People always say this shit, but if you wanted to work as a web developer for minimum wage the option doesn't exist. Companies just assume you want to charge $69 gorillion.
Thankfully I'm employed and also not a web developer.

Getting a US job is only worth it if you can work remote in a low-cost-of-living state, OR you work at a FAGMAN. If you're European, then there is too much to trade off in getting a US job (cost of living, public safety, transportation, etc.). Moving to the US only makes sense if you're Indian or whatever

No, it just means you gotta try again. It’s normal to be demoralized after multiple failed attempts but you only need this all to click once. Took me 7 years of repeated fails to get my job and the job I have is better than everyone who rejected me. It does work out but you do have to keep going at it. Harder to get the job than it is to do the work

There is so much weath in the US, it's next to impossible for it not to spill out and when that seems to be happening, companies have to reign it in.
The US economy is trying it's hardest to eliminate thr 3 class system in exchange for 2. Basically winners and losers.
You are either just short of making it or you have an excessive amount of money to not worry about anything.

People who want to be in the middle and wanting to earn their money and not sucking government teat are made out as the biggest fools in the US right now.

It's stratified economy. Companies hire people to have them perform work they make money on. As relative share of wealth of the majority gets lower the money that can be made by providing goods to them also drops. A wealthy person consumes more, but they still require less labour than 1000 people earning 1/1000 of the richfag

My dad's house is worth 300k. He bought it in the 90's for 30k. Adjusting for inflation, it should be worth 70k now. Salaries have to go up to account for the massive, gargantuan increase in cost of living for the basics like housing, healthcare and education. Retarded cunts like you acting like people shouldn't be looking for high wages when the cost of everything everywhere is at all-time highs deserve to be shot dead in the streets.

You know what, I'm honestly tempted to do this. I'm tempted to submit my resume to a handful of employers, then submit the exact same resume with only the name changed to something Indian and document the results. Because this shit has to be fucking illegal, right? Like how the fuck would these American companies respond if it was publicly shown and documented that they are not hiring Americans with the exact same qualifications as some made-up jeet?

Yes, it could probably work to an extent (the degree to which jeet HR is lazy enough to only look for a jeet name on the rezoomay) but on the flip side: You do not want to work in an office that is 90% indian. Slavery is genuinely in their blood and they run any organization like a plantation.

You'd basically just be,as my old man says "what people talk about at the dinner table". It's the shit people talk about with people they are comfortable with. We know this shit is happening but the woke as a joke diversity-liberal retards keep propping it up. This is what happens when colleges are poisoned and then young people go out into the world with these poisoned ideas about the world.

I bet you do exactly the same fucking thing by sending out a resume of yourself being a BIPOC transgender person. All the HRE roasties would lose their fucking minds trying to hire you OR they'd at least schedule interviews out of fear of being called a bigot.

>>107149884
If we really cared about our citizenry we would have a more robust pipeline to ensure that young people could be successful. Like, actual hot, nourishing school lunches cooked on site, proper pre-K childcare for all, and cheap houses in every American city for 200K with preference for US born citizens, with immigrant families needing to be in the US for three generations to qualify for such housing. If I were running the country young people would be fucking set as long as they fucking showed up and tried to work hard and be smart, basically.

I just tell people if you go in for an interview/LinkedIn or see their mangers/CEO is Indian, don't even bother applying or coming back. Once a company lets one be in leadership, they hire their friends and thy literally fuck everything up until the company decides to clean house, which takes forever because the Indians know if the company fired all the Indians they get sued for being racist.

250k is nothing these days and inflation is just eating it away so you have to park it in realestate bubble or gamble with "investing" which is so uncomfy to deal with.
To think there where the times you could just keep your money in the bank and interests would cover for inflation...
