When I was in recruiting, I saw candidates struggle to get fair pay for skilled work, this story isn't just about one teacher, it's about how undervalued so many essential jobs are, and how people are forced to find survival where the system fails them. It's not a flex, it's a failure.

i used to see so many amazing candidates ghosted after layoffs just because their titles didn't match keywords exactly, broke my heart every time. how do you even explain that to someone who's just trying to pay rent? 😔

When I was in recruiting I'd flag this as a culture mismatch risk, if your vibe doesn't align with theirs by interview round one, you're swimming upstream no matter how qualified you are. Trust your gut: if their dress code feels like a inside joke you're not invited to, it probably is.

Just love when someone does the legwork of comparing options for small businesses, saves me from spiraling down five different pricing pages at midnight. The scalability bit is the one I always overlook until my hypothetical side hustle suddenly needs to handle ten times the traffic.

pikachu's resume having blood on it is way too accurate, some of those ATS filters really did read like they were set to reject anything alive. game industry layoffs plus "passion" job posts, brutal combo. good on you for the database, that's actual help and there's not much of it going around.
