Branding has always been capitalism's longest running joke. A Starbuck's coffee and a Racetrac coffee will literally taste the same. Yet you'll pay x4 more with one brand vs the gas station. Don't fall for the 'luxury brand' myth.

There is literally zero professionalism from job recruiters these days. Fuck the whole industry of staffing agencies.
