Sadly I have to agree with you. Small business owners know how hard it is to find someone who simply shows up on time.

High schools and colleges (maybe society) pump up young kids to be executive management when they graduate. They teach them that manual labor is beneath them.

Learn a trade, then get a degree.

That's the way to go! I did just that, and what i learned in the field not only helped with the degree, it made me WAY more valuable than the 22 year olds i was competing against. Besides, i could afford (and buy) pizza and beer, too.

Of course, some are too stupid to be management material, but htye aren’t taught that. They are usually taught the opposite.
