    What they should have done was just skipped college and worked for literal scraps at a retail institution, or go to a trade school and destroy their bodies/rip customers off for typically easy repairs/slave away for another trade business for years to feel good about not wanting to put the effort in to learn highly technical college skills like mathematics and physics.

    That would have been best for the assholes at the top of the economic pyramid. What were they thinking? There are H1B visa applicants to do what these dumb college students are doing for half the price.

    I’m being at least partially facetious lol

    Hard to believe. A story aired that said birthrates are down by over 1 million. So concerns about enough people for jobs. Now the issue is college graduates not finding jobs?

      There are plenty of shit jobs available. Ones that pay a living + enough to recoup the cost of education is what’s in short supply. The Dipshit taking a bludgeon to the manufacturing and agricultural sectors didn’t help either. Alienating our allies/largest markets are affecting jobs all across sectors

      Most of the people i met who graduated from the same CS program as me did not find a job in their field.

      This was in 2017

      And it’s only gotten worse
