This one is heartbreaking.
He spent 25 YEARS at Adobe.
Senior Software Quality Engineer.
More than 15 years of quality engineering experience.
Laid off in August 2025.
Then he spent more than a year looking for another job in tech.
Applications filtered out.
Recruiters ghosted him.
Interviews that never happened.
Eventually, he gave up.
His next career?
Driving a school bus.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with driving a school bus. It’s important, honest work.
But something is deeply broken when an American with 25 years at one of the world’s premier software companies can’t find another job in tech while we’re simultaneously told America has such a shortage of tech talent that employers need hundreds of thousands of foreign-worker positions.
This is what gets lost in the H-1B debate.
These aren’t statistics.
They’re people.
Before we search the world for another tech worker, shouldn’t Americans like him at least get a fair shot?
Even the Amish can’t escape.
They go to private property, park wherever they want, walk around like they own the place, then talk as loudly as possible in their obnoxious language.
You can go to the remotest places possible. There’s still no avoiding it.
@WallStreetApes Dont forget the gas is burning faster, the food companies give us way less at a higher cost, car insurance is like a car payment now in any vicinity of a city, etc, etc.
@ladadeeladada4@shipwreckshow My daughter loves butter noodles. I boil some hot water, pour that water in the thermos to heat the thermos up, then I make the noodles, pour out the hot water from the thermos, and immediately put in the noodles and add butter and close. She says it is still good at lunch.
Food Budget is one of my favorite things to talk about. But let's be real, this isn't about burritos.
We, a family of four, making more money than we ever have, cooking all our meals at home, still struggle.
Prices are too high period. They know that but they're trying to deflect to get you to blame anyone else but them.
Black African stabs a White man in the neck while he was walking with his baby, partner & dog.
He tries to move his baby away from the attacker but collapses.
They laugh as he bleeds out.
No value for human life whatsoever.
Truly horrific 😔
These are NOT random events, this is an OBVIOS pattern of behaviour that we see daily all across the West right now.
This behaviour is supported by data, stats, evidence & by what we witness every single day.
Import the 3rd world, become the third world.
Enough is enough.
The boomer generation will stop at nothing until our country is fully raped and destroyed.
A steady diet of Fox News, Facebook memes, and megachurch sermons brought us here.
Truly a disgrace
Black students gathered several white students to a specific spot on the playground and forced them to state ‘Black Lives Matter’ against their will.
Those who refused were beaten.
The school didn't want to release the video but a lawsuit was filed to obtain it.
