  1. Career and financial success is just dumb fucking luck isn't it? It's nothing to do with skills, intelligence, ability or "hard work". I wish I had figured this out 20 years ago. I'd have just become an accountant. It's all just fucking chaos really.

  6. I have been a coder/software engineer for over 20 years, I have never had a job that paid more than the equivalent of €70k before taxes a year. That one job was only for 6 months. I have had two jobs that paid over €45k. Listening to friends on €100k+ a year who do exactly the same job complain they "don't have any money" is really fucking draining. I'll be lucky to earn €7-€8k from work this year.

  18. I'm getting very sick of seeing friends with far less experience walking into jobs paying €100k+ while I'm maybe taking home €320 a week, half of that the dole, half from 30 hours a month of contract work. I'm getting increasingly angry at the world, because I cannot understand what I am doing wrong in life. It makes no sense. 😞

  23. #FollowTheMoney 90/n 🧵 UK unemployment rate hits five-year high of 5.2%

    In a way i am glad that at least rising #unemployment is slowly recognised and talked about in MSM - those of us who have lost jobs know anecdotally just how widespread #Redundancy now is.

    worrying nonetheless. Not least because #underemployment- many working in PT low grade jobs to make ends meet - is not picked up at all statistically.
