I'm so sick of the hyper push for specialization, it may be efficient but it's soul crushing. IDK maybe it's ADHD but I'd rather not do any one thing for more than 2 weeks.

What hyper push? I can't think of a time in history ever when somebody with two weeks of experience was in demand

Most people got jobs with no experience, or even education less than 40 years ago as long as they showed up and acted confident. Nowadays entry level internships want MScs and years of work xp with something that was invented yesterday

You mistake 'businesses were more willing to take a chance' for 'businesses didn't want experience'. Unless it's a bullshit retail job, anybody with no experience is a net burden their first month.
