    I haven’t had a single job where I haven’t had to undergo weeks of training and months of building muscle memory to become adept at, yet every fucking job posting seems to demand years if not decades of experience and dedicated expensive training programs/education/certification, even for the most basic shit

    Like what the fuck for? Give me a week’s crash course and let me loose, there’s nothing about 80% of (non-specialist, I’m obviously not talking about doctors or engineers or whatnot) jobs that someone can’t figure out on the fly

      In programming they want someone who contributes as much as the other employees from day 1. It strikes me as deeply unrealistic.
