#1 ...And yet, the 'real job' sector - where people do actual labor for actual, tangible results - is enjoying unprecedented growth.

Curious. Wonder why.

#3 Don't tell these MSM weenies to learn to code. We have enough trouble with software that we don't have to encourage a surge in incompetence.

#4 I have no sympathy for the MSM; they've done this to themselves. We don't need to pay people for lying to us or for peddling disinformation and propaganda with the aim of putting the Donks in power.

#5 When you see your job as taking the raw AP/UPI newsfeed and adding/subtracting a paragraph or two then wandering over to the coffee machine ... why employ you? How many of these layoffs are useless drones that have zero real investigative experience?

#8 "Learn to code."

Huh huh, it appears that most of them are coding for the F-35 boondoggle!

I won't pay for 'pay-walled' news, if i had to pay for all of this mostly worthless news, I'll be broke in no time., they need to come up with a better scheme.
