"Despite the fact that she'd "never really touched a power tool before," Ralls took to mechanical insulating quickly. She said the work is interesting and well-paid, and it gives her a sense of satisfaction to be contributing to climate solutions.

Ashley Duncan, of the B.C. Insulators [union which] partnered with Youth Climate Corps B.C. on the training program, said the climate link seems to attract young people who are considering the trades as a career."

#Inflation fears drove much of the downturn. Respondents expect inflation a year from now to run at a 5% rate, up 0.1 percentage point from the mid-month reading & a 0.7 percentage point acceleration from February. 🚨🚨At the 5-year horizon, the outlook now is for 4.1%, the first time the survey has had a reading above 4% since February 1993.🚨🚨

#US #stocks are falling steeply Friday following discouraging updates on inflation & how much US households may be willing to spend given all the #uncertainty about #Trump’s escalating #TradeWar.

The S&P 500 was down 1.5% in midday trading. That would make this the 5th losing week in the last 6 for the index….

The Dow was down 520 points, or 1.2%, as of 11:30AM ET, & the Nasdaq composite was 2.1% lower.

"Clinicians warn that the changes will degrade mental #health treatment at the #VA., which already has severe staffing shortages...

The #DOGE cuts have already sparked #chaos & confusion within the sprawling agency, which provides care to more than nine million #veterans. The #Trump admn has said it plans to eliminate 80,000 VA #jobs, and a first round of terminations has halted some #research studies & slashed support staff."

Text from article: In more than three dozen interviews, current and recently terminated mental health workers at the V.A. described a period of rapid, chaotic behind-the-scenes change. Many agreed to speak on the condition of anonymity because they want to continue to serve veterans, and feared retribution from the Trump administration. Clinicians warn that the changes will degrade mental health treatment at the V.A., which already has severe staffing shortages. Some expect to see a mass exodus of sought-after specialists, like psychiatrists and psychologists. They expect wait times to increase, and veterans to eventually seek treatment outside the agency. “Psychotherapy is a very private endeavor,” said Ira Kedson, the president of AFGE local 310 at the Coatesville V.A. Medical Center in Pennsylvania. “It’s supposed to be a safe place, where people can talk about their deepest, darkest fears and issues.” Veterans, he said, trust that what they tell therapists is confidential. “If they can’t trust us to do that, I think that a sizable number of them will withdraw from treatment,” he said.

Hi guys, today I found out I basically got an eviction notice for May 31st. This is, while i'm still searching for a job, so I'm not doing so good atm.

Does any one of you know of any jobs and/or affordable housing (looking around the 600-900 euro rent ballpark, and around a 2600 pre-tax euro salary, a month.)? Please let me know. Travel is difficult, I basically only got a bicycle, so in or around the town Veenendaal or Ede is preferred, though if you also know housing next to a job, then that's fine as well.

I also got a Paypal if you want to support me directly, paypal.me/Spennorex

My DMs here should be open in case you got any questions, or send me a reply here.

🚨"Europe just canceled $25B in US military deals. NATO allies are planning to replace American l'ship. Japan, France & the UK are prepping deployments w/o us. And now Trump says allies only get ‘toned-down’ jets bc ‘someday they’re not our ally.'
News flash: They’re already walking away."

As part of a job application I was asked to take a "skills assessment" provided by a third party.

I read the privacy policy and this stood out: "...assessment answers, video, webcam stills, and [audio] recordings are shared with customers or potential future employers matching your skill sets and interests."

So, not just between me and hiring company.

Just being on the job hunt is a privacy nightmare nowadays. This seems a bit too far for my tastes.

I wonder what all the Uber and Lyft drivers are going to do for money when those companies go full robotaxi? It's already a "last resort" kinda way to make money. I don't see the advantage of throwing more people out of work to improve executive/shareholder profits... 🤔 #jobs #automation
