Nobody wants to work anymore.

I just want to bang on the drum all day...


.

I'm not trying to recruit people over the internet. We pay a fair wage (that varies depending on what your skill level is and what you're hired to do) with advancement and on-the-job training opportunities.

I'm not trying to get anyone to relocate here to take a job. Frankly, we want locals with roots in this community so that we can show off our local heritage. In the past, this has worked out very well but we are finding NOW that anyone who is employable and not on drugs is already happily employed elsewhere.

Maybe it the fact that people are wising up to the system of control in this country. Breaking your back to make "money", working for a corporation that funds abortion rights and gay rights and every other liberal politically correct goal in America, increasing their bottom line, isn't something the new awake American likes to do with his time and sweat.

Yashua called money the "root of all evils". I have a hard time disagreeing with him.

We are now a Nation of Wimps

"NationofWimps.com explores the growing evidence that childrearing in America has taken a bewildering turn.

Armed with hyperconcern and microscrutiny, parents are going to ludicrous lengths to take the lumps and bumps out of life for their children today. However well-intentioned, their efforts have the net effect of making kids more fragile. That may be why the young are breaking down in record numbers or staying stuck in endless adolescence.

What's more, parents are seeking status and meaning for themselves in the achievements of their children. The trouble with turning tots into trophies is that the developmental needs of the young are sacrificed to the psychological needs of adults. But the biggest problem with pushing perfection may be that it masks the real secret of success in life. As any innovator will tell you, success hinges less on getting everything right than on how you handle getting things wrong. The ultimate irony is, in a flat world you don't make kids successful by pushing them to be perfect but by allowing them to become passionate about something that compels their interest."


There are many employers who chose to hire non-American's because they have better work ethic than MOST of the young people now.

"On a recent cross-country airline flight, I was seated next to a woman who is a vice president of a major investment banking company. She herself isn't a parent, but she comes in regular contact with young people. She asked what I was doing in L.A. I told her I had just given a speech to parents and faculty at a big and wealthy day school on the west side of L.A.. She confided that she now makes it a point NOT to hire the "fancy kids." She hires only the children of first-generation immigrants. Why? I asked. Because, she said, she has found that the kids of immigrants are resourceful, hard-working, good at figuring things out and at problem-solving. The "fancy kids," she says, always had parents running interference for them or cleaning up a mess in their wake. They're not persevering, not willing to work hard, not clever at problem-solving, not resourceful. The immigrant kids have parents who speak little English and lack the knowledge and ability to manipulate the system on their behalf. They are forced to learn to bring in their homework on time and to handle life on their own. Their "disadvantage" wound up making them stronger."

But a "crazy check" in the USA is only a maximum of $694/month + food stamps. Add that up. It's shit. It doesn't even come CLOSE to the 70k that you're comparing it to. Plus, isn't work an end unto itself? What else would you do all day? Isn't having an important purpose worth something?

Hmmm. Won't say. Very interesting. Sounds like a serious case of :bulshite:

This guy gets it. I wish there were more like him around here.

That's because you are a fucking idiot.

I work for a great company that pays well, has great benefits and offers employees the bragging rights of making something that is the best in the world. Sounds good, right?

However, we are short-staffed and can't find good help. People apply but aren't willing to do the job. They don't last because they don't like to work or don't even know HOW to work.

I thought that "jobs are scarce" and good hard-working people were looking for jobs in a terrible economy. Boy, was I wrong. Jobs are out there. Workers are NOT.

Do you realize how hard it is to find someone who is willing to work and who is not on drugs these days? These people call off once a week and can't even come in on time when they DO decide to show up.

Fact is, this is in a rural, largely white area. You would THINK that there would be people scrambling for a good job that pays a livable wage and offers health, dental, vision, disability and gap insurance coverage for the whole family--all in a pleasant team-oriented work environment with the additional perk of manufacturing products that are the absolute best (bar none) in their class. I'm talking about the best perk of all--bragging rights. When someone asks you what you do for a living, you'll be so proud to tell them all about it that they'll probably tell you to shut up after a while.

What do people want? Doesn't "made in America" mean anything to people anymore? What the heck?

People want to work

If theyre white.

But a "crazy check" in the USA is only a maximum of $694/month + food stamps. Add that up. It's shit. It doesn't even come CLOSE to the 70k that you're comparing it to. Plus, isn't work an end unto itself? What else would you do all day? Isn't having an important purpose worth something?

Find an entry-level job (especially in manufacturing). Get the job. Work EXTRA hard. Do it with a smile. Express interest in learning to operate all the different machines there (all companies need "back-up" operators for machines just in case the normal operator calls in sick). Get trained on those machines.

Guess what....

You just made yourself a VERY VALUABLE EMPLOYEE. The more machines you are trained on, the more you are worth. And if/when other people get laid off, you WILL NOT.

Do what I said above and you will have a long and prosperous career.

ya lately ive been thinking this way.

having idle hands is really just depressing. it's best to keep busy. the problem is that feminists and such have taken over the work place and modified attitudes. the key is to keep working and keep away from these people as best you can.

unfortunately honey...work is a dirty work anymore. Work ethic is pretty much gone now with people. All they want to do is sluff off and get money for nothing. You and I are the last of a dying breed. I'll tell you though. I work and I love to work. The younger ones today all they think about is their ipads, their iphones and their facebook. They don't know anything about reality as they live in a virtual world..not a reality based world. Oh are they ever in for a rude awakening when their "bennies" run out...and the cold hard facts of reality slams them in the face.

This guy gets it. I wish there were more like him around here.

I'm a non-drinking, non-drugging white male who is never late and always excels above and beyond expectations in the workplace.

I can be trained to do just about anything in half the time it takes to train others.

I'm ready to work, nobody cares.

Stuck in restaurants serving because nobody seems to have use for someone like me.

Did I mention I'm a Veteran?

The workforce is a sad joke.

and as for what she's doing all day, well, she takes a Hydrococodone at 8, 12, 4, and 8 and she waits an hour for those to kick in and then, she is really hyper because of the speed, so she makes jewelry which she sells under the table.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

He`s right you know !!!!!!!!!

That is some really bad advice.

Every place I've ever worked, there was no reward for working hard and doing a great job. All that shit ever got me was being hated and targeted by childish assholes who don't want to work.

Want to succeed at your job? Don't work. Instead, party. That's what works.
