        My point is that what you’re saying in these comments has little basis in reality.

        “It’s not that hard” is a painfully ignorant stance to take.

          It’s not that hard to find a job.

          I never said it wasn’t hard for anyone. It may be for some, especially the illiterate

            Are you deliberately moving the goalposts or just forgetting the context?

            “A job” is not the standard.

            it may be for some

            No shit. It’s a hell of a lot bigger group than just “the illiterate “ though.

              My sincerest apologies for not writing out the complete sentence. What I meant by “a job” was:

              a job where you can go home at the end of the day and feel like what you did that day has benefitted the human race at all

              I did not move any goal post. I thought “a job” was sufficient information about the kind of jobs we were discussing.

              just “the illiterate “

              That was a joke. About you. QED

                Ah so you’re back to no basis in reality. Got it.

                QED

                Usually proofs require… well… something resembling proof.

                  Yes. The proof would be your lack of understanding simple words in the English language.

                  QED, again.

                    Which simple words in the English language do you believe I don’t understand?

                    Also, remind me what it is that you’ve proved?

                    It sure as shit isn’t anything about jobs, which this thread is about.

                    Do you not know what illiterate means?
