I guess first quarter is usually the worst time in the year to job hunt but holy shit it’s fucking bleak out here. I live in a well populated college town in the south and 90% of job listings are nursing or something highly specialized. Slim pickings for the rest of us. Feels like my biology degree is totally useless when I can’t even get a call back from McDonalds lol. I’m so cooked
technically you’ve got a job if you work even one (1) hour a week for any money, in which case you don’t count as unemployed statistically
Also if you’ve given up on looking for work because you can’t find a job you also do not count as unemployed
they don’t count us because we’re supposed to die and whatever the rest of that ebenezer scrooge line is.
