promotion or two at work if you are that desperate to fill some unseen void in your life with money.

>>8932787>>8932912>Millennials>Not entitledPick one. Millennials are entitled (and stupid) because so many of them pick their jobs with no regard for basic offer and demand. You've got literally every kid going to university for a degree they chose based on stupid reasoning like "I'm smart enough for it", "it's prestigious" and "it's what I'd like to do".Based boomers on the other hand didn't finish high school, but many of them looked for low-rank jobs in whatever field was hiring the most (aka where the demand was) and as such had opportunity for growth. If you got into university right out of school in a field that wasn't hiring it's your own damn fault and you can use your physics phd to calculate your own acceleration as you throw yourself out of the call centre building without disregarding air resistance.

>>8937362>boomers on the other hand didn't finish high school, but many of them looked for low-rank jobs in whatever field was hiring the most (aka where the demand was) and as such had opportunity for growth. Related to this is something that I've seen personally was that younger generations refuse to look outside their own cities. My grandparents moved across the entire fucking country to find jobs on the coast in order to raise their families, and my parents ended up doing the same thing in reverse when insurance companies started HQing in the midwest. My generation is full of retards who go to their own little state schools and refuse to leave their tiny slice of the world in order to find work, and i know several STEMcucks who are working at local convenience marts because of it despite there being plenty of demand in other parts of the country.
>>8932787The absolute state of the generation that was told a million times about how much """""potential""""" they have.I can't tell you how many retarded faggots my age (mid 20s) think theyre gonna work at Blizzard or some shit one day. How many of them swear up and down their indie gaming platform will take off. How many of them have Kickstartters for their retarded board games that flop. How many of them think they'll be able to stream YouTube videos for a living, or make a viable income from playing LoL on Twitch. Then, when they inevitably fail, they blame boomers (the same boomers that let them live in their house). Passive consumption ruined millennials. A whole generation with ambitions centered around making money from ad revenue. Meanwhile, plumbers, builders, and other makers get fucking jobs and create businesses while blue haired cunts whine about being poor but somehow have enough for a new bag of weed every week lmfao.Millennials are the niggers of generations
>>8942829This is also a great point. Millennials have no clue how to move then wonder why their landlord keeps spiking their rent lmfao. But everyone stays on the coast, because "hurrrr Missouri? Arkansas? Indiana? That's flyover country", failing to realize they're somehow making a point of pride out of living in a micro studio paying 1400/mo I can't wait to leave socal
>>8932787>mfw if we have another bullrun I will go back and get my PhD and probably be a graduate with a physics PhD and maybe no job, but won't kill myself due to being able to live off passive income

There are so few jobs in the field that only the elite have a chance. This isn't just for academia too, good tech companies and wall street only want the elite.
>>8936063yes an no.we have a lot of mod cons, but a mentally hemmed in relative to what we can do and what we are shown vs what we can have. Discontent and dislocation may be a lot higher now
Millenials are entitled because of the way they were brought up - Their parents are mostly the product of 'first wave teenagers', where children were given independence, which leads to a social shift.Second generation were raised by those in the social shift, thus having a very different upbringing to many. They're essentially the 'experimental' generation relative to human history. We're the product off of them.The education system is partly to blame, and has directly led to the PC system we have now - Competition is seen as a negative, so everyone is rewarded. People are thus conditioned (in general) to expect rewards for not beating competition, for not besting themselves.So you graduate from a sub-par uni expecting a job.. >Don't get job. >Kills selfHow about finding out what skills you didn't gain in your time at uni, or what skills are recently in demand and make yourself irreplaceable? You know, beat the competition for the job.It's not in the majority of this generations psyche though, competition is a negative, and thus competing isn't a factor. Without competition, why would you spend hours studying and learning skills when you can get instant gratification every other direction you look.It's not their fault, it's the society their parents and grandparents constructed post-ww2.
>>8942793No
>>8939886Iron curtain still active. Thanks a lot EU. At least our politicans are rich from your funding. t.Hungary
>>8943104the problem is that in physics any university outside the top ~10 worldwide is sub-par in the job market for physics phds. maybe a few hundred people are actually hireable.
honestly that this guy did a PHD and killed himself because he wound up in a call centre is entirely down to himanyone who can actually do a PHD shouldnt be so fucking stupid
>>8937816>implying there are niggers on this board
>>8943155>killed himself because he wound up in a call centre is entirely down to himit happensnobody wants to know but sometimes life eats you up and shits you out in horrible ironic fashion. he felt so bad he jumps off something you should appreciate his situation nigger.
>>8935768wow how scared are you about crash? australias housing market looks far from healthy
>>8943143Of course.Tens of thousands of people study physics in UK every year, and there's very few directly related jobs. However having a Stem degree opens a huge amount of doors with the right skills.I.E Investment banking - General skillsetPublic relations - Communication skills primarilySoftware dev - Relevent coding languages (having physics knowledge can make you top tier regardless of uni)Fuck it, you can even do a law conversion course.The point is there are options. I'd imagine there's a lot more to the story than what is reported however. What would be the worst case scenario if you literally couldn't find a single job? How about doing another masters, or going back to uni and studying another subject which might aid your current knowledge, i.e stat science, maths, engineering...Or you could kill yourself i guess. Why spend another 1-3 years paying to be educated when you can end it all now..
>>8943346no I know that, the UK is also a shithole, but in the US at least you are STILL going to have a hard time getting a job placement outside of a top 10-15 world university that will be worth the 4 years of salary you sacrificed. Wall Street, tech companies etc. only want elite pedigree. they won't look at you if your degree isn't from an elite school.
>>8943583Joke is on you.It is all about social connections and a healthy dose of nepotism.All of whom the lower class lacks
>>8943649you can still get into a good school in the US if you aren't from the upper class. MIT, Caltech, Berkeley (for instance) do not care about what class you are.
>>8933206So basically what you're saying is we need another ethnic cleansing.I'm down.
Lotta kids blaming mom and dad. Like always. You insufferable losers need to blame everything but yourself. If it ain't boomers it's blacks, Muslims, Russians, Chinese etc etc. Grow the fuck up and take responsibility for your own fuck up.
>>8943790>If it ain't boomers it's blacks, Muslims, Russians, Chinese etc etc. Grow the fuck up and take responsibility for your own fuck up.In the US at least a great deal of government dysfunction is unironically related to accommodating blacks though. One such example is the degree inflation. As it turns out, America banned employers from IQ testing prospective employees because blacks were scoring too low. This requires employers to use a proxy IQ test instead, as in, a college degree.
>>8943837Congrats, you did it again. Blame some entire group. Again.Do you underage faggots not understand that in long peacetime, work competition grow? People need to be better, because the company needs better workers. Jobs turned technical and need skilled educated workers. This drivel about iq tests being replaced by actual education is just another blame game for fucking up your life.
>>8933819Any tips anon?I'm in 2nd year and just got shot down on another internship application. I'm on a masters so next year is my last chance for an internship
>>8943886I have a degree from a good university and earn a good salary though? Objectively speaking degree inflation is not efficient since most jobs that require a college degree could be done without one. This necessitates a growth in the number of colleges, which requires more tax dollars to be spent, and also more money to go to subsidizing loans for blacks so that they can go to college at an acceptable rate. A lot of my tax money goes to caring for blacks.
>>8943906Even more goes to your military but that's okay. Bombing everyone is the one thing your shithole is good at, with the blessing of your people.
>>8943906God damn you're actually obsessed with the BBC. Guessing you're a virgin as well.
>>8943926Coincidentally the military is also a jobs program for low IQ people.>>8943939Forgive me for not liking to pay 40%+ in tax each year mostly for the sake of caring for the brown masses and bombing hapless arabs.
