I'm not unemployed or anything, but today i went to go volunteer at habitat/restore. I wasn't super chatty, i just took the tasks they gave me, finished said tasks as best I could, didn't chat too much with the other people, and kept to myself. Literally i spent 2-3 hours volunteering, and the manager woman offered me a job as a truck driver getting items from customers, a paying job too.

This whole hurr durr i cant find a job is complete bullshit, most kids today are just completely lazy fucks. Was the job offer glamorous? Fuck no, its a truck driver position. But it also means some extra income on the side, and its under the table too, so yeah, really nice. But, it's a job, and it pays, and i get to see if i like the truck driving job before i commit full time to it. I completely do NOT expect this job to sustain me, its just a fun thing to do on the side.

But i guess, its becoming so rare to find non idiots who actually do a job without using their job as the gossip room, so when you see someone actually doing their job, it comes off as shocking or something. They expect their job to hand them a 6 figure salary with full benefits for doing a bottom of the barrel job

Worked a trade for years. Every helper i had would come to a screeching halt if their phone rang or they got a text. I told them " if thats not NASA or Hollywood dont answer it!".

People get mad at me for not answering my cell phone from a text or call quick enough.

I once went looking for a job and got two jobs in two places at the same time. The problem that today's useless retards think they are going to live like YouTubers, celebrities, and other idiots they follow on social media, but real life is nothing like social media.

Why would you even want that? My wife and I absolutely despise the Jones mentality since its not us. I want my beat up truck, and my shit owned with as little debt as possible

I only worked in one for a while, a few days and quit, and went to another, and also worked a few days, and left... LOL. Years after that I worked in IT.

IT is soul crushing but the money is so good. Some companies pay upwards of 200,000/yr, i almost want to apply work there for a year or so, and fuck off to some third world country after

This whole hurr durr i cant find a job is complete bullshit, most kids today are just completely lazy fucks.

Kids are so fucking lazy today. We have some warehouse positions open and having a ton of trouble getting applicants. We even offered to pay them to come to an interview and 90% of the ones that schedule an interview don't even show up ... to a paid fucking interview. Finally had to hire somebody, so hired the kid that did show up. This kid is balls on retarded as fuck. The dude can't work more than 4 hours. It's literally not possible. He starts having panic attacks and anxiety.

I know the kids are all faggy and supid today, but I just can't understand how it happened like flipping a fucking switch. This is all new in just the last 10 years.

I don't believe you. I've been working manufacturing for the past 15 years. The working atmosphere has gotten significantly worse than when I started, and I don't blame people for being unwilling to put up with bullshit from employers.

In my last job I had 3 cameras on my area at all times. If I were to spend more than two minutes waiting on the machine or go to the bathroom at an unapproved time, I would get a write up. Forget about actually being on your phone, if it was even in your pocket, it was a write up.

That shit is insane. People aren't robots to be used until failure and then tossed in the trash, and now they are starting to learn that. I can only hope it gets worse for (((employers))).

Edit: Oh and that was on a 50 hr week minimum we were more often than not expected to put in 60s. No small surprise I told them to fuck off.

I climbed cell towers for 70 hours a week for $14 an hour. Tell me about your terrible working conditions in an air conditioned warehouse @ 15$ an hour again?

Ever been lit up by wasps 400' up a ladder?

Think it's the worst thing in the world not being able to go to the bathroom when you want? Shit off the side of a tower and come back to me about how unfair your working conditions are.

You sound like a fucking pussy to me.

[–] 1 pt

So you made $14/hr 40 years ago when it was actually worth something and boomers hadn't been able to fuck the economy 6 ways from Sunday? You sound like you're full of shit

I wouldn't base your characterization on the current market. 40% of people make more on the UI on steroids than they would otherwise, plus eviction moratorium, plus student loan forbearance... a lot of the workforce is being payed not to work, lest they catch the flu.

The rest, those smart or driven enough to be employed, will gravitate towards the higher-paying or more comfortable positions. I'd rather wait tables than work in a warehouse.

Everyone's different. I'd rather lose my house and starve than work in anything that requires dealing with insane customers. In a warehouse you can just do your thing in peace.

He starts having panic attacks and anxiety.

Same reason why the other fucktards never showed up. They've been conditioned their whole lives to believe they have a disorder by their single moms.

This is all new in just the last 10 years.

1st time I came up against this stupidity was a single mom circa 2000. Jumped shit when she forgot to give her kid Ritalin. "He's so unfocused when he doesn't get his Ritalin."

Was sitting next to my dad at the time and I said to the lady why don't you just hit him upside his head like they used to do when we were kids he'll be focused instantly.

My dad spit out his coffee.

What if we all do have disorders, but the situation isn't made better by being aware of them and using them as excuses. Maybe the people who do best in life are people who have their various flaws, but do their best because they have no reason to think any less should be expected of them.

Millennials. The worst generation.

[–] 5 pts (edited )

The problem with boomers is they grew up in such a better environment and their egos prevent them from seeing that millenials have to work several times harder than they did just to be able to earn a very basic living with very small savings.

Boomer times - jobs paid more, living costs lower, more small businesses, more real vacation time, no technology and bosses expecting you to work after you got home, the actual concept of a "retirement" plan, more white people and white coworkers who had a sense of duty, stronger families and more people with inheritance from their parents, a savings account that wouldn't be wiped out by a single ambulance ride, normal education tuition rates, a future to work toward rather than the economic collapse we're facing...

Boomers bitch and bitch about how all ya gotta do is pull yerself up by yor bootstraps and they say this shit while they're getting full pension and retirement to sit on their ass for the rest of their life and go fishing. This isn't the 1970's. Those of us who work hard as hell struggle to keep up with inflation, higher costs, paying all the welfare and handouts, paying for all your medicare costs and Social Security (which we'll get the crumbs of), and dealing with insane amounts of stress due to technology and constant distractions. Not to mention abusive corporations which have destroyed the middle class and most small businesses.

Maybe step out of your fantasy and into younger people's shoes for once and see that we don't have a bright rewarding future ahead of us as you did when you were working.

Adding to this boomers think that school is the same today as it was for them.

They are living in ivory towered gated communities in a sea of declining humanity

Fuck you for lumping a whole generation together, what about yours? Im a fuckin boomer and have worked a physical job all my life and will till I die, fuck you you little judgemental pussy.

and dealing with insane amounts of stress due to technology and constant distractions.

There's an easy way to solve this.

Ask me how.

The anti-generation. Entitled, narcissist morons. No respect for hard work and no understanding of money.

Each generation is worse than the one that came before. If you wonder why, look to demographic shifts.

You’re angry at the wrong group of people. Staying your “no value of money” comment because it begins there. Money is the tool that’s preventing you from retirement and living a full life.

Getting angry at kids for learned behaviour from their jewed surroundings seems harsh.

They divide us by generation. They divide us by religion. They've corrupted our men into giving women the right to vote which has lead to dividing us by gender.

I don't think it's smart to go down this "oh fuck this entire demograph of my own people" path. Know who your enemy is. It isn't grandpa, Jr, sis or your religious nutjob aunt.

About to.go find some homeless guy.

They don't want to work either.

There's good money in driving trucks. I'm assuming it's a non CDL box truck given that you were offered the position.

[–] 1 pt

I'd drive a truck. I love driving, maybe it's time to get that CDL.

[–] 3 pts

Good money in it. I make 90,000/yr doing it and could make more but this job fits my situation. The best part of having a CDL is you can have a good paying job tomorrow. They don't hire you. You hire the company. They need you. I'm not sure why OP thinks driving trucks is bottom of the barrel.

Absolutely. If you're a diesel mechanic you already know more than half of these clowns on the road.

I don't know much about it but it seems like some of the oil trucking jobs pay like crazy. Really high demand.

As an X IRS agent you don't know how lucky you are get a cash job. Just hope you can sleep well at night knowing you are not paying for fat niggers get EBT and live in subsidy housing.

Why didn't you take the job?

This whole hurr durr i cant find a job is complete bullshit

Literally every single restaurant in the entire country is hiring. Ever Lowe's is hiring. All manufacturing is hiring. Let the lazy sacks of shit starve as far as I'm concerned.
