Perhaps there are others here who also work in the IT sector and/or have strong connections to the topic:

Currently, I am finding it increasingly difficult to continue working in my field, but in general and not explicitly related to my workplace.
Professionally, I deal with the topic of AI on a daily basis, but also to such an extent that issues such as professional recognition and even promotions depend on excessive use.
AI undoubtedly has its (sometimes really good) uses. Nevertheless, the ethics of its application on the current global scale seem extremely difficult to me.
So difficult that I don't know if I want to remain in this profession with a clear conscience, because I am no longer an IT consultant or developer, but rather feel like an AI coordinator whose job it is to mediate cleanly between humans and machines.
I am currently observing how jobs are increasingly being outsourced to AI. Either actively, by no longer advertising the positions, or passively, by dismissing everything that can be replaced via personnel interviews with seemingly flimsy justifications (you can always find a way to get rid of someone Unwanted).
And global experience shows how wonderful this outsourcing of work is: work becomes less valuable, company owners pocket the dividends, and the social divide grows ever wider.

I chose this profession to solve problems and help people, to specialize in consulting and service, to actively help people, to identify challenges that I am familiar with, and to support them. Even when the day was long and difficult, I could go home with a clear conscience. Because when the problem was solved, my customers were grateful and happy—and so was I, because I was able to help someone.
Today, I have become part of the problem. I no longer help to support people, but to replace them—and I am just waiting to be replaced myself.
I used to have the desire to continue my education in my field, to live my life and to learn. Now I no longer know why I should.

The future and the existence I had once envisioned, the “healthy world,” are no longer there.
And in the evenings, when darkness descends, I can hardly sleep. With my eyes closed, I lie awake, feeling paralyzed, as if my thoughts are constantly running into a wall. I don't dare talk about it with those around me because I only see myself as a burden on the world. I think no one needs my problems—everyone is struggling with their own, and I am just another burden, another eyesore in an already fragile world.
How can I still represent the hope and confidence of a world that is dying, when I am a correspondent of its murder?

This is rich. They hinting that women (especially married) , blacks and rural America don’t know how to get an ID…..

I'm sinking more and more into one of my sleep escapism-depressions again. Everything is so discouraging and seems so hopeless....

I can barely get myself to leave the bed lately. I lack any motivation and elan to do anything.
Perpetually trapped in task paralysis.

On workdays I push myself to still give 110% despite constantly asking "what am I doing it for its not like it's fruitful for me". Work drains me so much I can't find the energy to look for new jobs after hours.
And on Weekends I am still drained and barely drag myself out of bed after sleeping for 12hr, then I end up on the couch staring into my phone screen doomscrolling, because I can't get myself to sit on my PC and look for job offers because I know there are barely any that are suitable for me. But pursuing my hobbies makes me feel guilty because "I should spend this time on looking for jobs".
So I just sit there on the couch trapped by invisible chains of guilt and discourage while I'm hoping for the unlikely miracle that a Recruiter will find my job profile and it's the perfect match for both sides. And that the world politics wills suddenly be bearable again. But with the current leaders pfft finding the Amber-room again is more likely than having a secure and happy future.
Thats why I keep asking myself: What future am even doing it for?

I don’t fully understand her answer/response.

Epstein Files dropped and almost every celebrity and politician is in it.
Trump isn't going to save you, Clinton isn't going to save you, Elon is definitely not gonna come save you, Jay Z isn't going to save you nor is Noam Chomsky and Stephen Hawking.
But nothing will be done, like always. We're in too deep. The world is too complacent and brainwashed with Door dash, Pornhub and all of its smaller partners, netflix, tiktok, instagram, YouTube, google, internet memes, chat gpt, videogames, drugs, weed, alcohol, meds and all your dumb fucking anime providing endless stimulation to make sure no one thinks for themselves or has any second to self reflect.
People care more about getting an orgasm, not being bored and being comfortable than doing anything about anything.
I for one welcome an alien race, or God, the universe or war to kill us all. Wash this planet of the worst species ever created.
Cleanse us of our wretched, putrid souls and end our suffering.

And fuck your politics if you don't believe any of this and think that your favorite president you suck off is not in any way part of this. They are. This is not a theory anymore.
The higher ups are pedophilic, child molesting, murdering cannibals.
Marquis De Sade called all of this out with the Libertines back in his day when he used to participate in these parties and orgies. He was imprisoned, though he was a fucking pervert as well, he at least had the balls to call it out so the world would know.
And the elite are mocking us. Laughing at us and watching the shit show we call our economy and society.
They're conspiring against us and always have been since the beginning of civilization.

And this is only the tip of the iceberg.
These are only the files that have been released. There's still a ton more that goes even deeper. I can write pages and pages about this shit. I read the black book back in 2020 and i told people that modern presidents and politicians and celebrities were in there but no one wanted to believe it, especially when it came to Trump. He is not on your side or for the people, let alone, poor people. You'd have to be blind, dumb, and ignorant to believe he even cares about you.
I am tired of this left wing, right wing bullshit when both wings of the government are part of the same bird and both parties are in bed together, keeping us down and out.

God is not coming to punish them or save us.

Stop trying to excuse the behavior of these rich politicians/pedophiles.
Stop blaming the world's problems on immigrants, racial minorities, lgbtq, and people who look and believe different from Christian, and heterosexual belief systems.
Your enemy is not regular people who believe in the left or regular people who believe in the right;
Our enemies are the cocksuckers that built and rigged the system, aka, the billionaires, politicians, the corporations and the banks.
But keep pointing your fingers at your neighbors and thinking they're the ones destroying your life and that you're one of the good guys who knows the truth.
You keep believing that...
Stay asleep.

Anyways, i have said my piece.
Keep your eyes closed, your mind closed, keep getting high and drunk, keep posting memes, keep thirst trapping and simping.
Carry on.
Let us all walk hand in hand, obliviously to our self annihilation as the hideous, fucked up, delusional children of an indifferent God we all are.

Well, the media has wasted no time with Black History Month. I've seen an article about a NBA player who claims he felt disrespected as a black man because a white referee called a foul on him. Another article claiming Shakespeare was a black Jewish woman. Two or 3 more on how whitey is evil. With the media complicit regarding some of the violent "protests' going on in the country, you'd think they'd had their fill of identity politics and divisiveness...but no. They are habitual line steppers.

This is so discourageing! Of all the job offers that I can find none are Jobs that I would actually wanna take if I actually did get the offer, because all require commuting over an hour or moving to I city that I would never wanna live in. This is just downright depressing! In the past 3 weeks I have not even seen one offer that was in my current location or even close by. I just want a new job not an entire life re-orientation!

It is just so sad that we live in such a career-driven double standard society where it is totally normalized that as a young person, you HAVE to be ready give up your ENTIRE LIFE and the place you picked to be your home ANYTIME to find a new job. But on the same time you are expected to be ready to settle and have a family from 30 onwards. And with a family you are often still required to move your entire family to a new place for a new job and it's totally normalized!

And overall economy is just shit and the field I work in is not doing well despite the fact that it was flourishing during the pandemic.

I blame everything on Merz at this point because I need a scapegoat to vent my anger!

That PD Department, especially, the Chief, should be sanctioned for allowing terrorists to destroy their cities and businesses and attacking law enforcement in the middle of the night.

Arrest the entire leadership of the city and in the local PD Department.

Please respect my pronouns!

Hmm either the company I work for has just given me some incredible leverage to practially demand a raise or the whole thing has a big catch and they hope that I am to gullible to see it.

They recently laid off 20 % of the employees becasue of funding problems. Unfortunateley they also fired the person who was appointed officer for biological safetey... Now they desperateley need another employee to become that. But there is only a handfull of people who can thake the position as it has special requirements. Most suitable people don't want it because it is a hassle. I am amongst those few suited ones and they just asked me yesterday if I were interested in getting that extra qualification.
TBH I don't really want the hassle that comes with it and I am planning to leave the company as soon as I find a better job anyway. But the qualification will look very hot on my resume...
I have been fighting for a wage increase. Since I know they are desparate, I could practically bribe them into giving me a BIG fat raise or I will just not do it.
What do I have to loose? They can only say no then I'll also say no too. So what? It is a voluntary extra position, they cannot fire me for declining the responsibility. For me, things will stay same and they'll still have no one to be Biological safetey officer. Their probelm.

But I am not trusting them anymore so I kinda smell a rat (not the cute cuddly kind that smells like love and popcorn)...what could it be???
Will I have to give up my project lead position? Is it a degradation in disguise? WHAt could be the catch???
Time to do some research....
