      Right? Like go take that shit to twitter—plenty of maga psychos will eat it up.

      EDIT: OP seems to be a trumper who reposts Babylon Bee articles. This dude is MAGA or MAGA adjacent, not worth your time. Block and keep scrolling :)

    “You’re certainly qualified for this job and we’d love to have you. Welcome aboard!”

    Some time later:

    “Sorry, we can’t afford to pay our employees to continue doing their jobs so we’re going to have to let you go”

    This has happened twice to me within the past year.

      Meanwhile, the company has raked in record profits year after year, but nothing below C-suite and shareholder has seen a dime of it.

        For one of those companies, that was probably true. They had been increasingly profitable for all ~15 years they had been open, most of the white-collar employees were vocally pro-Trump, and then there was chitchat over how tariffs are making it difficult to produce our goods (we had used aluminum and a lot of other imported materials), and I doubt half of them ever put two and two together.

    Those that are unemployed and looking for work absolutely have the right to complain about the economy with the rest of us.
