Kindly remember this thread when you folks discuss the “unavailability” of jobs for millennials. There really are jobs which go unfilled by US citizens. Get it now?

My late father, at the age of 12, was lent out to other farmers as a hired man so that he could send money back to his family.

“Jeez, I was raised to NEVER quit a job without having another one lined up.”

Exactly!!! So what do they do, go home to Momma and cry? My step-sons did a couple of times until I finally had enough and told them to grow up and GET OUT. Come back if you really need something.

It is too bad that I am no longer in high esteem. ha ha ha

Well they cannot exist in an environment that doesn’t cater to five year olds like college does.

Welcome to the REAL WORLD.

Quitting and you, the hard working taxpayer are gooting the bill.
Time to overhaul the disability legal machine.

My dad was a hired man from about 12 years old until he joined the service and fought in Korea. He had a room in the farmers barn and all the $s went to my grandparents. A lot of it went to him and his brothers clothing.

My son is leaving his job. Says he doesn’t want to work somewhere where he “dreads Mondays”.

They just don’t get it.

That and the disgusting display of a strong work ethic.

Milli's hate that.

Wrong. I did. Management changed from Australian management to greedy Indian management. Employer put a 6-month notice in place so it nearly impossible to really look for other employment.

This was Dubai/ UAE where it’s illegal and they will imprison you for absconding from a job. Thousands languish in its prisons for just that. The Dubai police are still threatening me as my former employer lodged a case against me. I better stay out of the GCC.

Quit, took the next flight out. It was rough for 6 months, but now making 4x the pay and I’m out of the backwards guilded cage that is Dubai. No more Ramadan bullshit to deal with.

Stop paying for their Iphones. Then see how many quit their jobs.
