  • This probably one of those fake job postings I heard about.

    I would be willing to bet that it is a Ghost Job. I sympathize with that struggle. I’m sure I have applied to a couple of those recently, too.

    I found that many ghost jobs stay up for a while, so what I started doing to find leads was utilize search engine operators to find recent postings. Something like: (site:greenhouse.io | site:workday.com) after:2024-07-24 "system admin" That should find “system admin” jobs posted on workday and greenhouse, commonly used as internal job boards, posted in the last couple of days.

    You could even add more job boards to the list by using site: between the parenthesis and separated with bars to expand your search. Or you could change the after statement to today to find very fresh jobs to try to find posts less than 24 hours old and be among the first applicants.

    That trick (or maybe just my persistence with an overwhelming portion of luck, idk) managed to eventually get me something new, so I’m hopeful it wasn’t a fluke and it can help someone else, too.

    Best of luck.



  • the “do nothing congress” was miles better

    This sentiment is wrong. Making some effort to correct course should be a bare minimum. Accepting the broken system as irreversibly corrupt and doing nothing about it is objectively worse than using the institutions as they are intended. Even if these impeachments go nowhere, let it excite voters to turn out.

    If you show up and vote for the party that actually wants to accomplish something, here is an example of what can be done. If you want to see checks and balances in action, vote for the party that is willing to make it happen.

    With all the talk of the corruption of the most powerful court in the country, here is what the process looks like to fix it.

    Conversely, if you just want to lie down and allow the court to continue to tear down the other “co-equal” branches of government, and regress our rights in an overtly corrupt way, then go ahead and sit back down. Do what you seem to prefer our elected leaders do: Shut up and fuck off. Find another place to commiserate with other self defeated losers.
