I’m a blue collar worker and have mainly loaded trucks with a forklift for the past 10 years. It sucks but I scrape by. Today my supervisor called everyone in for a morning meeting and told us our sister location in another state would be shutting down by the end of next month. I live in a small town in bumfuck Texas and me and the other guys know that if this place shuts down too it’s going to be impossible to find another job without moving. Just when I thought the bad news had come and gone out boss tells us everyone working on the floor will have to mount a new device on our hard hats for workplace safety. It’s a fucking camera, I looked up the brand and they are being mass produced to train ai models. The worst part is that no one in the room said a damn thing, the older guys are about to retire in a few years and the other young guys don’t say anything just have their earbuds in all day. But I am most disappointed because I didn’t say anything. I felt like it would have been completely pointless and would only have drawn negative attention and rumors about me. After some thought I realized what happened to me in that moment is what’s going to happen to this entire county within my lifetime. I’ve been doomposting in my own head since then, what are we even supposed to do about this?
National socialism of course
>>538106759I'm glad to hear you're suffering, I hate texans.
>>538106759Don't worry, it would require shitload of RAM (for example for car it needs 300 gb to drive like humans). You're still cheap tool
>he didnt study Hiten Mitsurugi-ryū Bladengmi + itsogre-pilled
>>538106759Yeah, you live in a small town, retardo. These places depend on the one thing they do being viable. The proper way to approach living in bumfuck nowhere is as a mercenary: extract as much value as you can and have an exit plan to fuck off the moment things start to decline.I know you're a retarded townie, but small towns exist as fungible inputs to bigger urban areas where commerce actually happens, and without being propped up by pensions and welfare were often abandoned by their residents when they were no longer economically viable. A small town is not a home; it is an outpost you tolerate because you get paid.
Are blue collar jobs bad?
>>538106759No offense anon, but this is why we look down on wagies. You faggots never stand up for anything, even for yourselves because you're too afraid of losing your precious paycheck.
>>538106759Just think to yourself what blue collar jobs will be taken over by robots in the near future. Extrapolate. Learn to turn a fucking wrench. Learn how to work on stuff. Hell there's tons of entry jobs that they will train you to do. Robots will not be taking these jobs anytime soon.
>>538107196>not standing uphe didnt listen to Battousai the Manslayers frenly advice
>>538106759Why not just retrain and change career? If I was going to do anything else these days (I currently work in tech as a software dev) I'd probably retrain as an electrician then start my own business. Trades are not going to be taken by AI anytime soon and people always have a need for good tradesmen if they need work doing. I have no idea how it is in the USA though if you just use cheap mexicans for that, in the UK you normally try to find someone decent and I'd personally never hire a foreigner to do work for me.
>>538107103Their scumshitCant wait till ai repaces them all and i can lauch at them form my comfey coding jop LOL
>>538107103Everyone looks down on blue collars. Men have little respect for us and even other blue collars pretend not to be one of us when not working. Women have no interest in a blue collar man unless you are very tall and handsome.
>>538106759Save money, buy some cows and start a farm. Plant timbers or something like that.
>>538108072Shut up poo
>>538107103i like my welding job
>>538108072They breed and increase numbers exponentially, soon you will be blessed with 100 cows
>>538106927Im also from Texas, but am 100% secure in my job within my extended lifetime. Im doing alright, cant complain at all. Im a maintenance electrician and robots wont be able to do what im doing unless the entire building is built from the ground up to be maintained by robots only. Which will eventually happen, but not within my career lifespan
>>538106759but this is fate of indians that you made fun of. how does it feel being treated like a dalit?
>>538106833>OP complaining about AI surveillance>Retard suggestion a state that was all about AI surveillance and central authority
>>538108084>genuine reponse>shut u p poopgood. die cumskin.
>>538108309No matter how bad things get here, you forgot one important thing. My God smiles upon my White skin every day I do not wake up Indian.
Show this to your little hat camera 10 times a day:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p9R5Dr9OZBw
>>538108351You are a turd
>>538106759Damn. BroThat sucks. You have my sympathy but it’s pretty worthless. Don’t feel bad for not throwing a fit. It wouldn’t change anything and it would just have made problems for you. Start thinking about where you’re gonna move, I guess. Good luck
>>538106927You are obviously a very miserable person. That’s as big of a loser as a man can be.
Dang, so now they want even the blue collar worker to have some EMF emitting devices so they too can have low testosterone. This will speed up the tranny trend even more.
>>538106759retrain. You maybe out of a job in 2-3 years. But you have warning. Don't bury your head int he sand about this. If no one else realized then it means less completion for whatever you choose to apply for next. Just play dumb and dont say nothing dont kicks up a fuss and satrt figuring out your exit strategy.
>>538107103I enjoy my factory job.
>>538106759Do what illegals do. Work at cash job and maximize gibs.
>>538107908White collar jobs will be replaced faster than blue collar
>>538106759This is an agitation post btw. You don't need ai cameras to train robot lifts, they've been around for 20 years or so.
>>538106759LOLYou are the only pussy that you will ever know
>>538107103They offer mediocre pay and little opportunities for advancement unless you are in some very lucrative resource extraction field like petroleum, highly gatekept like elevator technicians, or in a major city with a lot of build outs and clients. Being an electrician in a declining town in bumfuck nowhere is a career and social death sentence.
>>538108327National socialist Germany did not have AI, tardo. Also they were surveilling communists and jews, theres nothing wrong with that at all.
>>538106759An Ai isn’t going to be able to repair forklifts. Try and retrain like some of the other anons here. Or start your own outfit. If small towns exist to extract wealth, offer your services to townies at a slightly lower price that allows everyone in town to stay there if they want. You might never be wealthy but you will be appreciated.
>>538106759Save money. Become independent. Become a sovereign producer of something other than metaphysical specialties or labor. You need to start physically producing. I know that’s a tall order. This is the only way. Good luck!
>>538106759I told you bodycams on cops were a slippery slope and eventually all would ve wearing them. It starts with wagies.You also live in a shithole with little opportunity and are surprised there's little opportunity? The housing can't be that cheap to justify living in such a place and limiting yourself to such mundane work. Just migrate for a better life. You can see what's coming already and have time to prepare by finding a new job away from the dusty shithole you currently live in. Or you can wait and end up fucked with no time to find an alternative.
>>538107103Do you want to move heavy objects all day, break your back, and deal with actual mouth breathers for co-workers? If the answer to any of those questions is "no", then yes they're bad.
>>538106759start driving into walls
>>538106759Sucks to suck bro
>>538107545He has to move states if he gets laid off forever because there's no jobs in rural areas, and since he has to look for work elsewhere in the country where he doesn't know anyone, this will garuntee he can't find a job anywhere since the market for every position is oversaturated to hell. A company up north will not risk hiring a forklift driver that's native because they don't want an employee who can sue for malpractice nor demand higher pay, so they will outsource the position to a spic who's desperately attempting to avoid deportation or a jeet with fake forklift certifications & no experience so they can drastically cut down on costs.
>>538106759Stay there. Milk the cow to the last dime.Actively look for another job during spare time.
>>538106759>I felt like it would have been completely pointless and would only have drawn negative attention and rumors about meYour feeling is entirely correct.The writing is on the wall.Start packing up your stuff and looking for a new place to move to while you still have an income and time.
>>5381083273iq tard
>>538106759should have said something, cuck! reason so many jews were rounded up by the nazi is because jew is such a parasite that it will keep it's mouth shut just so jew neighbors end up suffering the same. most jews ratted out other jews to nazi just so they aren't the only ones hauled off to camps
>>538114639Something I do to fuck woth boomers is put my cellphone in my carhart chest pocket with the camera facing out. Every single one of them, and the people I flag as narcissists will notice it.They talk and treat me two different ways, its pretty hilarious. Also record boomers clandestinely at work and wait for them to step on the giant X.They will deny having ever said things, then when you prove it they double down calling it fake, its pretty funny.Also another game they like is making you explain your full thought process behind every little thing.Or come Into a renovation, then point to a random thing and ask why it isnt done>expecting you to give an anwser.
>>538107103I clean out gigantic ovens with a machine. I have HOURS of idle time in between where I watch stupid animes or educational videos.It's comfy, and I believe all blue collar jobs will sooner or later morph into operating intelligent machinery, possibly remotely. Humans will become the overseers of an overwhelming workforce of slave robots/machines, especially if the global fertility trends continue.Hold on my brothers, your salvation is near.
>>538110886No anon.Tell boomers your planning on working for cash and are "done paying for other peoples pensions"Then tell them you've already won and their is nothing they can do about it.Then dismissively say money doesnt matter to you, so in a month you can say anon doesnt want me working overtime and "wants it all approved in writing" now, because thats exactly what the boomer wanted.And he gets.
>>538106759>mainly loaded trucks with a forklift for the past 10 years. It sucksDoes it? I was thinking about getting into forklift work. I want a job where I can sit down all day and collect a pay check and wait for death.
>>538115538This.Never leave for a job unless you have it and have started. Call in sick your first two days then once its secure, quit.Pretty much anytime I ever did the right thing and gave two weeks notice they got rid of me by the end of the week, then one boomer head my check and demanded I give him a month, and played dumb until I physically handed him, in person an invoice for my hours six months later...Never work for a promise of something, ever.Demand the carrot be put in your hands, or outright refuse to run.Timelines and budget are a meme, they only use them as a way to get you to "work faster" just tell them your more concerned with safety than being fast.Talking back always has consequences, and they will bait you into it, just chuckle and say your going back to work and ignore it.If you see the cracks, other anons do too...also if you /really/ want to go full psychological warfare, when one of their friends asks what your issue with him is, just say you dont have one and respect him and that he does everything correctly.
>>538116236>I clean out gigantic ovens with a machineAre these gas ovens?
>>538106759negan or leonidas. you dont have them and none of you are them.youre this little perplegic gnome sucker that pisses his pants.thats you and you wont do shit.
the people DONTCAREtheyre allSHEEPthey just want to have an easy life. dont disturb it.
>>538106759> being a wagie
>>538108199Sorry to hear that you aren't suffering enough. I also hate Texans.
>>538106759I'm sorry you're going through this, I have no solutions but I hope if push comes to shove you find an alternative. Good luck, God bless.
>>538106759Everyone thought they were not worthless peasants.Big reality check coming by the ruling class.
>>538106759Take batts out of camera. Put camera in microwave for 5 seconds.Repeat 5 second nuking until small pop is heard.
>>538107619>coding job>thinks ai isnt going to replace him too
>>538106759Anons i (32y) work as a restaurant manager and don’t really feel at all like the money is worth the labor. Please, are there any good ideas out there for a real career for someone that doesn’t have an education? I’m open to suggestions, I’ve never had a passion for anything that can actually make $ so at this point I’ve abandoned the idea of doing a job “I love/have a passion for”. I just want something that is actually possible to do and not something that would take years of studying or training for, unless it’s genuinely attainable and good $ (like 6 figures)
>>538107369>>538107055I love you burger. Its peak. Kenshi is the best kino of all time.
