The market economy seen from a job applicant's point of view

If you are really good at something and expect a decent salary, or at least a living wage, along with a reasonable degree of job security, they will never offer you the job.

If you are dreadful at something, would do it extremely badly but they can get away with paying you the equivalent of pig swill (and they can treat you like pig swill in the process), and the chances are that you will starve to death very quickly on what they are paying you - then you are virtually guaranteed the job.

All hail the wondrous market economy!
