because 50+ something CxOs with million dollar wages have a blog, a skill based resume and a github page, right?
you're proposing the same monkey dance that signal "skilled, but will ccept to be treated as a cog" which hr loves but is ultimately demeaning and dehumanizing - while the valuable jobs market moves on completely different gears
- ricardobayes 5y agoThis will be controversial, but this is why the rest of the population sees us as lazy or childish. I try to put myself into the shoes of reading this comment as an amazon fulfillment worker. Comes off as spoon-fed that 'you're too good to even set up a CV'.
- avereveard 5y agonothing wrong with being blu collar, but the amazon fulfillment worker didn't have to invest $$$ for five years of university and doesn't have, to land or keep his job, to keep training thorough his career and doesn't have his job landscape shift every six months as clients requirements and techincal fads change. we're specialized knowledge worker, which just happen to have had our profession born after feudal ages, otherwise we'd be in the lawyer/architect/doctor brackets. we're slowly raising up there but just because of the labor market growth is getting stripped by the labor demand growth in our sector, but take not of this, unless something changes fast about how we see and market our profession, we're going to get pushed back into blu collars bracket as soon as the situation stabilizes.
