A friend of mine interviewed with a recruiter at a temp agency today. The job she wants is at a local university, and I asked her what it pays.
Well, I couldn’t believe this. They interview people and then the qualified candidates have to bid for the fucking job!

Whuuuuut?
/*speechless. Just … speechless.*/
It is a logical next step for the Powers That Be. Will probably save millions.
But, as Barbara Garson notes, in a consumer society where the great majority of workers never earn enough to have any discretionary income or have precious little, who buys the damn stuff????
I was wondering when this was going to happen. “Apply online and pay to submit your resume.”
I bid “fuck you.”
Well, I guess that’s one way to go about it. Anything for a buck, isn’t that right?
