    It’s not even casual internet surfing anymore. While looking for a job several months ago, I had to create a new account on every. Single. Fucking. Application.

          Agonizing. I’m starting to understand why some people choose to buck the system and live off the land in the wilderness.

        I never used Workday - why do you need different accounts? Are there per-account limits you need to bypass? Or do multiple companies use their software and you need a different account for each company?

          The latter. Every time I have to job hunt, it’s mentally exhausting from how frustrating it is. I have over 90 logins to various job sites and that isn’t counting the ones using Google login or the ones I just let my browser save and I never copied to my password library.

          If I ever have to job hunt again I’m printing out paper resumes and hitting the pavement like it’s 1980 again.

    Don’t forget mailing list nags that are engineered to pop up right when you are reading the third sentence of the article.

    Right after the BS cookie popup.

      Or I click a link to story about a cat stuck in a tree and it takes me to small, local newspaper I’ve never heard of called “The Sawfly Gazette - serving South Western Maine since 1975!”, then it immediately tells me I’ve hit my “article limit” and must subscribe for $14.95.
