Sadly having Facebook / Meta / Twitter on their CV makes them more employable, despite the lack of morals and ethics of their previous employer(s)

@zleap that might be. I wonder if employers might start shunning those people for their employment history... because businesses can't really afford to have unethical staff.

@lightweight @zleap
I have a B.S. in Comp Sci and get rejected for retail jobs. I currently work full time at a fortune 50 company.

Want to explain wtf is up with the current job market?

Optimistically, it's just me- but that could be convoluted.

@lucifargundam @zleap not sure. I worked as a research scientist for 5 years after finishing my MSc in engineering. Got frustrated with the organisation's poor management and their use of MS WIndows, so I quit and started my own company at age 29. I was able to avoid anyone else's incompetence other than my own. Worked out quite well. Now working for a charitable foundation, which is making the world a better place.

I have no real mental foothold as to get started on starting my own business. I really wish I did.

Any advice?

@lucifargundam @zleap I never had any ambition to run my own business. I came to it only because I couldn't see finding a role I wanted with an existing company/corporation/organisation. More on my story if you're interested in my motivations: davelane.nz/my-open-history
