Young people think they will be young forever.
But they will grow old like the rest of us. It is nice to have a job you enjoy but the purpose of a job is to earn money to pay for the things you need and to save for the future.
Enjoy life today without thinking of you future almost guarantees a hard life at the end of the road.
(This may not be true for everyone, but I suspect it will be true for most of those slackers that just do enough to pay for the next “fun” thing.)
Instead of working (which ALWAYS involves working with SOMEONE you don’t like or doesn’t like you), they will just steal other people’s stuff.
Socialism at work.
Or, should I say, at rest.
We should start a rumor there’s a shortage of green crayons and watch the unhappiness skyrocket.
The Bible says something about that.
2 Thessalonians 3
10 For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: “If a man will not work, he shall not eat.”
11 We hear that some among you are idle. They are not busy; they are busybodies.
12 Such people we command and urge in the Lord Jesus Christ to settle down and earn the bread they eat.
“According to a recent Randstad survey, more than half of the Millennials and Gen Z respondents said they would quit a job if it prevented them from enjoying life.“
My hats off to them if they do this without going on the dole but I gotta wonder how one has an enjoyable time when broke…?
Easy to lay judgement without the entire story.
In the past, it was all, “Me and the boys have gotten together and decided that a 9-5 workday is what we’re going to be doing.”
Nowadays it’s, “I don’t CARE if you’re trying to work two jobs to make ends meet; YOU’RE GOING TO COME IN AND WORK ON YOUR OFF DAY OR ELSE.”
This because they know government will steal from the productive to give to the laziest generation.
NONE of them have figured out that making money doing WORK on a JOB is what pays for the FUN things they want to do.
