Because the economy has added more than 300k jobs in 3 single months over the past year. If you go back to the beginning of 22, that number goes up to 9.
While 300k jobs sounds like a big number, represents a small fraction of our economy. It doesn’t even account for 0.2% of total employment. And that’s over a year.
That being said, I’m glad I snagged my job when I did and that I’m being treated like I’m excelling at it.

Unemployment is at record lows. Some sectors are hiring a lot more people than the tech sector is shedding. It’s not really complicated.
Job sectors come and go, grow and shrink. Imagine how silly I would sound if I said: “there is almost no work for horse cart builders but the gov says that unemployment is at record lows, how can this be?”

It is disgusting to me how these tech workers think the world revolves around them and their field. I remember driving through SF once before COVID, and seeing a billboard ad that said “High speed data where it MATTERS”. At the time, on the other side of the Bay I had a download speed of like 25 Mbps, and was just like “okay I guess I’ll go fuck myself”.

You should try not being so angry and offended all the time.

You: Fuck you tech workers! The world doesn’t revolve around you!
