I'm getting very sick of seeing friends with far less experience walking into jobs paying €100k+ while I'm maybe taking home €320 a week, half of that the dole, half from 30 hours a month of contract work. I'm getting increasingly angry at the world, because I cannot understand what I am doing wrong in life. It makes no sense. 😞

#FollowTheMoney 90/n 🧵 UK unemployment rate hits five-year high of 5.2%

In a way i am glad that at least rising #unemployment is slowly recognised and talked about in MSM - those of us who have lost jobs know anecdotally just how widespread #Redundancy now is.

worrying nonetheless. Not least because #underemployment- many working in PT low grade jobs to make ends meet - is not picked up at all statistically.

The market isn't announcing it's information security is getting any better, just that they intend to pay less to fewer people to work on that task, that's not progress, it's just terrorism against the labor market
