I don’t know if this is a valid thing to be angry about, but I’m going to be angry anyway.

I spent over five years training in my field. I have a considerable amount of practical experience, yet when seeking employment, I am finding that more and more employers want a candidate who is able to perform multiple jobs under the salary of one single worker, oftentimes offering minimum wage (at least, this is the case in my area).

For example, today I saw an employer who, instead of hiring a Graphic Designer, Photographer and Videographer, wants to hire one person who has over three years’ experience in all three fields to do all three things**.** You’re also expected to mentor junior members of staff at no additional wage. This should be three, or at the very least, two separate employment opportunities, but instead, they’ve rolled it into one and added the responsibility of mentoring juniors.

Am I being silly for thinking this is a ridiculous ask for a business that can definitely afford to employ additional staff, paid above minimum wage? I keep seeing similar job listings more and more whilst searching for something new and it’s really starting to piss me off.
