"RAGE APPLYING!" - THE NEXT DUMB JOB TREND 

I owe my employer jack dick fuck.

Yeah, by what metric do I owe that? Things owed must first be earned.

@wheresimpreza No. That Sink is staying outside.

@@Nerobyrne we won't be able to afford it after we got a surprise layoff with no warning anyways.

Lol it’s insane how much a company believes you owe them because apparently, your paycheck comes from their goodwill and not your labor.

I'm rage laughing right now

Rage. Rage everywhere.

Awesome

All aboard the rage train!

Hhaahhaah, nice one!

Exactly! As soon as you express any unhappiness, you become a "problem worker" with a "bad attitude" and you risk putting yourself on the chopping block. They want that conversation so they won't be caught off-guard and can get ready to replace you before you quit.

@@adamd9166 Yeah and they want you to train your replacement too that’s why you can’t be honest about when you’re leaving

So true, they want loyalty but they’re the ones that hire people of the open market that you need to train and pay them better from day one than they pay you after 5 or 10 years working for the company and also the new recruits have less responsibilities. Where’s their loyalty and appreciation for their employees? Just saying thank you is not enough. Words don’t pay the bills

How many tantrums you think were thrown before security walking anyone out became necessary?

@@eddardgreybeard none, companies do it as a default, even to the point of violating the law by not letting the person they are firing collect their own tools/belongings. Iv seen it happen first hand, companies always make things far bigger deals then they need to. Those "tantrums"? yeah its the middle and upper management throwing them constantly. The workers are just trying to keep their heads down and get thru the shift without getting fired for dumb shit.

@@unyieldingsarcasm2505 *none, companies do it as a default, even to the point of violating the law by not letting the person they are firing collect their own tools/belongings.* 1) No, they aren't violating any law. It prevents employee theft and vandalism. If it is outright prevented, the employer in this case has the belongings collected and ready for the terminated employee to pick up later. 2) I don't know how old you are or how long you've been working, but you best believe employee retaliation from termination is exactly why it's done. It honestly wouldn't hurt to educate yourself on the matter: For every policy in place, there has been umpteen scenarios that have occurred which inspired these policies, including mass shootings proven to be the direct result of job terminations.

​@@eddardgreybeard Old coworker of mine flat had to get the police involved to get his very expensive respirator welding hood and work boots back. Other fires iv seen them just dump the contents of fired peoples lockers right into the trash. Once got offered tools from a fired employee, his personal tools, not the companies. But do keep going on about how "it really is", i guess i was just hallucinating repeatedly for the past decade. "I don't know how old you are or how long you've been working" old enough to know your the naive one here, iv born witness to to many shite workplaces being hostel with no reason to take what your saying seriously in the slightest. "It honestly wouldn't hurt to educate yourself on the matter" take your own advice kid, for every justified policy, theres 5 added just to be spiteful cocks.

@@eddardgreybeard +0.01$ added to your account.

Just add rage cushion somewhere 😂

Lol

And no rage quit? :P

xD

@@lerubikscubetherubikscube2813 Rage Quit needs to be there for sure......!!

Bruh 😂😂😂

So much comfort around common sense, take your full damn lunch, it's usually an hour, I don't understand the logic, lunch time equals lunch time.

haha

I eat in my car everyday because of this. I lose five minutes just walking but it's worth it.

That's the trick. You take something normal and add a negative word to it. "Toilet Refusal": people refusing to do some casual work while on the toilet (like picking up the phone). "Private Egoism": not responding to mails or phonecalls while you're off work. "Elevator Denying or Stairway Theft": taking the stairs instead of the faster elevator.

Company's don't want to pay and this is another excuse to not pay what the job is worth

They expect everything from you and they have nothing but excuses for you .

They want to exploit people for profit If you are powerless or it is impossible to find a better job they will tell you "if you don't like your job find a new one" but if you can they will drag your name through the mud so you become powerless again It is all about power

Yeah, when you got all your stuff in a box, abd about to walk out the door for the last time. "Shove your low paid wage slave crap with miniscule pay increases and no promotions up your butt sideways" as you stroll out the door.

They call themselves "People Teams" now. HR is so last decade.

It’s the lady at 8:00 for me. Like sis you ain’t even GOT not job

Overanalyze everything, but 99% without any actual analytical skills. As a data analyst it always baffled me, that HR makes core business decisions, yet in their department nobody has a proper understanding of data and statistics. They look at "industry trends" and go by intuition most of the time, especially the older generations. Every single company I worked at, at best HR could do a pie chart. No regressions, no clustering, no correlation matrices, and no clue what a P value or R^2 is even, and that's the problem. They put more effort into knowing the average employee nationwide, than knowing their own company's employees simply because the former already has research on them. Not to mention, most research is focused on the US, and somehow HR always assumes EVERY COUNTRY works like the US. It's like going to a doctor with a broken bone, and he insists it must be a heart problem.

They only hire if you're family or friend they know personally. Your credentials and qualifications don't matter anymore. If you aren't a popular person with a massive Facebook following, you can't even get past the application phase in order to get an interview with someone who matters in the company. You will be forever stuck with "while we appreciate the time you spent in applying with us, we have decided to go with someone who better fits the needs of our company". That is really "we looked you up online and you don't share any of the same friends with me on Facebook, so I'm going to sabotage your career opportunity so that I can hire my friends which are less qualified"

Exactly! I have no problem leaving an employer who does not value my work or wellbeing to find a more suitable one ☝️

And even that is optional lol😆 dependent on whether or not I acually decide I want to put them on my resume

You owe them the same conversation that they owe you in an at-will work situation.

Exit interview? Haha. How about "You have 20 minutes, clear out your desk, oh and by the way this guy in a suit is going to hover over your shoulder the entire time." I just about managed to say good bye to SOME of the coworkers I liked.

I don't do "exit interviews". If I quit it's because the company has fallen below my standards of what a good job is. Then I'm gone never to be seen again. If your company what's to dortball it's workforce then you deserve being ghosted

The new employer trend: pikachu facing

Bingo. That right there.

Hahaha. They didn't mean it. Effing entitled little shts. "You can't do better than this job."

"whoa! whoa! whoa! I didn't think you'd actually do it! I thought I could just exert leverage over you! shit! fucking ingrates" -CEOs probably

And who did that? THEY did this!

huh@@creepersonspeed5490

And you get two refusals. The other hundred plus? Nothing. Might as well fart into a hurricane, same result

/loud, uproarious applause and thundering bellows of support

You're my hero!

Absolute legend

@@OriginalContent89 Not really, I was an absolute coward. Listening to Joshua's videos knowing what he said was 100% right and still staying in that job for an extra 2 years trying to get what was promised to me and never delivered. I should of left two years ago but I was to scared of change.

Nailed it!

🤔… Rage writing!

Holy shit…chocolate rain is here.

The man himself.

Nice to see you stop by.

CHOCOLATE RAAAAAAGE

Homeless with a family? How do you get by? That sounds awful. Where do you sleep? How do you go to work? Do you live in a tent or something? Or homeless as in you dont own property but pay rent somewhere?

@@zinc2zinc2 Would you consider living in a RV homeless? If you don't, you might not realize how bad the situation is

@@johntodd6413 i dont think living in an RV is homeless. A lot of people do that.

@@zinc2zinc2 have you ever lived in one? It's not even close to a home. That's like me calling a bench a home because a lot of people sleep on them.

​@@zinc2zinc2Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe the description for "homeless" is in the word

They don’t go through applications. They have software for that. HR’s job is to make sure management doesn’t get the company sued.

Yeah they all just seem like overblown PR campaigns for bored “HR professionals”.

@@tawnygirl2000 If I see Taleo or others I immediately lose interest. They take an hour to fill out only to be black boxed when your app goes into a black hole. Employers who have enough employees use LinkedIn. Not HR systems from 2009 when we had 100 users to opening

They're attempting to stay relevant with their almost-worthless degrees.

they have lawyers for that

Nobody wanna converse with an asshole boss...we're just tryna get tf outta there QUICKLY

The conversation we owe our employer: "I'm resigning. Here's my two weeks notice. This is not up for discussion."

@@Seattle-2017 PERIOD!

Look at Google. People got text messages or a work email at 3am saying that their work account was deactivated. But you know you owe the company a conversation.

@@bloodCount8895 The old corporate double standard.

I owwe my employer exactly what we agreed on in the contract, not a single second of my time more. If they want a conversation when I'm leaving, they can hit me up and I'll tell them the rate.

Nah, what employers want is employees that don't complain, work more than contractually agreed for no extra compensation, and stay in their position for as long as the company needs them out of a sense of loyalty, while simultaneously reserving the right to unceremoniously walk them out the door the moment they underperform. The employee does not get to choose when they leave; the employer does.

People have to talk about the situation, and they need names for things. When trying to council a business on how to keep good employees, you need to be able to communicate concepts by giving them a name. "We will refer to this set of behaviors as "quiet quitting" and ways to avoid it. (or crush it with an iron fist!)" They might have called it "slacking" before, but this is a particular kind of slacking based on unhappiness about their job. Human resources wants to be aware of who is coming and going, and they need to know how much production they are facing, and when, so they can supply just the right amount and kind of labor needed. Too much, and you have people standing around, too little, and you cannot meet your production needs. Unfortunately, in this "on demand" work scenario, companies need to cut people when not needed. The unemployment system is made to help with that. You can get pay, help finding a new job, and get temporary insurance, while you move on to your next job. The companies feel that you are being taken care of, so they feel little or no guilt about getting rid of you. They will also escort you out of the building to reduce the chance that telling you that you are laid off or fired results in you doing something damaging to the company, like erasing all of your files or worse. Ideally, the needs of the workers and the management should be balanced, so that everyone is happy, but, systemically, workers have little power. The US government supports the on demand system with unemployment benefits. Biden supports unions. On demand work is efficient, and unions can help labor find work with good pay and conditions. Non-union is fine, too, but I feel that the employer should get to chose whether they want to work with a labor union, and the union should not be a part of the company, but rather a work allocation system that provides labor and benefits. This is an adversarial condition which is good. It keeps both parties making an effort to be needed. Unions can offer work on demand, while also taking good care of workers out of the money they earn from renting out people. Republicans have been battering unions for years. I do not foresee a future where Republican leadership ever leads to any power being on the side of the workers.

Rules for thee and not for me - ceo

Job hopping usually means under 6-9 months but that is still pretty funny

@@PalladinPoker Josh did a video where a CEO shamed workers who had less than 2 years spent at each job, saying he wouldn’t hire them because that’s not enough time to develop in your role, blah blah blah. That CEO had more than half his career at jobs he spent less than 2 years at, and the employees he hired had less than 2 years at their jobs as well. They’re all hypocrites, and just change “the rules” whenever they want.

@@therisashow oh I agree with you, I was just saying that by normal standards what you describe isn't really hopping.

The hypocrisy :/

You forgot pit one to another.

@@ctrlz4439 that is strategy number 3 - "kill with a borrowed knife"

It's all the rage!

ya all that ragin' got me pretty tired, but when i slept i had rage dreams

narcissistic morons vs competent creators

I know investing is good for a company to innovate but man there has to be a limit to stop investors from Indefinitely leeching off a company after it reaches a critical point and dividends are paid out to its workers that built the company.

"Ler's say it loud for the people in the back" is a really long and dumb way to say nothing

@AnalyticalReckoner Pretty sure the 'kids these days' use it as a way to say; hey this is important so we aren't gonna stop yelling about it. Just because you aren't a fan of certain slang phrases doesn't mean you gotta be rude about it man.

@@AnalyticalReckoner Well, she's right. Employees don't owe their employers shit beyond getting the job done. They don't owe their employers "an extra mile" or a two week notice. It's interesting to hear how many employers actually hate the free market.

"If you die, right here, right now, you will be an email." I've never heard truer words.

SAVAGE...🙂

I told them once I'm going to have to let you go.

They would prefer you were fired from your last job, and you're desperate for dogshit wages.

The most common interview advice is to avoid any hint of negativity about your current employer. The hilarious thing is HR thinking applicants are going to fall for their BS questions.

You got it. In my more naïve days, I would be like that too. I think you can imagine how well that went for me.

I would take no raise for a regular schedule right now.

Yea ha

according to the HR lady you are a bad person for doing this.. Jobs aren't about pay, it's about making a dream come true or whatever the fuck whimsical bullshit these corporate bots are saying now.

damn dude thats what i need a more predictable schedule

Same with me got a 30 percent pay boost, easier workload, a manager that treats me like a human being, and it's actually giving me experience in the job field I wanted.

"Omg, why are these chairs soooo uncomfortable? Do you feel that too? This sticking part that pokes my back everytime I lean back? No? You don't have that? Maybe it's just mine. Can we switch for an hour so I can check? Ugh the water in the watercooler is just awful! Is it fine if I drink straight from my bottle? Geez who turned up the heating, I'm fucking burning in here! Could you not roast me? Thank you! Guys can we please dim the lights? Have these carpets been cleaned this decade? Hello? Asthma from dust anyone? Uhmm would you mind typing in your very important emails a bit quieter? The keyboard is not a fucking anvil you know."

This is actually genius. Lmaoooo If im forced back into work ill be sure to do that. 😆😝🤣

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

😂😂😂

Rage commuting, rage collaborating

You have to go out and put your name out there and grab the opportunities for yourself, both within the company and outside of it. never wait for an opportunity to come to you. Oh sure you might hear someone say that good things come to those who wait, but better things come to those who refuse to.

Nah unless your job involves you meeting other companies and making connections no one's gonna come out of nowhere and see how special you are and recruit you on the spot. IF you want a better life you gotta look for it.

Wouldn’t it be illegal to just drop someone’s wages like that?

@@Maki-00 it happened to me at my work. went from an hourly restaurant job to slave labor style, $1 per pasty made. found a better job shortly after

@@sterlingw3611 how many pasties can you make per hour though. If you can make 120 per hour it isn’t too bad

@@1mol831 chances are, the employer made the change because they calculated that those particular kind of pastry won’t exceed the previous hourly wage, or that it’s physically impossible to exceed it.

@@Maki-00 You'd think it would be. But HR has the final say on earned wages if a Union is not involved. The way they see it, the lower the pay, the more ppl they can hire.

@t2k777 Brutal honesty is best lol 👌 🤣

But HR is women. All they can do is be passive agressive

@@MushookieMan For real. LMAO.

Lets hope that your new boss will not rage fire you 😂 ..............

Ditto.

Congrats!

sounds like you got the most useless degree ever

@James I got a degree in STEM. GIS data science. And I graduated during the pandemic. Most jobs pay shit when they are entry-level, and that's why I'm job hopping in one year.

What's your degree in, may i ask?

@@ms_cartographer if you have medical degree you could probably get a pretty good job in Tampa its all hospitals and Treatment type centers down here

Maybe try out a factory job for a bit. $27/hour with COLA at my place. I always thought the office job is where it's at, but my mind was changed when I tried it out. I don't have to work more than 40 to live comfortably.

Right? LOL

My parents taught me to do this even. They said apply for 5-7 jobs for the next two days and I’ve always ended up in a better position, still leveraging pay.

And somehow they know you've applied with rage...

I wish I had the skills to do that. I've always had a "jack-of-all-trades" mentality so now that I'm getting older, it's incredibly hard to just get one interview out of 15 applications.

No one else has a BS degree?

@@infotechsailor Correct. No one else that was hired for the position or promoted into the position has a degree, but I was told I *had* to have one. Of course, I didn't know that until later. I was talking to people over the years & would happen to mention something about college, and find out they never graduated or never went at all. Basically, the guy who hired me made some assumptions about my education, and once he went down that road, he couldn't pull back without looking biased. Him: "This position requires a degree." Me: "Yes. I have one..." Him: "Not an Associates degree; a 4 year degree." Me: "Yes. I have a Bachelor of..." Him: "Not an Arts degree, a technical degree!" Me: "YES. I HAVE ONE. As shown on my resume." It's on me, though. I should've left long ago.

So long as you view their actions through the lens of them being completely selfish and machiavellian, their actions make perfect sense. They want to make the most money and spend the least. If they can toy with your emotions to get you to give any extra input without them having to pay you for it, then it is good for the bottom-line.

same

B-but, you're so ANGRY!

In their mind, it is business when they lay you off, but it is personal when you are unhappy and quit.

🐵🙈🙉🙊

Does it matter when the end result is equally as dumb? The ends justify the means.

Companies hate to lose the upper hand. They want you to be open about your unhappiness so they can prepare your replacement and blind-side you.

💯

Right? Employees are starting to understand the mind games and manipulation; there's no undoing that now. And if companies double down on these tactics, they're going to make their relationships with their employees even worse.

It was a bluff, the entire time. And finally, people are calling their bluff

in the 80s loyalty was rewarded, now its ruthless and way worse - I do not see that as progress, feels to me like Boomers being Boomers, looked after themselves while young, now looking after themselves when old. The boomers are the cause for every decay on society going it seems to me.
