Today, some guy told me
>i live a very good life man, you loser
So I asked him what he does expecting him to say he is retired or something.
He says
>I make 6 figures as a welder
I went like
>bro lol
>are you kidding me, I make 6 figures doing nothing.
He starts getting prissy with and talking like some passive aggressive redditor
He kept on repeating
>suree budddy
Why are blue collar people so low iq and unpleasant?
>>
>>61495762
You are schizophrenic!
>>
>>61495762
Bump. Why is this place so dead?
>>
>>61495762
Zoomies so scared of manual labour they'd rather starve while daydreaming about being a doctor.
>>
>>61495807
>>61495762
Well that is it. The prestige of a position matters almost as much as the pay. If you made $300k as a porta potty scrubber people still would prefer to have a bozo office job for $60k
>>61495762
To your picture, it's a real question of IQ and also connections. If you're dumb as rocks and aren't connected to an elite circle what the fuck are you getting out of going to some normie tier community college-turned-"university"? So it can both be true the rich kid is going to do alright at Harvard but you probably shouldn't get your dick squeezed paying for some pricey mid-tier school
>>
>>61495826
They can go get an office job if they want. We live in a free country
>>
>>61495826
They will just get a normal white collar job that requires a degree.
>>
>>61495807
oh you mean like how you're scared to smoke meth? yeah that's what I thought you fucking pussy
>>
>>61495762
trade school has been a meme for like 4-5 years now, unless you want to do something truly horrid like welding or machining

Blue collars are so useless they get replaced by dumb Mexicans
>>
>>61496024
a friend of mine was a sea welder, he made stupid money but the working conditions man... just 7 years into the trade and his body was already giving up so he had to stop, he got respiratory issues and his back & shoulders are ruined. But in just few years he saved enough to get a nice house and wasn't in a hurry to find a new job. Still had too eventually, the kind of guy with money burning his pockets.

Dead internet theory. You and I are the only ones that aren't bots.

That’s so real, I busted ass now I’m worth 6 figures

Blue collar = low life

ITT: people who grew up with physical laborers whose bodies exploded and were never happy vs people who didn't.
>>
>>61496467
kek
They all this shitty attitude. Good thing this board has white collars and etc, cause blue collars love to circle jerk each other
OMG IMPORTANT

>
You know what he said to me before he left?
>the world needs blue collars like us
>>
>>61496508
4chan has a LOT of blue collars. I was browsing pol and there was a thread with the pic in op and all the blue collars were circlejerking hard.
>>
>>61496522
yes aka people who have yet to have their bodies explode but are clearly already unhappy. though maybe they grew up with other physical laborers and just ignored all the obvious signs, so i conceed that much.
>>
>>61495807
Not a Zoomer or OP but its worth mentioning here that the incentives were a lot better just 75 years ago.

>Get to molest every other woman at the workplace
>Get to drive your car without seatbelts, probably even drunk, nobody cares
>Cocaine, weed, morphine and whatever the fuck else you want quasi-legal (As in largely ignored at anything below the federal level)
>Married by 25, wives have the rights and expectations their husbands give them, entire family votes as a single unit under the command of the head of household
>House by 30, second house for renting at 35
>Lines of credit at 1% or 2% interest
All Western nations 80+% white, 90% literate and 100% less pants-on-head retarded

And for all this all you had to do was work, pay your taxes, and make sure that if you're going to do anything distasteful like beat your wife or get drunk and piss on your neighbor's lawn like a gigantic asshole, you at least keep it to yourself and don't make a public case out of it. Now we live in a world of feminists, regulations and brown people and everything fun or interesting about being alive has been legislated away, and because of all the browns all this legislation hasn't even resulted in a better standard of behavior because they keep importing people who don't know what good behavior even is. Why exactly would you expect that anyone would want to have to work for a living for fat, screeching women, worthless money and a foreigner-infested land?

About to get another 14% raise next year.

Life is good and you cannot bait me into hatred.
>>
>>61496769
What hatred? It is blue collar people that have terrible attitudes and a chip on their shoulders.
>>
>>61496769
> Life is good
Thats what the blue collars guy today said to me
>>
lower your tone morons, i work 60 hours per week
>>
>complains about how boomers had it easy with good jobs
>refuses to do high paying jobs boomers used to do
>>

>terrible attitudes and a chip on their shoulders.
Not here
99% of ppl here are chill as fuck.
No reason to be mad.

I saw a calendar of the boomers doing my job at the same corporate company and they had 10x the employees as they do now. Now we have 4 man crews expected to finish every building less than a week. The crews in the calendar were massive, they had pictures of 2 guys holding a ladder for fuck sake. Boomers ALWAYS had it easy and its only their delusion that will say otherwise
>>
>>61497233
shut up zoomer
sick and tired of your bitching
times change
>>
>>61497249
I'm not bitching I'm making fun of boomers bitch little bitch boy
>>
>>61497261
The generations before them didn’t have electricity.
>>
>>61497269
You realize Joe Biden was part of the silent generation (the generation before boomers) right? You think he grew up without electricity? Are you like 14 years old and think the times before smart phones was a long time ago?
>>
>>61497275
They grew up during war. No electronics like what we have.
>>
>>61497278
They watched the moon landing on a television in their homes
>>
>>61496536
Every word of this is truth
>>
>>61497282
Calm down. Every generation has it’s challenges. They had dot com bust and 80s recession and 2006 recession and covid. And 70s recession. Loser.

Really funny seeing people blame brown people for what clearly is an issue caused by elites and capitalism. The post war baby boom was a unique era in the united states . Shit was cheap, the rest of the world was bombed out, and women’s rights didn’t exist. Then the capitalist started squeezing the screws, and you can survive on a single man salary, now women had to enter the workforce, now societal Hills or improvements based on who you ask where women or equal. And those same capless are now importing people . It’s not really the fault of the brown people look at your system, which is fucked to you.

Very Indian and wrong mindset. This is caste system retardation
>>
>>61495826
in the US, blue collar doesn't guarantee a stable life anymore. It USED to, maybe up until 2010 in some areas, but definitely nowhere now. Its more viable to get one of those bullshit daycare jobs that provide nothing and get rich that way before whatever bubble you're in bursts.
