"Here’s what is notably not being said to the young and desperate: you
are more than your inability to find a job. Your value to a potential
employer is not the sole measure of your worth as a person. If you can
find only precarious, exhausting, depressing work, or if you can’t find
work at all, that doesn’t mean you are useless, lazy, or a “waste of
space”."

Important words.

Via Andi S and Mz Maau.

Cheers,
