    Hell even without that hiring is really really hard. Im the IT manager for my company and I’m looking to hire for some level 1 help desk type positions. They don’t need to be super experienced, but they do need to know things like “what is group policy” or “how would you troubleshoot this hypothetical issue”. Basically they should be able to pass the Comptia A+ test, even if they dont actually have it.

    My God I got over 600 applications within a business week! The vast majority of those applicants were from people with no experience, lots of experience in a different field!

    Like I was getting these applicants from people who have 15 years of plumbing or machining experience. Or people who clearly haven’t been able to hold down a job (if you bounce from minimum wage job to minimum wage job every other month, that’s a bad look). Or on the other end of the spectrum, I was getting people with decades of sysadmin experience applying too.

    I had to start having HR filter the top and bottom out of the stack so I could actually see useful data.



  • I “technically” have busses near my house. The bus stop is on the corner and the grocery store is about 2 miles away. No brainer right?

    Nope. Because the bus only comes every 45 minutes (according to the schedule, good luck if you trust it) and it takes 2.5hrs to go from my stop to the one next to the grocery store.

    Or I can just walk the 25 mins or whatever it takes me to walk there.




  • That’s because the official instructions say to install it through snap. Which is just snap install blender. You may have problems with flatpacks (I don’t to be fair) but that might be outside of the scope of this comment. Or just go to the app store and download it haha

    And if you really want to install the deb package there are instructions to add the PPA.
