The "deaths of despair" trifecta — alcoholism, overdose & suicide — hit unskilled middle-aged white men in the US uniquely hard, and this seems to be the one demographic we're totally fine shitting on in lieu of bothering to look for any kind of systemic problem (mobile.twitter.com)

Movieblob's head is so far up his own ass that it's returned to its original position.

I have a masters in math and I can't even get an in-person interview. Or in the age of rona, whatever is the final round of interviewing.

I've finally managed to get to a second round of phone interviews. I'll be sure to mention the fact that I'm white. Surely they'll offer me the job on spot. I'll bet none of the other suckers who applied thought of that!

I'm in a similar boat brother. I went back to college as a mature student, got a law degree, with a very good average score, and 13th in my class over all. I've been applying for jobs for over a month and I haven't even got near an interview. I feel like I'm taking a shit from the clouds and hoping it lands in a toilet.

At my company HR policy prohibits us from extending an offer until we interview at least one "diverse" candidate.

We had a candidate who was a STEM PhD from one of the top 2 "Institutes of Technology" with extremely relevant post-doc experience, and we couldn't extend him an offer because he was the wrong race. Granted we may not have won that particular battle for his talents, but HR wouldn't even let us fight it.
