Atlanta is known as a ‘Black Mecca.’ Jobs data tell a different story.

Also transplants do this shyt so backwards. Places like atlanta you can't just show up and get a job.
You need to have a job when you arrive there or have a job relocate you there.
Just showing up there with no job man that is a bad decision.

Honestly, ATL's economy just isn't big enough to accommodate all the transplants and grew way too fast in the 2000's. Most of my fam lives down there and it was way easier to find white collar jobs in the 80s-90s but with ATL being (for a while) the only large economic metro in the southeast (not counting FL), all grads from the SEC schools and down try to get jobs there so its just way too competitive when you add in the transplants. Cities in NC (and Nashville) are coming up so now I think that will eventually be less of an issue. But the cost of living is so much higher now in ATL it might not matter.
breh....
Show me a picture of 1 house for that price. Just 1. Even for 90K.

I been had been saying this. There are very few jobs for people who want to do work on professional level. The jobs they do have they cater to folks who aren't even here. I got a couple recruiter friends for tech and business. They struggle to find people to fill those roles, due to the nature of companies down here. You can't just move here wit no job, when people here are still struggling to get one and they been here.
Unemployment numbers are always farce
Having a min wage job or a little part time with no benefits doesn't mean ish is sweet
Ah well 100k jobs are in abundance according to my.coli brehs

My homie was hiring us, we were performing and cacs were still mad and got rid of him. Cacs don't want to work with too many Blacks. Just facts. That's not an Atlanta thing either.

He should have moved to Chicago, NY or London and made some good bucks and then moved back to ATL.
Ain’t no way I’m going to a good school and flipping burgers after. I refuse.
But I don’t want to sound ignorant. I don’t know his ultimate situation.
Atlanta economy is fine... for others. But for us nikkas, it's full. Over full. At this point, nepotism and being extremely good with someone is the only way.

I went to DC. Best decision I've made. Went from a nobody nikka to the big man on the block. I understand most folks can't do what I did as it takes support from family but Atlanta is a dead end to me. Sure, some of my nikkas eventually broke through but not many of us ever did.

Last time I check us New Yorkers still run this.
Charlotte from what I understand is the bunker for NYCs finance sector.
Meaning if someone came and blew up Wall Street I strongly believe Charlotte would be the place to go on the East Coast.
Miami being another as many NYC firms have rented out office space in Brickell.
I wonder why more people with degrees who have to settle for entry-level work don't become bank tellers. Theres a bank on every corner, I feel like they are always hiring. I did it for a couple months...looks better on a resume than fast food or department store. And if you get "stuck" there you can be a financial consultant or branch manager within a year or 2...
This what folks who don't work in corporate america don't understand. It ain't even just black folks saying this. Latins and asians say the same shyt in corporate America. They bytch about how they try to get their friends family on and their resumes get thrown in the trash.

I'm just saying we've always been dependent on their economy to go further in life. The scraps from the table of W.S.....now those scraps are getting fewer and farther in between.Since when have white people taken care of black people....
Keep refusing to learn a trade.
