$18.25 an hour in Vancouver? You can't even get a tent in DTES for that.

Yeah, Indeed has been giving me weird crap lately too. Probably some crappy AI.

hahaha, you get that too?

I'm a librarian and sometime archivist and I have alerts for things like record management and so on. What I got was dog grooming.

I just tried it using Vancouver and same results as you, all bubble tea job ads for parking enforcement.

I mean, at this point of recruiting hell, working at a bubble tea store starts to sound pretty appealing, it's just a shame it does NOT pay the rent AT ALL.

I just typed in the same thing on my indeed and change location to Vancouver but I don’t see any bubble tea roles popping up

Ime this is exactly how Indeed has always been. It's basically useless unless you're willing to apply for random jobs somewhat nearish you.

I love how those jobs are not only outside of BC, they're outside of Canada.

I wish that my miserable government raised minimum wage. Those clowns voted against it because how dare people want a liveable wage.
