Not really talking about the current job situation, but do you ever notice how there are no postings for really obscure positions that definitely exist but are never posted anywhere? I feel like David Graeber would have a lot to say

    It wouldn’t be so annoying if people didn’t cling so hard to the meritocracy delusion. I remember being told as a kid that if I worked hard, it would pay off.

    What I wasn’t told was that my work would have to be seen by someone in a position of power.
