Water from the tap faucet and the pee and poo-poo magically disappears!
So true.
And because they all want to be the CEO of a dot.com company.
Sort of like Andrew Crapuchettes now that I think about it...
Also they know as soon as the labor market gets a little tight, the industries will cry that the need another ten million immigrants (legal or illegal) to drive down wages. There aren’t nearly as many H1B visa holders to drive down white collar wages.
Right.
How many blue collar jobs can be done at home with a cell phone and laptop while sipping a latte?
A librarian once said “I located the books a couple of students needed and said they are on the third floor. They looked at me like I had asked them to pack a mule for a trip around the Grand Canyon. Actually walk up there and go to the shelves and pick up a book not online or condensed on Wikipedia? They looked pained and unbelieving.”
Zoomers look at these jobs as old white men jobs which are beneath them.
All young people should get a job involving hard physical labor for some period of time. It will make a person appreciate those who physically work hard for a living.
Not true of the ones in my family. They are all working, just 18 and under.
This is why China had their cultural revolution—got the snooty university professors and students and ordered them to do agricultural labor for a few years.
The attitude adjustment was stunning.
Plumbers and electricians make good money. They work hard...and they get their hands dirty...but they live pretty well.
There are two Americas; the first is urban with kids learning to demand a handout at a very early age. The second is rural where kids still learn you have to get down and work to make an honest living.
I am reminded of a family member who for years claimed he “could not find a job! No one wanted to hire him!”
I found him a job doing the same work I was doing for great pay and benefits, just a different company! I called him and told him about it and his words were....”I don’t want to do that kind of work!”
I said “O-K!” And never tried to help him again. His brother-in-law found him a job in a steel fabrication company. He lasted half a day before being fired.
Bingo.
Mr. Crapuchettes, who "began his career as a young Silicon Valley entrepreneur, building business process automation and selling 3D modeling software", thinks that others should have blue collar jobs but not him.
A lot of folks in the younger generations rightly avoid certain blue collar careers because they witnessed politicians and bureaucrats send millions of those jobs overseas (or right over the border to Mexico) or... bring in millions of illegal aliens to suppress wages in those jobs.
We've just witnessed the largest transfer of wealth in world history, all under the guise of a "pandemic". These younger generations are well aware the system is set up to benefit Capital, not Labor.
Correct. Go try to find someone interested in becoming a surveyor, civil engineer, or architect! Growing up, those were considered highly desirable, high status careers. No more.
There are plenty of H1bs ready to flood in from India and other third world countries
“Because food comes from the grocery story and electric comes from the outlet! DUH!! (S)”
I actually read a comment on Twitter the other day where this person said we don’t need low-IQ farmers anyway. You can learn to farm on Google. That is how far gone these people are.
Millennialitis is a terrible disease and the only cure is poverty and starvation.
Abolish Welfare and watch things turn around
Easy, PAY MORE.
We CANNOT let that happen.
