  1. Entry-level positions requiring prior experience should be outlawed, and those responsible kicked in the shins once a day, every day. Just, randomly. Like, Mr. "Hurr durr, beginners need experience before they start somehow" is just going out for a coffee, and his paperboy rushes up and punts his pantleg. Mr. Hurr-Durr knows what he did wrong.

    2. @scribus so you support a catch-22 industry, or do you support actual certifiable task-training at college-level of education? Because companies are cheap and don't want to foot the bill for training anyone.

      1. @crusader8 I support the eradication of this "Everyone should go to college for everything ever!" attitude. What even is the point of K-12 when after 13 years nobody will hire an alleged adult who is now expected to just up and join a workforce which won't accept them until they've already been in said workforce? We've just shuffled off any applicable education to the college level while reducing the standards of education to "Can you guess at least kinda OK on a bubble-in test?"

              1. @crusader8 Sounds like a plan. I've got work, instead. Singular, and with a W in front.
