I'm scrolling through indeed. It's all 3 years experience, 5 years experience required. Licenses required. Blah blah. There don't seem to be any unskilled labor jobs which are what I always used to fall back on.

The jobs I have applied for don't respond. Farms don't seem to hire. There's various hard labor jobs but they only pay like 14 an hour.

All the old people parrot this "nobody wants to work" crap.

Well, where the fuck can I find some real motherfucking work that doesn't pay less than a living wage? Fucking 1 br apts are 1800+ a month and I'm not paying that on 500 a week.

I'm on the hiring side for a construction company. I toss every resume with a foreign or Jewish name unless they are profoundly unqualified (if I toss them all, there's a discrimination case). I have what is, in my opinion as someone who has done it, a reasonable set of requirements. Most candidates from America are still shit. Maybe it's what the trades attract, but I have a lot of people who are unable or unwilling to think. I have to tell them which side of the trash can to stand on when throwing things out.

 I am then tempted to raise qualifications, maybe if this labor position requires a high-school or even college degree I'll attract someone less retarded. I know other construction companies have done it. It doesn't work there either, because you then attract people who think they are underpaid and too good for the job.

Labor is no fun, is the short answer
