So haiiiii errybody!!

I'm mainly here out of boredom...

I got turned down for a job a Wal-mart today because I am "over-qualified" and there are other people who need it more?

That was confusing.

My car that is barely a year old has been in the shop 5 times...

My boyfriend's best friends fiancee chased me with a baseball bat...

But life is pretty great!

How is everyone else doing?

Not really. "Over-qualified" is a polite way for an employer to say "You have a master's degree and yet you're applying to work as a gas-station cashier? Something's got be wrong with you. Next..."

Even though, in all likelyhood, it's just that there's a saturation of people with degrees and the market for labor is horrible. College graduates who should be getting into entry positions are getting denied and are increasingly taking menial labor work while they search. Walmart and employers who tend to hire people with less formal training (for their non-management positions) will likely shy away from hiring "over-qualified" candidates because these employees will quit immediately once they find something more suitable - and high-turnover is a constant challenge in low skill, menial workplaces.

tl;dr you were rejected because you probably have a degree and they know you'll quit within three months. Leave out the degree on your resume/pretend to be a minority next time

How exactly do you want us to respond? What answer will be sufficient?

Kyuki is a female member of RPG who was very active at a couple points in the history of the Spam subforum. She went through some tough stuff at school, came back to give an update and seek support, disappeared for a while again, and now is back to check in now that her life has taken a turn for the better, relatively speaking.

She has at various points had sets emphasizing cute dogs.

Hey! Thanks! I'm glad to see things are slightly back to normal on here too! Last time I was here it was a bunch of people I didn't care to know.

this is not the answer I thought would come of this question. I was waiting for the "She was a notorious jail-baiting 15 year old whore" at least that is how I would have described myself... based on my behaviour in previous years. I'm glad I've matured so much since all of those shenanigans... I've moved on to just being a puppy loving faithful lover. :'D

Note: I am not in a relationship with a dog/puppy... he is a real man...

I think?

Justttt kidding I know he's 100% man

Well, kinda dealing with lack of mobility due to falling and fucking up my knee. Add that on top of my disability and it's shit. Otherwise, not a single thing has changed. Still lazy, still drinking, still playing video games. Well, I watch more anime now-a-days, so that's new.

cut my leg off. It's kind of awesome actually. I recommend it. As a potential role model, I recommend voluntary amputations.

The weirdest response I ever got at a job interview was from when I applied to McDonalds when I was still in college. They turned me down because I didn't have any experience in food preparation. I had job experience that showed that I wasn't come crack head who quit every job they got a couple of weeks into being hire, but it wasn't the specific experience they wanted.

How the fuck can anybody ever get job experience if McDonalds requires it? That shit was unnatural.

I don't think I could do that, unless it got to the point where my leg/legs were completely useless. They're only about 50% useless atm.

I don't like to let the past ruin a person's future. Also, I mostly knew you by reputation, so I preferred giving you the benefit of the doubt.

Either way, I'm glad you've had some success since some of those—other—things. I'll leave the rest of the pampering to the people who actually matter. ;]
