    I can not find anyone who doesn't have an arrest record or is not on drugs that actually wants to work. I've given up trying, so I do all of the work myself. I'm making bank because nobody can find anyone else willing to do what I do and I turn over the work because I'm not going on coffee breaks all day.

    When my generation is too old to work anymore you guys are doomed because none of you have any skills.

    I always enjoy managers who "can't find good people" and blame it on the general characteristics of the labor force rather than their own practices. I would be willing to bet that just about every other place of employment in your general area manages to find hard working people.

    Did you ever consider that no one wants to work for you because you pay shit wages?

    Bingo.

    Companies don't care for their employees anymore. It's all about the bottom line for the next 3 months. Goodbye pensions and lifetime employment. We are expendable.

    So hack that system. Save most of your income while you doooo have those office jobs from companies that don't care about you, then retire in your 40s with a comfortable nest egg and pursue a belated professional career racing masters races.

    You'll spend plenty of time outside and can supplement your passive income with prize money, coaching, whatever else you feel like

    Men were not designed to work indoors behind a desk. We evolved to be hunters and gatherers outdoors. Our current lifestyles are not in sync with our evolution. It is the main reason why 80% or more of children diagnosed with ADHD are men (we aren't designed to sit in a classroom or office for eight hours a day). Our historical adaptations are poorly suited to the modern world.

    The moral of this thread is work sucks. Having rich parents is the way to go.

    Are you saying that people with arrest records and/or on drugs do want to work?

    I'm in the military. I get along with my leaders and with people that work for me. Consider going down to your local recruiting station and signing up.
