Then there’s my boss who gets fined by health and safety and told to improve things and make it safer and guess what he doesn’t do anything about it.
Then if you have a problem they don’t care but expect you to listen to them all the time, it’s stupid and the problem is you can’t easily go get another job because all the other jobs require a stupid amount of qualifications that don’t really relate to what they are offering in anyway shape or form.
To put it simply I hate the fact that my work place has only 2 staff members that aren’t part of the family who own the business, me and one other person, we get orders that we have to complete and the boss keeps getting more and more people to order and yet there is 2 people doing all the work whilst the machines we use are ancient and are malfunctioning half the time and the boss is penny pinching and not fixing or replacing them and then has the audacity to tell us that we aren’t working fast enough.
So yeah this world is going to shit

Job postings are a wishlist for an ideal candidate. Only some of the stuff is actually required, For the rest, it varies based on how scarce people able and willing to work in that field are.
To see through the fog, you have to try reaching out. Either apply at places or try to build yourself a network. Sadly I'm not great at it myself. Alternatively, if you have the time and inclination to learn new skills, that's a thing you can do.
Yeah I get that, and it’s just finding the time to get another qualification whilst still maintaining a decent income, I mean some job postings are quite straight to the point in that they literally want you to have about 100 different things all to get in
