Ever heard of a college boasting a high hiring rate, and then striking a deal with the companies to fire them after a certain time to keep putting freshblood through the cycle?

2018-08-06 14:02:35 UTC  

Just so they can half-legitimately have the high hiring rate?

2018-08-06 14:02:38 UTC  

I have not, but i wouldn't be surprised

2018-08-06 14:02:43 UTC  

Well GOSH.

2018-08-06 14:02:51 UTC  

Wouldja look at that, something that isn't the college students fault.

2018-08-06 14:02:56 UTC  

Do you think there might be more?!

2018-08-06 14:02:57 UTC  

O:

2018-08-06 14:03:07 UTC  

thats why high-demand jobs are so nice, cuz you can just roll onto the next company 😉

2018-08-06 14:03:16 UTC  

Those change over time.

2018-08-06 14:03:23 UTC  

And you know what takes a lot of time?

2018-08-06 14:03:26 UTC  

A DEGREE.

2018-08-06 14:03:34 UTC  

I should know, i have one in IT 😉

2018-08-06 14:03:36 UTC  

What may be in demand right now, may not in a few years.

2018-08-06 14:03:46 UTC  

This didn't waver so rapidly in the past.

2018-08-06 14:03:49 UTC  

It does now.

2018-08-06 14:04:04 UTC  

It makes people fucking nervous.

2018-08-06 14:04:18 UTC  

Nervous people are easy to sell snake oil.

2018-08-06 14:04:22 UTC  

A cure for all that ails ya

2018-08-06 14:04:42 UTC  

I bet this next response will suck.

2018-08-06 14:04:44 UTC  

fair point,

Not a high demand job

A job for high productivity to society

2018-08-06 14:05:01 UTC  

which incidently is also high demand 😄

2018-08-06 14:05:02 UTC  

Well then.

2018-08-06 14:05:11 UTC  

There aren't many jobs in high demand.

2018-08-06 14:05:18 UTC  

oh yes there are

2018-08-06 14:05:22 UTC  

When people make arguments that automation will open new fields: No it won't.

2018-08-06 14:05:24 UTC  

Maybe to engineers.

2018-08-06 14:05:27 UTC  

if they weren't, the west wouldn't be importing them en masse

2018-08-06 14:05:35 UTC  

But engineering is so tough, only a fraction of the population can be them.

2018-08-06 14:05:41 UTC  

So who are we kidding.

2018-08-06 14:06:08 UTC  

thats why there are levels of engineering

You don't have to build rocket-ships

2018-08-06 14:06:10 UTC  

I think you misunderstood what I just said.

2018-08-06 14:06:16 UTC  

Engineering is not that hard

2018-08-06 14:06:24 UTC  

Yes it is.

2018-08-06 14:06:37 UTC  

Engineering as a study is hard

Engineering as a trade, is not

2018-08-06 14:06:54 UTC  

Nah. I don't think I'm that smart and I have an engineering degree

So fixing robots will be simple, will it

2018-08-06 14:07:36 UTC  

And it will employ everyone.

2018-08-06 14:07:37 UTC  

But I will agree that not everyone can do it
