i took os and dist sys over my 5th coop, one of the worst mistakes i ever made

[echo latch]

ece versions of both?

[random raft]

yea

[lunar sandal]

what do yall even do for fun in waterloo

genuinely

[echo latch]

rest in rip

[random raft]

350 workload was crazy

[lunar sandal]

writing a scraper to scrape other scrapers

[echo latch]

uptown Waterloo is fun and there are some decent bars and clubs

we are also v close to a party school

[random raft]

[hot rapids]

that sounds really challenging lol

[random raft]

it was bad

[echo latch]

it’s v house party vibes around here

[lunar sandal]

i c

[hot rapids]

I tell my sisters to apply to UWO but they said naw they'd be depressed

[echo latch]

But like that is def not the average eng/cs kid here they’re prolly playing league or val

[lunar sandal]

ew

[echo latch]

For the most part Waterloo is v boring unless you seek out social interactions

[hot rapids]

I had a coffee chat with an OW dev and they gave me a riot gun buddy cuz their bf worked at riot

[lunar sandal]

i like that a lot of non passion ppl (me) have infiltrated the cs industry

changing the demographics and stereotypes

think they meant UW not UWO

[echo latch]

It’s like you put 150 people together and a good majority of them don’t have any semblance of social skills bc they’ve been grinding their whole life

[hot rapids]

o waterloo I mean

[echo latch]

Are they outgoing

[lunar sandal]

wow thats 0.5 uoft cs class size

[hot rapids]

sometimes ppl get confused when you write UW bc of uwashington

but we are canada channel

[echo latch]

this is j ece idk cs numbers

[random raft]

as someone who took almost all their courses in the math and science faculty, eng faculty courses actually felt really interesting. everyone going to the same exact classrooms everyday was kinda funny

competely different in math

[hot rapids]

I think they're worried about the guy:girl ratio

[echo latch]

LOL that’s funny I need to get me a gun buddy

[lunar sandal]

this is overrated as FUCK to worry about tbh bro, frat and sorority halo fades immediately after first/second year

[hot rapids]

also they are really put off by the engineering dudes in their HS classes, and UW has that vibe to them for some reason

[echo latch]

oof that’s fair. Idk about cs but it’s been getting better in eng

I think it’s like 30:70 now (yes this is considered better than before)

[hot rapids]

I remember a few years ago I read it was like 14-18% women in engineering

that's pre crazy

[random raft]

about 400, unless you look at the class of 2025 which is 800

[echo latch]

Going to class w the same people for 5 years is p nice

[echo latch]

Bruh? How?

[random raft]

yea they split the courses into so many sections

[echo latch]

That’s also v fair. And unfortunately I’ll have to say a good number are still like that at least at the beginning of uni

But there are “normal” people tho it’s not that bad

[oblique quiver]

cs admins did a whoops

[oblique quiver]

(also hi ddos :0)

[random raft]

[oblique quiver]

woooooooooooooo

hows it goin :0

[random raft]

am chillin

ur not doing the ft search yet right,

[oblique quiver]

nope 🙂

[random raft]

[oblique quiver]

it sounds very bad ...

[random raft]

Yea looks rough if you don't have RO

[oblique quiver]

ideally i either exit next summer with RO and grad in 2025 or exit with RO for grad in 2026 🙏

[random raft]

[real island]

I still couldn’t get into CS that year

😢

[analog current]

Ok this how I’m gonna cope with freshman amazon offer

😭

[analog current]

In all seriousness: the mentality I’ve had is that what you put in is what u will get

If u sit behind a screen all day then nothing

But if we goofy out here we just go to Toronto since it’s 15 bucks 💀

I think it’s very good to make a balance for these things so it doesn’t fuck u up. Not everything is careers

[lunar sandal]

it was a rhetorical question ik the town is dead af

[analog current]

imma give u the whole ass answer idgaf

i love answering questions

good morning brother

[lunar sandal]

gm

[robust lotus]

you got afe?

[echo latch]

idk how it’ll be going forward tho, my roommate for example is being screened out w amzn and asana

so they’re def gonna be stricter

[analog current]

maybe

[analog current]

is this the computer engineering guy

[analog current]

idk if im aiming for quant yet tbh but i am looking for more unicorn roles

i already have double FAANG on my resume

i want something like roblox or stripe

I am also doing hackathons for fun: I am planning on both calhacks and hackprinceton in the upcoming month

[timid tartan]

Amazon?

[analog current]

Well shit nvm @echo latch

[analog current]

yes and another company

[timid tartan]

Nice

Tbh idk whether Amazon still counts anymore lmao

Feels like nobody cares about it these days

[analog current]

better than nothing u feel me

[timid tartan]

I mean ye ofc lol

[analog current]

yeah it’s not as prestigious

[timid tartan]

I've got amazon too but I feel like recruiters are bored with it

[analog current]

i really don’t wanna stay with amazon too long tbh

[analog current]

💀

[timid tartan]

Yea don't lmao

You have a lot of options

Especially if you're Canadian who can go to the US

[echo latch]

Prestige

oh no

[timid tartan]

Nah it's not really about prestige either

[lapis tide]

zon not hiring

[timid tartan]

I've heard some managers/recruiters saying they specifically blakclist ex-Amazon engineers lol

Bcs of culture fit

[analog current]

yo where 💀

[echo latch]

Actually I’ve heard this too lmaoo

[timid tartan]

I don't remember anymore but tbh it kinda makes sense if you think about it

They do have valid reasoning honestly

[echo latch]

People talk about it being a problem a lot in the google blind

[analog current]

dawg 💀 ik someone who got afe who doesn’t know how to code

I was mad as fuck when I found that out

[timid tartan]

That's why sometimes I think having Amazon on ur resume actually hurts you more than helping you lol

[analog current]

like im serious he doesn’t know how. He spent the internship getting yelled at and paying others to do his work

[sly kindle]

AFE?

[analog current]

I’m not joking he doesn’t know how to code

Like I’m serious 😭 he can barely read and was failing his classes

[timid tartan]

I don't know how to code either

Dkm

[analog current]

Amazon future engineer

[timid tartan]

[sly kindle]

He URM?

[analog current]

yeah i am too

[analog current]

he lied on his application to get the scholarship too

[sly kindle]

Beast

[analog current]

insane

[lapis tide]

name all represenations

[sly kindle]

I’m LGBTQIA+, Hispanic, and a woman

(At least on my applications)

Try to not hire me challenge

[analog current]

honestly if he just took his hs experience and actually tried in school to learn how to code, i would have more respect for him. dude put in no effort into the internship either so he is not going to get a ro

[timid tartan]

Doesn't mean I know how to code tho

Could be nepotism right

👀

[analog current]

what school do u go to

are u a uw kid

(washington)

[timid tartan]

University of Homeless

[echo latch]

UW campus is the nicest college campus I’ve been to

Why they got a huge ass Sakura tree garden in the middle of campus

[timid tartan]

UW = Waterloo or Washington?

[echo latch]

Washington

[timid tartan]

Oh ic

[echo latch]

Waterloo sucks lol

[timid tartan]

LMFAO

[analog current]

have u been to ubc campus

[echo latch]

Actually I liked Waterloo campus more than mit

[timid tartan]

I don't even care about how my campus looks

[echo latch]

Harvard is nicer than both tho

[timid tartan]

Ain't got no time to enjoy it

[echo latch]

MIT frat parties go crazy

[echo latch]

yes

actually ubc overall might be nicer

[analog current]

omfg ik of these twins in an mit frat

they’re age kids

afe

[analog current]

😍😍

[analog current]

This an engineering major. Imma refuse you’re cs

Those mfs have no time to go outside 😭

[timid tartan]

No seriously you won't have time for that when you do school full time + work/internship full time simultaneously

And also you still have to do job hunting + interview prep lmao

[robust lotus]

the dream

no need to do any coping

afe & us citizen the 2 things I'd buy for 50k if I could

[fickle lotus]

UBC campus is nice but when you're a commuter student with a full course load the appeal goes down fast

My commute was 1.5 hours one way 💀

[hot rapids]

Yeah so real

[echo latch]

j dont go to classes

also why is it such a hike to get to/from the baech

gimme an elevator

[real island]

Lazeez 🔥

[analog current]

my classmates were shitting themselves from lazeez 🔥🔥‼️🙏

[real island]

💀💀💀

[eager elk]

Which companies can touch 200k in Canada? Does anyone have a list?

[echo latch]

for new grad? basically none lol

need to temper those expectations right down

[eager elk]

Fuck i thought there were a few

[echo latch]

no

[lapis tide]

stripe

[turbid island]

tim's customer service engineer

[echo latch]

stripe is the only one that's close but it's paper money

[lapis tide]

0 base 200k stock 0 bonus

[echo latch]

google goes up to like 180k if you negotiate

but they only negotiate if you have an offer higher than google

and they're prolly also not hiring external new grad anyways so it's a moot point

[eager elk]

I feel like top tier tc for new grads in canada has been 150k since 2018

[echo latch]

that leaves amzn w like 150/160

no it's gone up

j hasn't gone up as much

you dont need 200k to live in canada

[lapis tide]

that is not a company in canada

[eager elk]

For ZipRecruiter

[lapis tide]

sounds like us position no?

[eager elk]

Nah zip has given that offer in the past for canada ng

[echo latch]

251k is a weird number it seems converted lol

[lapis tide]

"in cad" and "remote in canada" sounds like its a us position

[echo latch]

i know zip is remote so it def is working remote from canada for an otherwise us role

[eager elk]

I could be wrong

But ZipRecruiter recruiter told me their us and canada offers are comparable

Zip allows remote in canada

Like even now for their current new grad position

Im in the process
But prob def going to fail final

[echo latch]

i can j ask my friend lol he's ng at zip
and also taxes gonna take up all that if they don't have a presence in canada

if they're on us payroll they're going to be taxed twice

[eager elk]

Ah i see that would make sense

It seems too good to be true

[echo latch]

i find it hard to believe zip ng will pay 251k on canada payroll; the whole point of canada is cheap labour for us companies

[eager elk]

True i myself find it hard to believe

Plus its a public company so its not paper money either

Very hard to believe this

[candid oxide]

Ziprecruiter paid the us pay in Canada last yr

Cut it this yr

[lapis tide]

what do they do bro

[echo latch]

are they not j another linkedin

[lapis tide]

never heard anyone say "yeah i got a job from ziprecruiter"

seems more like indeed

only on ziprecruiter

80% of employers who post on ZipRecruiter get a quality candidate within one day.

[timid tartan]

Coinbase 185k

Can't negotiate though lmfao their TC is standardized for every position + level

[echo latch]

crypto

[timid tartan]

[echo latch]

i j saw a post the other day about people surprised how crypto companies pay this much when it's so daed

[lapis tide]

yeah how do they pay this much

[timid tartan]

No idea

[echo latch]

I think a big part of the akuna lay offs were bc crypto crashed

[timid tartan]

We'll see when I get the offer

[echo latch]

aint no way im going to that space lol

[timid tartan]

[timid tartan]

Well I mean for me personally, I'm fine with crypto companies but I don't wanna work directly with their crypto products

[lapis tide]

what other products do they got

[timid tartan]

I just don't want to work with the customer facing products lol

[lapis tide]

hmm

[timid tartan]

That's why I chose security back then

I think their security team is very solid

[echo latch]

i think coinbase laid off almost 40% total if you start counting from mid 2022 right?

[timid tartan]

Ya around that

[echo latch]

[timid tartan]

BUT

I remember the directory of security team said security was the only team that didn't get hit by layoff

[echo latch]

only crypto company id join is jump crypto they got some insanely smart people

• rust

[timid tartan]

The problem is we don't have that many top tier TC choices in Canada

Maybe Nuro if they still hire in Canada?

[hot rapids]

I heard asana and apple NG can reach that TC

[echo latch]

Iirc Apple doesn’t have entry-level roles in Canada

At least as of a year or so ago it was only seniors

Also j checked google nego’d goes up to ~190k in Canada

[real island]

There’s Apple in Canada?

Like for jobs^

[hot rapids]

Yeah in Vancouver

[real island]

Oh damn that’s sick

[hot rapids]

Friend of a friend said they got a new grad RO in Vancouver, pretty rare though I think

[hot rapids]

https://jobs.apple.com/en-ca/details/200474819/xcode-cloud-internal-ci-backend-engineer

Some jobs, but pretty few. I think they opened a new office here a few years ago

[real island]

😯

That’s sick

Apple Vancouver the dream now

[smoky flare]

did Okta get back to anyone yet?

[fickle juniper]

U can get Apple as a new grad in Van

[hot rapids]

Hook me up ;)

[real island]

Oh fr?

Do you know what teams they got in vanc?

Do they hire interns in Vancouver ?

[random raft]

BitGo Remote Canada offer is not bad, only thing that sucks is its a crypto place lol. But it will touch 200k cad without stock option

Idk if remote counts though

[real island]

😭😭😭😭😭

[formal prism]

hey I got a question about visa sponsorship to work in the US

[sullen roost]

Hi, does anyone know will RBC Amplify open again? I applied on Sep 14, then the position closed; and it reopened on Sep 24 and closed yesterday again.

[real island]

For dev the deadline was October 8th, so no

[sly kindle]

Intern? J-1 yes. Full time? TN no

[real island]

Pretty sure you need to tell the employer you legally need sponsorship no?

[sly kindle]

😉

If you're a sheep yeah

[sullen roost]

Actually it was Oct 7 lol. It closed last night

[real island]

Okay well it’s not opening again lol

Description said October 8th but it was October 7th 11:59pm

[sullen roost]

Get, thank you!

[tough knot]

Have oas been sent out

[real island]

Yes

Maybe they’ll send more out not sure

[tough knot]

Rippppp

[real island]

They sent some like couple days ago I think

[tough knot]

did you get one

[real island]

Ye

[tough knot]

nice

[real island]

Some Interview invites came out recently too

But I didn’t get cuz I think my score too low

[tough knot]

I ain’t getting one then lol

what was the OA

Gca?

[real island]

Ye proctored

It was my first GCA so I bombed it 😢

[vernal sigil]

Why rbc always ghost me

[tough knot]

what did you end up getting on it

[real island]

400

[tough knot]

Isn’t it out of 1200

[lunar sandal]

its out of 600

[tough knot]

Mine was 300 per q

damn, rip amplify I guess

[real island]

GCA is out of 600 now

I’m gonna try to redo it tho

I have the 2nd link they sent me

I’ll redo it tomorrow then email

[tough knot]

Ah, so it used to be 1200?

[real island]

800

[timid tartan]

850

But yea >=800 is considered safe enough most of the time

This time it’s most likely 600 or gtfo

[real island]

Oh really? Damn

[timid tartan]

Yea but tbh anything at least 800 used to be ok at that time

[real island]

^

[real island]

Ahh yeah I remember hearing about that

[timid tartan]

I’m not looking for internship but amplify was the most stupid interview I have ever done in my life

Idek whether they wanted to hire software engineers or business consultants at that point

The interview was literally more on the business side

[real island]

Rbc needs to humble themselves asking for a 500+ score

😭😭😭

[timid tartan]

Nah market is messed up

They can ask whatever they want LOL

[real island]

True ig

I wouldn’t do rbc tbh unless I had 0 options

Who you saying this to lol

[timid tartan]

Including capital markets?

[real island]

I guess since everyone I asked who got interview got 509+

[real island]

Capital markets I would

Ah okay

[timid tartan]

Yea capital markets is pretty cool IMO

[teal remnant]

How is whatnot

Anybody heard of whatnot ?

[timid tartan]

I love your pfp btw 😂

[real island]

Rbc amplify I think you work in a Group of 4 other interns

So it’s not really an internship ig

[timid tartan]

Nah 40 is max across all RBC IIRC

I got 40/hr at Borealis AI

[teal remnant]

Bro got 40 at rbc

[timid tartan]

Recruiter said it’s the max at RBC

[teal remnant]

Bro cracked asf

[real island]

Damn max 40 😭

[timid tartan]

Nah bruh I negotiated lmao

[timid tartan]

Welcome to Canada

[real island]

Real

[teal remnant]

Wdym 40 is solid

That’s more than most new grads

[timid tartan]

In this economy yes

Last year uhhhhh

[real island]

True true

Amazon needs to give OA on Wednesday

Or it’s over

[timid tartan]

Calm down lmfao

[teal remnant]

wtf

[timid tartan]

They might not even have processed the applications yet

[teal remnant]

Mfs need to calm down it’s only October

[timid tartan]

They have

[real island]

They started last week I think

[timid tartan]

Some people have gotten ROs

[real island]

Status changed to under consideration

[timid tartan]

I haven’t though

[timid tartan]

Ah ok

Yea just wait then lmao

[real island]

Ohh you can still get a RO?

Hope you get it 🙏

[timid tartan]

Ya but only some US people got it so far

[teal remnant]

They will hire new grad over RO

[timid tartan]

Just gonna play the waiting game

[real island]

😢

Ye you waiting for Canada RO?

[timid tartan]

Yeah but I’m not gonna rely on it either

But yes

[teal remnant]

Go to rbc @timid tartan

Rbc big tech

[real island]

Ahh true

[timid tartan]

LMAO

[teal remnant]

Rbc >> zon imho

[real island]

Rbc and tech in the same sentence

🤔

[timid tartan]

Bro what

[teal remnant]

Welcome to 🇨🇦

[timid tartan]

[real island]

Bro thinks Zon is a bank

[teal remnant]

I love zon

[alpine compass]

Anyone here applying for new grad?

[teal remnant]

Zon is a bank fr fr

That’s basically every bank

[real island]

From what I can see, I need to rely on RO 🥲

[teal remnant]

Yeah cibc does that too

Idk fk cibc tho

Mfs not even good for accounts major

I would rather be an accountant at zon

[real island]

Real

[lapis tide]

@vernal sigil

[real island]

💀💀💀

[vernal sigil]

Zon not hiring

[alpine compass]

Are internships not affected as bad as new grad for this year?

[timid tartan]

LOL

[timid tartan]

Yep new grad is 100x harder

Internship market looks much much better honestly

[teal remnant]

New grad easy

[lapis tide]

ok steven

[timid tartan]

Mf

[teal remnant]

[alpine compass]

Yeah that’s what it looks like to me as well

[timid tartan]

Yea but it is what it is

I'm pretty much applying all over the world bcs there's barely anything in Canada

[alpine compass]

Oh lol

But yeah it’s completely dead in canada for ng

[fickle juniper]

check ur dms ||you won’t find anything||

[fickle juniper]

I only know of the team my friend is on, kind of a cloud team I think

[real island]

Real

[real island]

Ahh I see that’s cool

[sly kindle]

New grad market in Canada is sad

[twilit sable]

how is capital one still up after they probably already recieved over 1000+ apps

[dark lintel]

They probably have way more app that 1000+ haha

I guess probably 5000 +

[teal remnant]

They hiring in 100s

100 new grad

[dark lintel]

How do youknow?

[teal remnant]

Idk I am guessing

[dark lintel]

they probably hire way less than that I feel

it's a small tech office they got here in Canada

[teal remnant]

At most 100

[dark lintel]

it's possible they hire 10.... did a rough math

source: trust me bro

[teal remnant]

C1 don’t even have much business here

[dark lintel]

yeah they need to reinvent some tech wheels that their US offices already have due to regulation reasons, that's majorly why they have a tech office here

[echo latch]

No

Legally speaking TN isn’t a sponsorship

[real island]

Oh damn

But I’m pretty sure you need to say you legally can’t work in Canada, but that you don’t need sponsorship

[echo latch]

US*

[alpine compass]

Don’t forget the 6 rounds of interview after that

[fallen mason]

followed by resume screen

[untold geode]

Bruh I'll create an extra round and send it your way so you can test me with said round

On a side note, I wanted the discord opinion on heading back out to one's home country for work exp seeing as Canada NG positions are dead

[hot rapids]

I feel like that could work if it’s a known global brand

[echo latch]

Generally I’d say it’s better to try to stay in Canada

[storm stream]

DARN YOU WAYFAIR

[fickle juniper]

I think most big tech put tn in the same bucket as like h1b, etc

[echo latch]

no they usually don’t

Bc the work for h1-b is >>>> work for tn

Anyways use Canadian buff the government says it’s not sponsored so you say it’s not sponsored

[fickle juniper]

Well I mean in terms of considering it as sponsored vs not

[echo latch]

Unless they specify

[fickle juniper]

Ur right it’s less work

And technically yes it’s not visa sponsorship

[worthy urchin]

whats tn

[fickle juniper]

But when they ask this q they’re trying to assess if u need some kind of legal support to work in the US

[fickle juniper]

https://www.uscis.gov/working-in-the-united-states/temporary-workers/tn-nafta-professionals

TL;DR it’s a visa for working in the US

[stable ravine]

it's a single intent visa tho

unlike h1b

[storm stream]

I put no

Doesn't need sponsorship so I ain't lying

[echo latch]

it’s also guaranteed unlike the 10% h1b chances

You can have h1b processing on the side until you get it and switch over to it

So you can go thru w the green card process

[storm stream]

Some do get rejected if the border officer is being cranky or extra anal

[echo latch]

You try again in like a week then

[storm stream]

but you just try again

LMAO ya

[stable ravine]

There are some people who ended up like that true. They also don’t guarantee anything up until signing an offer tho

Google interviewed v few external interns for the 2023 season most people in the pipeline moved from diff seasons

[tight gale]

[stable ravine]

isn't it becoz of interest rates?

🤔

[timid tartan]

Maybe I really should have gone to a culinary school instead

People don't stop eating at least

[timid tartan]

[tight gale]

Actually real I think they are testing automating fast food places already

[timid tartan]

Well I've seen a video showing one of McDonald's branch in the US operating with 0 humans

So everything from the cashier to the kitchen are all robots

[boreal sentinel]

we will be happy without nothing

[tight gale]

It's joever McDonald's was my safety

[timid tartan]

Ain't no way it's safety

[fickle juniper]

[vocal lagoon]

Does anyone have any tips for getting a part time job? I've only ever worked on campus and now that I've graduated im ineligible for most roles. I've heard its best to apply in person, I haven't had much luck on indeed/ LinkedIn

[tough knot]

What type of job

[vocal lagoon]

Honestly I don't mind anything. I did customer service in the past and technical support during my internship. So anything similar. I'm also looking at data entry clerk/ administrative assistand roles

[tough knot]

try applying to tutoring roles on Indeed, some pay super high and based on your education they contact you back instantly

for and gl!

Ah, gl

[real island]

[timid tartan]

Rise and grind bruh

[soft hamlet]

Min wage is like 16.50

GOOD LUCK

[soft hamlet]

Freelance maybe

Learn how to do sales and then eventually a business will contract you

That shouldn't be a thing 🤔

I'm 18 rn so I was like 10 years old

Holy

💀

There is a part time job shortage so my friends leverage that

~17-18 or else they can find a better rate somewhere else

Oh my friends in HS were getting paid the full min wage, probably to get them to stay

Pain

Scam

I got offered $18 to scoop food at a retirement home

Do it

Probably other questionable practices

Pain

I do consulting on the side during school and I never do extra hours

Isn't it like free $15 of food

You get paid an extra hour it's good

It is what it is

They account for that loss

As long as you are happy and don't mess up orders, it should be fine

Yeah I need 2 combos to make me satisfied

It's so expensive

Sausage land

I'm in Ottawa

You can probably guess from my name

You can get a shawarma here for $70 and that gives ~8 portions

Way more food

8 full meals

It's not that bad nowadays

It's the family platter

[vernal sigil]

Why students got a lower minimum wage there

[magic perch]

ziprecruiter making ppl do that codesignal for jokes 🤡

[candid oxide]

are u allowed to get a j1 for internship while ur in school at same time ☠️

[urban ore]

Yea

[candid oxide]

have a company that i accidentally applide to summer intern for then i asked for ng and they asked if i can do winter internship even though i grad apr 24

[urban ore]

The only restriction is if ur visa sponsor is cultural vistas they make u be enrolled in a full time course load at the time of application (if ur in coop and on a work term that counts as full time course load)

But I heard there’s ways to get around that too, idk how

Once u get ur j1 and start ur internship, no1 knows what classes ur taking

[candid oxide]

was just wondering if school would find out cuz I don’t think they’ll be happy esp cuz capstone and stuff

[urban ore]

R u in coop

[dapper thorn]

Haven’t opened this in a few days

Is zon hiring yet?

[candid oxide]

Ya but I was talking about j1 during a school term

[turbid crater]

Anyone here did the okta or LinkedIn interview ?

[lapis tide]

@vernal sigil

[normal jetty]

I think sending a confirmation of enrollment to show ur full time is enough, the school won’t know what ur gonna do with it

[vernal sigil]

[gilded lichen]

"Must possess unrestricted work authorization in the U.S." --> does this mean i can't apply if i need a J1 visa?

Nah that era's over bro, they got hella strict in recent years. 50% off only applies to dollar menu stuff now (chees/hamburgers, jr chicken etc). Managers also started strictly enforcing no free food

Inevitable outcome, gotta squeeze every last cent of profit for shareholders

Shouldve told em to sharehold deez nuts when they came for employee food

For example, one in four respondents indicated that they might not be able to keep a roof over their family’s head over the next two months. That finding was up six percentage points from the last poll and was “the highest level recorded since July 2020.”

Maru found that one quarter of those in the $100,000-plus income bracket reported being worse off and were struggling to make ends meet. Twenty-one per cent said they may not be able to keep a roof over their head in the next 60 days, and 14 per cent revealed they may default on a loan or mortgage.
