Had a hard time explaining recently in a job interview that I'm mostly looking for work due to the need for family healthcare coverage. The European team interviewing me likely have no inkling how weird things are in the U.S.

Since Christmas is around the corner, a reminder that Wikipedia has a store. And the profits go to a project billionaires hate, so you're buying an object and getting free spite.

My experience exactly.
Candidates are facing some of the toughest job-hunting conditions since the 2008 financial crisis due to a blend of forces — low unemployment and job quits, slowly rising layoffs, and sluggish hiring.
Pessimism among job seekers is the worst in a decade
Workers feel awful about their chances of finding new jobs. Recent data from the New York Federal Reserve highlights the reality for those out of work amid the most stagnant labor market in years.

Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.

For every idiot like Ted Cruz, Bill Ackerman and Josh Hawley you find at Harvard, there are people like Sabrina Gonzalez Pasterski, a 1st generation American who finished with a 5.0 at MIT and got her doctoral degree in theoretical physics at Harvard. Many people call her the next Einstein.

Y’all I don’t want to be rude but there is no one-size-fits-all rule to protest and you should ignore anyone/any meme that says otherwise. Protest is a practice. You learn as you go, and it makes sense to start within your comfort zone. Watch the people around you, stay alert and use your judgment.

Whenever you hear conservative politicians preach from the gospel of "fiscal responsibility," remember that one of the biggest drivers of deficits lately are the Bush and Trump tax cuts, which have added nearly $10 trillion to the national debt.
