Can't do trades. My back and shoulders are fucked from having worked in the trades. My friends in tech say it is completely jeeted and that they haven't found work in almost two years.

>But I don't expect /leftypol/ to understand basic socialist talking points anymore, not surprised you are repeating the same shit as lolberts and MAGAtards verbatim at this point.

Why do you people keep accusing others of being reactionary for disagreeing with the over credentialism?

>>1980
>Also work hours should be lowered, yet people like you act like a 40-hour workweek is human nature and was the divine decision of God or something.

Forty hours is the result of leftists fighting for an more moderate work week

But ok, if you want reduced work hours, why not have reduced schooling hours?

>>1980
If the problem isn’t education, why are liberal arts being mandated for credits for one’s degree?
College students are forced to learn about Shakespeare just so they can get their degree in engineering or medicine

Education isn’t a problem but it’s become anti-technical, it’s become bohemianised

There’s leftists that call for reducing work hours for adults but wanna force more schooling hours onto children and young adults.

Irony is, schools had more playtime before the 1990s and kids had less ADHD problems because they were allowed to expend their energy in free range play

Schools also used to have workshops, where kids were taught about woodworking, automotive repair, and even cooking.

America started removing technical skills from their schools around the 1970s thru 2000s

> every job is potentially on the chopping block due to outsourcing, automation, or a combination of both.
This.
Go into debt and get a pmc job, do a trade, don’t do a trade; none of this matters. “Wrong life cant be lived rightly”

>>1987
“Be fruitful and multiply” is now officially a bygone philosophy.
Anyone who thinks otherwise is living in denial


 

because it's always gossiping and petty drama all the time.
My favorite workplace environment was a warehouse where 95% of the employees were dudes and the rest were butch lesbians who were actually pretty chill compared to their straight counterparts.

Everyone is arguing about what men and women are really like because this is a work culture thing, not a gender thing.

>>1981
True. However at the end of the day, work is better than school when it comes to socializing.

At least with work you can always change places when things get toxic.
School on the other hand? Bullying goes unaddressed for weeks on hand until someone dies

>>1985
I mean bullying is wrong but how much people are actually dying from bullying in school? I think more people might from workplace bullying than from school bullying. I think workplace violence is higher that school violence not that either one is better than the other but still.

>>1986
There’s been a lot of incidents of children being bullied to the point of death but it’s swept under the rug as “excessive horse playing”

Bullies used to beat up kids Witt baseball bats or metal rods, drown their victims with swirlies, or even rape them.

Bullying is often underreported and/or dismissed by adults as “kids being kids”

Or, if bullies go too far, the victim doesn’t die but rather gets a gun and shoots up the school

A lot of teen deaths are often written off as “accidental” to cover up suicide.

>>1986
>>1988
A lot of adults often have this mentality of bullying that its a “rite of passage”
Lots of boomers and Gen X ers especially even say that they’re proud of bullying because it “toughened them up”.
They think that removing kids from school due to bullying is “coddling them”

(Yet these same adults will go apeshit over teens having sex or romance.)

china kidnaps neets from their parents home and forces them into prison work camps

ah the wonders of secularist capitalistic hell-holes.

Is this the final solution?

I'm not opposed to this if they're not killing them in mass or mistreating them. Although when you fall to this point their may be very little to bring you back. Maybe the Chinese could be better at this although this video is propaganda and who knows how bad it is in these places. I could see America doing this and it just resulting in another holocaust with a whole bunch of rape thrown in.

>>1969
they're going to end up killing themselves, that's what's going to happen. they were already killing themselves, just slowly. this propaganda is just to hide the fact that the state is failing so you can keep the chyna numbah wan narrative going for some amount of time longer.
>I'm not opposed to this if they're not killing them en masse or mistreating them
yeah, sure, definitely none of that going on at all, right? totally kosher. (IT'S SARCASM FOOL)

why bro wearin sneakers?

meanwhile China's unemployment rate: ~10%

I <3 the reserved army of labor

Well, if you’re opposed to this, why do you support compulsory law for schooling?

Anyone choosing to study humanities for a career is of questionable intelligence in terms of life skills

I recently finished high school and I've been having so much fun! I'm worried I'll have to go to college soon and get my freedom stripped from me again. Maybe even get a j*b in the future. I really just want to do whatever I enjoy instead of working for a porky.
Personally, I'm OK with going to college, because I believe it might help me make new friends (and it's also a temporary facade to convince my family I'm definitely "getting something done with my life") but I absolutely don't want to get a j*b.
How can I achieve the NEET life?

It can be two things.

>I wanna become a rentier

It’s amazing how paradoxical Leftypol is with their motives

“Kill all landlords and bourgeois except me”

Such as…?
Would you be willing to work for eight hours a day, five days a week under communism?

Too debilitated by PTSD to finish my law degree at a good university. Interned in prestige media and got no contacts from it because it was essentially a 12 week paper pusher treadmill. Feel hopeless. I love writing and literature so I want to wage enough to support that. But I have generally no support network so I’m just rawdogging nepo faggotry and I am exhausted and despondent. Any suggestions on what to do.

NORMALIZE DOING LOUD WORK OUTSIDE AT NIGHT
I'M TIRED OF ONLY BEING ALLOWED TO DO HOT LOUD OUTDOOR WORK DURING THE DAY WHEN IT'S A BAJILLION DEGREES OUTSIDE
NORMALIZE NOCTURNAL SLEEP SCHEDULES
CONSTRUCTION WORKERS IN EQUATORIAL REGIONS ALREADY WORK AT NIGHT, NORMALIZE THIS IN SUB-EQUATORIAL REGIONS, AND WITH "RURAL" WORK LIKE TREE WORK

>hurr durr you need to see

GIVE EVERY WORKER NIGHT VISION GOGGLES AND BIG ASS LAMPS

AS CLIMATE CHANGE GETS WORSE AIN'T NOBODY WANNA BE AWAKE DURING THE FUCKIN DAY ANYWAY

isn't vital infrastructure work done during night

normalize three am angle grinders!

They do loud work at 3 am here, I don't have sleep issues so it doesn't bother me. Only hear it when I wake up to take a piss.

You will work under the sun. You will dehydrate. You will pass out. You may die. And you will like it.

it's clearly the consumer that's the problem. The management are aghast at how the public treats their workers. How could you expect somebody to work for free? Servers need tips to survive, not tipping them at least 100% is the financial equivalent of murder. It should come with jail time, because at least with real murder the victim doesn't suffer for a long time. Anybody tipping less than 120% is a monster.

Im working as a low voltage electrician. I hate working at a datacenter knowing im directly contributing to the degradation of the earth and the continued usage of AI. There isnt any other job available at a different site AFAIK. is the future of low voltage just datacenter bullshit?

i imagine all sorts of facilities need electricity too, i'm sure something will come your way that is not datacenter related.

fry all the servers and use some kind of plausible deniability technique to make it look like an accident

The datacenter bubble will pop soon, but yeah for now the electrician industry is kinda cooked.

They want to make sure you're not a transhumanist or something 🙄

I think i got the job and the petite bourgesisie millennials were nice to me. Although i feel slightly bad because its a major place for beer but at least as a line cook i can say they are at least trying to move away from just feeding alcohol addictions.

>>1918
It was a really short interview and they just asked if I could work and previous experiance, wasnt that bad

ive been applying to jobs everyday for 2 months and have heard nothing but silence and the occasional "we selected another candidate" email
dont fuck it up OP

>>1922
hope you will get it
