Great story - really shows the absurdity of people who want to drop out of high school in grade 9 and flip burgers thinking it entitles them to a detached house and a nice car. So when do you have the right to complain about your money and how you deserve better than what you have? When can you say you work harder for what you're getting back in life? You can find hard workers at pretty much any job. The relative value of what you're doing at your job is very important to consider. I mean, on the one hand, yes, you're absolutely right that you should expect to put in work to develop skills if you want career advancement to be more of an expectation and not just a remote possibility. On the other hand, the fact that low-wage workers are making the same wages while cost of living increases is a separate problem. If wages aren't at least keeping pace with inflation, then that's a problem that goes beyond someone's particular life choices. "but why should I have to work hard for stuff and make myself relevant when, like, employers should just THROW money at me for flipping burgers, man!" No one's saying you shouldn't work hard or make yourself relevant. Sure they are - you're implying it when you say that you should just be able to flip burgers (unskilled manual labor) and think that entitles you to a good life in 2018 when unskilled manual labor is becoming irrelevant and obsolete. --- Come check out my community board for NEET discussions: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/1467-neet-discussions <cite>REMercsChamp posted [p:909430962] in Millennial...
