I’m sorry but if AI coding platforms have replaced you as a programmer then you were a bad programmer or were poorly educated and should just work at Chipotle.
Even college graduates need time to learn and build experience as they work up the ladder. A lot of theory and stuff someone might learn in college won’t necessarily be what they’ll find in the job world.
The ladder that starts at Chipotle is not one that leads to work in the field you studied for. College graduates who are struggling to find jobs would relish the opportunity to work up the ladder in their field, but there are insufficient entry level jobs.
You’re so right. That’s why I graduated with a degree in computer science with a 3.58 GPA whilst carrying my teams on projects and worked my ass off to apply to many jobs and internships during my education as well as learning additional skills not being taught to me on the side…only to be met with nothing but rejection after rejection without so much as an internview. Guess I should just work at Walmart for $14/hr because I’m a talentless hack that will never amount to anything. $70,000 well spent!
The social contract is completely and utterly broken. For as long as hard work and investments in one’s future gets people absolutely nowhere, we will continue to be a degenerating society that doesn’t give a shit about being aspirational. There won’t be anyone left to care about space exploration or scientific advancements if all of the extremely talented people who can make it happen have the ball and chain of capitalism holding them down and sucking the life out of them. It’s impossible to dream big when you’re living in a nightmare.
If you have a degree, you can work somewhere else besides Chipotle. It might not be in the field of your major, but it will be better paying than fast food.

Everyone starts somewhere my dude
Exactly.

Pay no attention to the massive layoffs across the tech sector the last 2 years. Definitely the workers’ faults

what a poorly educated and tone deaf response to a post that didn’t ask for or need your opinion.
just because you have thoughts, doesn’t mean you’re free to share them.
What an uneducated and pointless response to a comment that didn’t ask for or need your opinion.
Just because you dislike the reality of our world doesn’t mean it’s not happening.
