    How does any of that have anything to do with my comment?

    Willpower doesn’t get you anywhere when corporations have replaced so many jobs with robots, computers and AI, or require 5 to 8 years experience for an ‘entry level’ job.

    Eat the rich.

      Willpower will get you far. There was already industrial revolution in the past and thousands of people lost their livings duento bwing replaced by machines. Those who had willpower managed to pull through and even change quaifications and become successful e.g. in service industry. Those who give up before they even try are deem to doom

        Have you not seen the very true meme about a job listing that requires 5 years experience with a particular programming language, when the author of the language himself called them out and said the language he created was only 2 years old?

        Even with the strongest willpower, 5 years experience simply isn’t possible. And there are many other examples out there of the same sort of thing, where job listings are posted with prerequisites that are simply impossible to meet.

        It’s bullshit I tellz ya.

        Also, what even is an ‘entry level’ job if it requires years of prior experience? That’s a literal catch-22, if it’s impossible to set your foot in the door in the first place, how’s one to gain any experience?

          Never seen Junior position to require 22 years of exp. Doesn’t make sense for companies to look for impossible, they would simply not look for anyone. And if they would look for 22 yrs of exp that would be senior because peeps carriers are about that long in some cases.
