       Man, we keep having accumulating archivist/librarian layoffs happening at major private universities, at OCLC, at state libraries/archives, etc. I feel like the archives-interested public is aware of what's going down in the federal government but there is very little awareness of how much it's spreading outside of the feds. This shit is so bleak. I really don't know what the future of the profession looks like and that scares the shit out of me.

       @TeamMidwest Librarians are easily replaceable with cheap H1-b labor or part time students that restock shelves. Everything is computers now so overpaid roasties are not necessary.

       @verita84 @TeamMidwest Imagine getting a master's degree to shush people all day and return books to shelves. Glorified blockbuster employee but books instead of VHS tapes.

       @TeamMidwest the only thing this indicates is your desire for a recession because it gets you one step closer to what you've been told to want politically.  no one cares about the recession you're trying to whimper into existence while 45 cats watch you feverishly masturbate in a windowless apartment.  sorry about your barren womb.
