Every day that I spend applying to jobs is another day I feel like the economy is telling me I'm unwanted.

Vacation
The homeless woman that normally begs outside the Newmarket burger bar wasn’t there today.
I hope she’s gone somewhere nice for her vacation.
Unemployed
Nobody needs to be unemployed in this country.
You can always get a job sitting outside Burger bars asking for spare change.
Updated my CV recently. Doc here as usual: https://bit.ly/juhocven

P.S. I dislike Google, but in this case Docs is just very handy: easy to update, downloads available in various formats, print-ready, and somewhat works on mobile too. Suggestions for workable alternatives are welcome.
When you're #unemployed, why not build a thing to track your #job applications?
Data is not 100% accurate (perhaps, 80% accurate haha), but I like it still.
I just want everyone to understand that is not actively job hunting just how bad the overall job market is right now. Can you tell that I was ghosted yet again, from a situation that I have no control over?
As of this evening I am now #unemployed. (Contract ran out.)
There is a small chance that I might come back to TU/e, but that depends on funding and that doesn’t look great right now. In other words: If you are looking for a cryptographer (with Dutch PhD-equivalent) specialized in post-quantum key-exchange protocols in the Netherlands or fully remote (I am currently somewhat tied to staying in the Dutch healthcare system), feel free to contact me.
#GetFediHired
I despise asking for help in such situations, but if anyone reads this that is charitable enough, my Ko-Fi is listed below as any donation would be helpful to cover keeping a roof over my head.
Reposts are appreciated and thanks in advance for any assistance.
For anyone knowledgeable in recruitment, referrals, or even you know a place/person hiring in the IT industry for a System Administrator, IT Support, Helpdesk, or any entry level role feel free to reach out.
Primarily seeking a position that is either remote, hybrid , or on-site. Can be local to Michigan, Washington state, or possibly any progressive blue state, or If any anyone is knowledgeable of potential companies residing in an EU Union country (Germany, Nordic, Dutch, Ireland, Finland, etc) that is offering sponsorships for talent please feel free to reach out as the United States of America is increasingly becoming a place too unsafe to live.
As well for any locals of Michigan reading, this post includes ANY full-time position outside of Information Technology as I am currently unemployed in job search hell.

Today's "I'm laid off and running out of things to do" task. Potting some wild plants from the backyard. Every spring we get these beautiful flowers wild in the lawn which I believe are Viola sororia.
Anywho, now they're in my room making it even beautiful.
There is still no income. The body's health is suffering severely due to being stuck living in unsafe conditions.
Hey I'm still looking for work.
I've applied to a lot of places in my area and I'm getting nothing.
I'm a programmer at heart, but I've also been looking for regular entry-level jobs because there haven't been any coding positions open at my level as far as I could tell.
If you can offer me a job, it might save my butt. And if you can't offer me a job, could you at least share this post?
I live 30 minutes away from Bellevue if that helps.
Day four: vs
While some issues are being discussed, one isnt HECS DEBT. We can talk about having a beer with the Prime ministerial candidates but not EDUCATION costs and spiralling debt.
While we’re at it. UNEMPLOYED? Has the living allowance been raised? At all, does it match inflation? Is it below the poverty line?

Today is #TransDayOfVisibility
I live in #TX and I can't afford to leave. I'm also #unemployed.
If you believe in #ReproductiveJustice, and that #abortion is #healthcare, please also vocally advocate for access to gender-affirming healthcare.
The #government must not have the #power to control what people can or cannot do with their own bodies.
Today's "I'm laid off and bored" project.
Figured a torii gate for my desk would be really nice. So why spend $10 and buy one when I could 1) Pinch the skin between my thumb and finger between a hammer and chisel. 2) Make a mess everywhere. 3) Aggravate my lower back pain by bending over chiseling. 4) Realize how much of a pain in the ass cutting a mortice in a round dowel is.
Thankfully wood filler exists.
I suppose I should do this now it's the weekend.
I am officially #unemployed as of 17.00 today.
I intend to remain so until I am once more able to write code for myself. (Or, I guess, until I decide that it's not going to happen and I find another career).
Time for a Luny Rant (you know a problem shared.). So I applied to go back to my previous job (Medium friendly company owned by large corp. Group), had the interviews and did well. Everyone in the company wants me back. But the final offer has to be signed of by the owner of the group, as he likes to micro-manage everything. Its been six weeks since the CTO signed off my offer. The managers in the company have tried escalations and diplomacy to get him to sign off. It is very frustrating as I'm currently unemployed due to redundancy and only getting a few interests in the market. I'd really like to go back, its work I'm good at, should never have left but its a long complicated story why. #rant #unemployed #frustration
if i had any money i would participate in the Nationwide #US #Boycott

The job I thought I had lined up just evaporated from the labour market. So it looks like I am going to have a lot of time to experience spring of 2025. Remember me if you need a fun informal speaker, commercially or for charity!
