I agree, it was a long article and at first I was with him but after the first few hundred words the author seems to start complaining that his obviously sufficient work is not sufficient to get him a job which is nothing more than a logical fallacy and having a slightly big head, it says nothing about the wider job market as a whole.
Indeed it was very entertaining, relatable even, and at times a complete wish-fullfillment slasher flick!
But it kinda (definitely :D) misses the point that it itself set up at the beginning with the fancy FRED graphs ... almost in the same way as the author misses the point of (and thus the required choreography for successful) interviews.
(As others comments here mentioned that he seems to lack the self-awareness to correctly position himself on the bell curve meme, which gives him a lot of consternation.)
Strong opinions are great when you know when to deploy them :)))
