i lived in my city for 7 years taking the bus and i eventually had to get a car because a few jobs wouldn't hire me because i didn't have "appropriate transportation"
anyway fast forward to being at the job for a while, the parking lot stretches on so long that it's a 10 minute walk to the office from where i usually park, them i figured it i can take the bus to the building door in 15 minutes
so moral of the story is i bought a car to get the job and continued taking the bus
Add some fascism and you have the US in a nutshell.
Oh, they weren’t concerned about your transportation, it was just a quiet attempt at getting information about you. You learn quite a bit about someone from their ride, or lack thereof.
Buying a toy car and taking the bus would've been cheaper.
unfortunately they actually wanted to see it so I waited till I saw it enough and then started taking the bus eventually I sold the car but only after I was sure they wouldn't be looking for it
What the hell, you didn't need a car for the job but they still discriminated against you?
it was an IT job that typically requires it but the position i got slotted in didn't. it's just antiquated hiring managers thinking that people without a car can't be trusted to show up for a shift
Cars are bourgeois counterrevolutionary noise machines
Tony musta got a job with JP Morgan or Amazon or some cushy government job:
Employer: RETURN TO OFFICE!
Employee: ... okie dokie... where's my cubicle?
Employer: Fuck, wait, we actually need office space after we tell everyone to RTO?
Meanwhile I teach on a campus that charges people working there $5 a day to park and it's too remote for busses so I just park off campus and hike a little. Ugh
Annoying but good for your body :)
I need more Sopranos memes in my life
