Escaping Inceldom feels a lot lot applying for jobs
Every time I read the job description for an entry level position they require the equivalent of 5 years of work experience in the field plus grade A social skills.

This is surprisingly sane and unhateful for an incel. I suspect that Brad's idea of "entry level" isn't , and that he may have never showed up for social skills class... and yet since this is the first we've heard of Brad, maybe there's hope for him. Get out of there, if you still can!
You are never going to develop any social skills on line in Mom's basement. Get out and meet real people, otherwise you'll spend the rest of your life having sex with electronic media, rather than real warm bodies.
Actually, this is a completely reasonable comparison. Incels are, for the most part, terrible with social skills. People who, for whatever reason, didn't develop good social skills as a pre-teen are at a major disadvantage at developing them later. Practicing on your peers isn't exactly easy when many of them refuse to interact with you much because you have the apparent maturity of an abrasive child, and most of the rest just tolerate you as someone who's hopeless. That's damaging to one's self-esteem, often leading to crippling social anxiety, which would make one's progress even more difficult.
There are resources for adults and teens deficient in social skills, but most people don't know about them and wouldn't know where to look. And the results are not instant, but can take years. This isn't much help for those who are desperate for normal interactions *right now*.
That's the one, and only one, aspect of typical "inceldom" that is sympathetic. The rest is toxic garbage.

Because you see all relationships as transactions.
You get a job saying ‘I will do X work if you will pay Y salary.’
You THINK a girlfriend is the same. ‘I will simp THIS much for you if you’ll touch my peepee THAT many times.’

Well, a relationship IS a social interaction, you do need a certain set of social skills. Not the same set, plenty of people will accept different areas for you to be competent in. But something.And all sex-havers had their virgin experience.
