i recently lost my job and it’s horrible being in the ‘unemployed’ class – you’re made to feel worthless, you have to take advice from people, perfectly well meaning of course, that are basically encouragement on digging your own grave - i love being in the position where i have to do some fake elizabethian courting ritual where i have to pretend i’m super excited to do whatever tf they do, oh and i’m the best man for the job! – when you’ve just sent in 200 applications and gotten nothing back, when you’ve just been let go for dubious bullshit reasons, you’re supposed to act like you’re ready for a challenge!

They can have it if want if they want those kind of jobs. Jobs do exist where bootlicking isn’t an unpaid requirement.
People are different though. Some actually prefer that shit. Maybe they don’t have anything else to offer or they have some kind of pleasing instinct or maybe it’s just plain old masochism, I dunno. It’s not for me and I still have plenty of jobs to choose from. I’ve left job interviews before because the “chemistry” wasn’t right for me.
If you want a good job you’re going to have to feign at least a little excitement once.
