THE AVERAGE EMPLOYEE is NOT qualified to sign the FRONT of the PAYCHECK-—

IF they are-—they can start their own company.

They better be planning on WHERE their ‘spot on the sidewalk’ will be with the rest of the homeless.

I would ask them:

IF YOU DO NOT INTEND TO MAKE A PROFIT-—WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO LEARN THE BUSINESS????????

Young people appear to think they should become internet billionaires overnight. Delusional, narcissistic.

They don’t understand the concept of working ones way up the ladder,
“paying your dues”…
Gaining experience.

Expectations

So what was your last job.
I worked in fashion
What was your job
I hung up clothes left in the dressing room at Targets

Meanwhile, the expectation of working past the age of 62 dropped to 48.8 percent,


There is a disconnect.......................

That sounds like a lot of money, but not considering taxes car food and housing.

Average work year hours equals 2080 hours.

I use the number 2000 to compute wages in my head.

$74K divided by 2 is $37K. Now move the decimal point.

From the other direction: Multiple by 2 and move the decimal point. If a job pays $20 an hour, that's $40K a year.

Since he’s not on the prime he doesn’t have a contract rep on site. There is no one to report his absence to.

I have. No common laborer is not the middle class. The middle class had live in help. Look above for my explanation why.

Good questions.

It occurs to me they may be forced into menial jobs or some
level of criminality.

We seem to be seeing evidence of a lost generation.

The men are simps. The women who profess to like simps,
don’t. Birth rates are plummeting.

To be honest, this is why we are seeing the flood gates
opened on our border. These people are in no mood to
support others. Good luck with SS and other schemes the
feds have set up.

For all the events they participated in, this is exactly what
they had been taught.

Just show up. They owe you for participating. You don’t have
to achieve. Just show up.

Yes. And this jibes with the Marxist goal of obliterating the individual to establish a culture based on the collective or group.

To destroy our culture of strong individualism, the Marxists are throwing open our borders to flood us with peoples of other or no culture. Our culture is diluted with people eager to cede responsibility to a strong state.

As an aside, I had a pop-up ad this week for a product that feeds right into the Marxist plan to convert the American people from strong individualists into servile sheep easily led by the state. The ad was for legal pot (Delta-8 THC) as edibles (gummy bears), flowers (buds), or vapes. Here is the link: Hello Mood. Check it out. Nothing would turn Americans into a flock of manageable of sheep quicker that easy access to weed.

Our people are being groomed not to reproduce. Imagine that.

At their age I was getting to the point I thought it was
time.

Our population flattening out, we both see it for what it is,
and you touched on it exactly right.
