An easy job, a home, healthcare. Is that really too much to ask for?
>>
just get a job in insurance
>>
>>533671884
theyre all so dumb though. my friends who work in offices say the zoomers cant even organize a C drive or fill out the front of an envelope. ngmi

>>533671884
Boomers weren't born with jobs and houses, they pulled themselves up by the bootstraps with a firm handshake and direct eye contact

>>533671884
Get a job in utilities. We get decent pay (46-53/hr), union bennies and maybe actually work 1-2 hours a day. Maybe you have seen me sitting in a white truck on the side of the road before, don't be afraid to say hi.

lmao this is how i know youre not working in california. nobody working for the power company would say this here
>>
>>533672289
they didn't even walk to school... which used to be a quintessential boomer thing they always whined about to millennials, all i see in the south are white kids being chaffeured to and from school by boomers
>>
>>533672691
California is even worse at slacking off than we are.

>>533671884
Bro this bimbo bitch can simply suck off her managers cock to the top. Shouldn't even be complaining
>>
>>533671884
>Is that really too much to ask for?
yes
unless there's another world war where the rest of the world wrecks itself but the US remains untouched
you will not get another period of prosperity like the boomers enjoyed
it was a one time thing brought about by specific world events

california's school buses aren't empty like buses in the south that just have some niggers

>>533671884
gen z are cuck voyeurs and don't actually want those experiences, they just want to watch someone living what they think is a nice life
>>
>>533672750
i know. i live here. the power companies here are predatory and incredibly unpopular (especially PGE and SDGE) and that trickles down into a lot of abuses and hate against their employees in the field. something to do with accepting money from scumbags. in some areas they even send unmarked trucks and uniforms to avoid this. thats how i knew you werent working here. no california power utility employee would be inviting strangers to approach their truck lol
>>
>>533672691
boomer parents all drove themselves to school with the cars they bought from a paper route. im not fucking around.
My dad worked his entire life in the airline industry durings its golden age. he was in a union and anti union. he was paid (adjusted for inflation) 67 dollars an hour, the company paid for his vacation every year to coney island, and all he did was throw bags onto a plane.

I went to apply the same job when i turned 16 and it was paying 15$ an hour 2023, its actually 14.60 now.

I build houses, i eat from my back yard so i dont starve lol
>>
>>533671884
I was rewatching Fight Club the other day and realize zoomers would kill for the life the protagonist had. Imagine being able to afford your own place and not having to live with roommates. Office job that pays for your own place. Must be nice.
>>
>>533672996
yeah i know boomers bought brand new muscle cars by working one summer at a grocery store, or paid for 4 years of college from working one summer job or went on road trips all the way to california or from california all the way to woodstock in new york
>>
>>533672996
i also flew for free using a flight card, all i had to do was wear nice clothes.
I flew to las vegas a few times just for food and flew to california to see cowboy bebops knocking on heavens door world premiere in english at the dragon theatre.


The chinese have my life, my dad sold it to them.
>>
>>533672531
I am letting my state pay for my reeducation as a truck driver so I can get a job like this.
>>
>>533673093
parents never went to college.
67$ an hour.
It pisses me off. If you adjusted for cost of living and inflation minimum wage would be like 28$

I literally live this life. 44 yrs old, 14 yrs at one of the biggest richest companies in the world. Make enough to afford my own house and buy whatever I want from Amazon.com but finding a good woman or building a meaningful life and a family is just not on the cards. Divorced once and never marrying a broken modern day woman again. No kids no expenses just watching my family and those I care about get old and die and taling care of my 8k French bulldog.
>>
>>533672531
you watched me dig shit out of a drain and ate takis!! i know you!
>>
>>533672901
I work for the city water treatment not PP&L I wish I could get a job doing that
>>
>>533673276
i dont think consumerism is the answer. I think fight club still holds its message really well. I was doing 80 hour weeks and keeping things together and ended up putting a gun to my head. I sold everyhting, bought a ranch house on some land and disappeared. I only come out to do contract work periodically to pay property tax.

I love my life. I wish i didnt waste so much of it pursuing money. I love my wife and children. I wouldnt change anything for me...But society overall is sick as fuck. people cant eat and as someone who produces food. its easy. I donate 10-12 dozen eggs a week locally. Food should almost be free. It was before man fenced nature.

ofc women are fantasizing about easy office jobs that pay well lmao

men can do all the jobs they don't want to do i guess

Actually insane, how the fuck is there not a revolution right fucking now?!
>>
>>533671884
this is a lie, no one wants to be a corpo drone, this is nothing more than corporate propaganda, to get the goyim back into the office and out of the house/remote working
>>
>>533673592
No, I wasn't saying consumerism is the answer. I'm just saying quality of life for everyone has fallen so far from when fight club came out that people today would kill for the life the movies protag had. Zoomers see this guy with a full time job that pays for all his needs and the rest of the movie falls flat because they cant achieve that.

>or fill out the front of an envelope
it's worse than that, they literally don't know how to hold a pen anymore, this gen legit has the skills of a toddler. Their parents didn't teach them anything, just dropped them in front of a screen for their entire life.
The millenias' competency crisis already is bad enough, but i can't even fathom how it will looks like with zoomies...
Boomers managed to gatekeep their jobs/skills so hard they triggered a second bronze age collapse. GG.
>>
>>533672275
They dont even know how to open a pdf, for gods sake

>>533672275

I've ran into this. I sold something online and I shit you not the address line read
>"the house is on..."
Listen, I learned how to fill out addresses for mailing purposes in the 1st grade. It was an invaluable skill as I wrote into magazines and had numerous pen pals.

They can have it just as easy, but have to remove all of the browns from the country.

finally someone else who gets it. these zoom zooms are malding at a simple reversion to historical norms, we haven't even seen the bad shit yet
>>
>>533673276
Good goy
>>
>>533677021
You know, I think there is something to this. With how prevalent nepotism has become in the hypercompetitive job market, it is entirely possible that the people complaining about "kids these days" are only seeing the unqualified and undeserving nepobabies and never seeing normal zoomers in the office because employers just aren't hiring normal people anymore.
>>
>>533675362
I'm a Millennial and my parents didn't teach me to tie my shoes or tell time until I was 8 years old. They tried to teach me to ride a bike one single time when I was like 4. Since they said I was too scared that one single time for like 5 minutes they never tried again.

There was something just demonically wrong with Boomers in the US. They intentionally tried to make everyone pathetically helpless for reasons unknown.
>>
>>533677556
I've called several staffing agencies that never answer their phone. Then you get to the voicemail and the mailbox is full. It's egregious. Women are also so off the leash now that they just do not even pretend to give a fuck about their jobs. Like 5 years ago, women in an apartment office would giggle as they ignored a phone call. Now you can walk into the office and they'll ignore you. Like they're sitting on the wrong sides of the desk just chatting with one another and you have to interject.

The entire US is handicapped in this way.
>>
>>533678001
I'll tell you that many companies are surviving off of exported labor, and Americans are hired simply to be the "face" of the company or to quality control the work of the brownoids that are actually doing the work. This whole country feels a week away from a massive exit strategy from the top.
>>
>>533671884
Yes goy. Now get your ass back to work
>>
If its one of them office jobs where you hardly work and work a hard 40 with zero OT, then yeah, but those that ask you to always be on, check stuff on weekend, work late night and shit, fuck that
>>
>>533671884
>Is that really too much to ask for?
if u really think about it Boomers have/had so much fucking wealth and power its unreal. they were only betrayed for their high trust and altruism. But even to this day, its the boomers that are holding all this shit together
>>
>>533671884
Offices today suck ass. Whoever invented the open office concept needs to be electrocuted.
Also driving to the office just to spend all day on virtual teams calls is a humiliation ritual.
>>
>>533678447
>Also driving to the office just to spend all day on virtual teams calls is a humiliation ritual.
It's intentional. They want to waste your time. If you were working from home you could do a load of laundry here or there, get some light cleaning done, make a meal. You'd be saving time and money and you could use the weekends to actually live and experience life, and they absolutely fucking hate that. They hate you. They want what is worst for you and this is intentional.
>>
>>533677259
like clockwork
>>
>>533671991
It's unreal. I just started at a fortune 500 insurance agency and I'm realizing the "I make $150k and answer 2 emails a day" meme is not entirely false. I get that we get paid what we do because of risk management. They're hire really competent people so I can output one hour of work that holds the company and mitigates risk and then do nothing the rest of my day. But... Took me about 10 years to get to the point where I can do what I do.

>>533678622
I agree, and that's why I don't think GenZ really wants those jobs as they exist today.
Because my boomer dad worked in tech starting in 1985 and THAT'S the kind of office job I really wanted. By the time I finished college in 2008 though that shit was a fantasy. It's been downhill since.
>>
>>533678622
nah I tried letting my employees work remote and the quality of work fell off a cliff. a couple didn't and didn't get the mandatory return to office email. the rest all did and I won't hire more remote workers besides the small handful who actually did their jobs right from home.
>>
>>533672275
That's what AI is for. Duh.

>>533671991
Don't do it
Put it this way, most people in office jobs work basically an hour or two a day. High performers work 3, the top 0.1 percent work 6 hours a day

I work the full 8 hours, non stop, and I'm still eternally behind because insurance companies are structurally set up to punish being good at your job. Work is rewarded with more work, expectations are then set at your unattainable level and is rewarded with... nothing

At my old job, I did the work of 3 people for a month. It was absolute hell, taking 30-40 phone calls a day while processing all their claims literally as fast as humanly possible. I got nothing from it, aside from an expectation to keep working at that level. It took a serious sit down with middle management to explain that the amount of work I was doing was 6x the KPI and I was only able to do that for a short time.

You don't get promoted, because no one moves up or laterally. Everyone just sits in their role and doesn't bother, because everyone's had their soul sucked out and lacks ambition.

Do you want to do this for 6 years before being considered for a mediocre supervisory role, screaming customers and $1 an hour more? No? Then do literally anything else

Where I live there's old hags dominating every drug and grocery store and the postmaster is like 90+ with both eyes trying to escape his skull in different directions, I don't know what the fuck you're supposed to do if you want even the shittest of menial jobs as long as they're still clinging to life with their talons. It's no wonder half the people you see online are either code monkeys or truck drivers
>>
>>533672996
My grandmother retired at 55; she was a teacher.
My mother, who is also a teacher, receives less than my grandmother did in retirement.
And that's including the travel allowance of several hundred euros because my mother is a substitute teacher.
In 2006 the minimum wage was €1254. In 2026 it will be €1443. We have earned less than €10 per year for the last 20 years, while prices have all quadrupled at least.

the economy is entirely fake and gay, in an actual functional system that doesn't print money and hand it directly to Satanic pedophiles, people could very easily support themselves with just 20 or 30 hours of actual work a week

Like I said before, remember to kill yourself

I was working at an HVAC conference recently where contractors basically meet with adult education teachers to discuss what needs to be taught in trade schools. They said they’re having issues with new hires not having enough driving experience to drive the company van around. It’s all cause no one has any money and gone are the days of turning 16 and inheriting the old family beater car.

Kmart cashiers back in the day got pensions. You could spend literally your entire life just bagging cheap crap in a Kmart and get a pension out of it. Not to mention they were paying you enough money to live by yourself. Just bagging shit at Kmart.

Also, on the subject of cars, a decent used Honda Civic went from $900 to $3,500 in the span of like 5 years.

Absolutely everything is fucked.

there is an epidemic of literally toddler-ized gen-z kids (((men))) who either dont have their license in their 20's, got it when they were 18 or out of highschool or something, or plain dont know how to drive.
there is no excuse for that.

even if cars are more expsensive etc. there are shitboxes out there to be had 100% that are good enough.

I literally could not imagine my life not being able to drive the fucking moment i turned 16
like holy fuck what happened to your generation

im a "millenial" (born 1985) and only the weirdest freaks didnt insta-get their license at 16, it was like 2% of the driving population that wouldnt have their license ...

now I bet its over 50% of kids 16+ dont drive, and dont even "want to"
its absurd

i cannot fucking fathom the mindset of literally "wanting" to rely on your parents for fucking menial trips to wherever
its so alien, my brain cant even model it in my head
