Online applications suck. Normal applications can suck as well, especially if you have some asshole who makes it sound like he can't wait to hire you, only to crush your hopes later. I think I might've gone crazy if I had to do that stuff for 1-2 more months.

In terms of health issues, I once got a sunburn on my way back from university (no idea how that happened; I was barely in direct sunlight) that caused me to feel like a vampire for the rest of summer.
I also had what might've been a particularly nasty flu or something. It certainly made me regret not going to the doctors ASAP because the night before it all went away made me almost feel like I was LITERALLY dying.

Reminds me of that place that was hiring a typist who only had to type 40 WPM and basically copy down everything a politician dictated to them every day for 8 hours along with some light filing.

Bastards wanted a Bachelor's degree to do it.

I type 40 WPM in my sleep with one finger and I probably have a more advanced filing system for my porn stash than these dudes have for their important crap. Don't tell me I have to go to college to listen to some old prune tell me what to type in a word document.
Even a bachelor's is toilet paper in today's job market if you don't have five years current experience in a specific-ass field that they want. They basically want some dude who is already doing that job and has been for the last five years to come work for them... For less money. Then they wonder why it's so hard to find "qualified" candidates.

Any shitposter on DHI can type 40wpm with high accuracy. But what I'd expect to see for a typist "entry level" position today would be something like this:

-bachelors required in specialized field related to typing, medical or legal
-PHD preferred, or master's degree
-five years experience required in previous typing-for-peanuts field
-must send longass list of references

Even if you have all those things, they'll probably bin your application anyway because they get 400 applicants a day and don't give a fuck. Maybe they'll bin you for being a fucking white male, who knows. Depends what city you live in.

Is there some kind of federal office or something that helps people that are unemployed? We have that in Norway (although, it seems to just be for show, I never hear anyone that gets a job that they got it through those people)

I hate fucking getting old and having to shave my head regularly at all. Balding at 32 after years of nice full locks was demoralizing, then again I could be FilmBald.... at least I work out. Just god damn.

I feel slightly better.
I feel you, fam. I've been bold lots of times, but when I had hair, it was fucking glorious. I don't consider myself very handsome, but that hair raised me a couple of points.

Now I have an alt-right Nazi haircut (shaved on the sides), because for some reason (guessing all the medication, and some skinproblems) my hair doesn't really grow anymore.
My dad knows a guy who uses a new type of hair cream thing, that seems to work a bit, so I started that yesterday. I'm not even 28 xD

But I see bold guys with pretty girlfriends all the time, so I guess we still have a shot!

Started working out a bit myself (upper body, since I can barely walk and my back has literally no muscles). I'm soon like Joe in Family Guy, except I'm still kinda chubby. Hard to lose weight when you just sit around doing jack shit.

I've seen these kinds of applications for trainee jobs.

And huh, I guess there's still hope for Germany after all. Our employers are less likely to give you a job if your name sounds too foreign.

We have something like that in Germany, but it's also mostly for show. They also like putting you on programs that won't really teach you anything new unless you really sucked at school, just so they can temporarily remove you from the unemployment statistics.

I hate how true this is. I've been seeing housekeeper job listings that ask for only applicants with 2+ years housekeeping experience. I then go to the place and it's usually some relatively dumpy motel.

Don't even get me started on basic construction jobs asking for people with construction experience. At least that can be easily dangerous but how much experience do you really need to paint lines on the road that you couldn't be taught in an afternoon or less?

Commission sales positions around here are also notorious for requiring previous experience and yet the only way to get said experience is to move out of town or know a guy.

You apparently also need janitorial experience and lots of references to mop the floors of schools after hours around here, even. I just don't get it.

There's a place called "smuckers" which basically sells like jelly's and jams and shit that requires a bachelor's degree to answer the phones.

No, I'm not kidding.

I used to work for uber at home with ticket support, was the literal best job I ever had because they didn't track shit, I used to take naps and then just do a few tickets before I left and got to work that for 6 months, eventually the job got out sourced and we all got laid off. It also looks good on a resume, and good luck trying to call them to ask if I worked there or not.

I can't even count how many times I was competing with 30 other people for 1 position, when they honestly probably knew who they were going to hire at the beginning and just wasting my fucking time.

Everytime I need people I have them put the job into their system. Then they also dig around in their unemployed list to seek out suitable people, send me that list and contact those people. You know how many of those ever applied? Zero. Out of almost a hundred now over the years. Not a single one.
And if you think nobody could possibly too dumb to work in a supermarket, you're, sadly, super mistaken. There are some real knuckleheads running around.
Of the young men I've had working here only two I'd describe as actually competent. Most are dumb or beyond lazy. Mostly legit too dumb, though.

Don't worry, I'm barely surprised anymore to see how dumb people can be. It's fascinating to see what creatures are allowed to leave school.

School is useless nowadays. Only course you get is "How to AntiFa 101". ie "How to be a massive faggot 101"

Our schools aren't that infested (yet). Unless something really changed since I graduated.

Our probems largely revolve around schools - in an attempt to leave nobody behind - dumb down everything to the lowest common denominator. I think my favorite is how they dumbed down cursive writing into "block letters, but you connect them together after the fact". All because kids have become too retarded to write.
