it was actually an official recession as of like a year ago, 2 consecutive quarters of falling GDP, but they memoryholed that definition because one party runs everything now including the whole media so it is outlawed to admit there is a recession

Exactly. It's impossible to stress just how much better things were then than they are now. It sounds unbelievable, and it wasn't that long ago.

2008 only felt as bad as it did because Americans had no clue how prosperous things had been. It was "I graduated, but I can't even get a job.". It's not like a degree would help you get a job waiting tables, you'll lose our to someone who actually has restaurant experience. Hopeless, no way out.

It can get so much worse than no way to win. Things are so expensive now that even if you do have a job, 90% new job market entrants can't win, they're just trying to not lose.

If there's a credit event and mass layoffs you'll have the perfect storm of not being able to participate on top of not making enough money to win. Fucking nightmare.

You're not looking at your company reports? Look at your gross margin. I'm surprised they are only announcing 5k layouts after that digraceful managment.

We actually increased our gross margin from 30% to 31% or 32% and our revenue has been mostly the same but no one got any raises early this year. My heart is exploding but from rage. I feel like murdering my employee for being such a fucking cunt.

I do not fucking understand why minimum wage shit with most of the time not even full hours requires you to stress so much to get, this only used to be a thing for high paying career jobs.

I applied for a min wage admin job and they asked me to do a presentation on why I would be a great fit and choose group exercises to compete with other applicants. This is for fucking minimum wage that will barely pay for bills and food.

08 had plenty of retail and service jobs that people took but it was “beneath them “ since they previously were RE agents or subcontractors or whatever where they made a lot more money. I found work by networking after graduating in 2011 but at crappy pay. But nothing was as expensive as it is now. When real wages buy so much less, there’s a loss of quality of life. Even the service jobs in 08 still gave you a decent quality of life, but those days are gone

I work in restaurant management and my job security is unreal.
Oh you have a masters degree? That’s cute when was the last time you had to escort someone out of a restaurant because they fell asleep in the bathroom?
My competition is retarded wait staff who would need to be promoted (lol) or some other manager who, if they’re good, is just sitting comfy somewhere else.
The majority of jobs created in the last two jobs reports were in hospitality.
I can go anywhere in the US and have a job within a month.
The thing is I hate my job/the industry and I’m so comfortable here there’s no sense in leaving just to be the new guy somewhere else because the new guy always gets fucked.

This is the dilemma we face. Many fields are becoming oversaturated with applicants. Many fields that were once great are now dogshit. They pushed everyone into college, and now they are reaping what they sow. Look at China. The unemployment rate for young adults fresh out of college is about 20%. Some have moved back in with their parents and are getting paid by their parents doing choirs around the house. Not to mention the immigration of foreign people with degrees, further saturating an already fucked system. Recently, Joe Biden signed something that enables Indians a better way of coming into America or gives them more money to start their own businesses. One or the other. Not to mention many not being able to retire. Their are several elderly people at my workplace who have told me they don't think they'll retire and will die working. Wages have also become stagnated and everything is getting more expensive. While this doesn't hurt people who already have had time to save money, recent graduates trying to pay off their student loans are crippled with this since they just started making money. Many friends I know live with their parents. This system is fucked and neither the Democrats or Republicans can fix it. We're doomed.

Back in the 80s, you just needed a stable job to get a job, maybe a bit above average.

In 2023 you need to be very wealthy to get a job, even a doctor doesn't cut it, you need to have multiple houses and cars. Why? Competition, it's become so easy to get rich in 2023 thanks to years of stock boomers, crypto coins, and A.I that every idiot is now rich.

If you're not sure yet I'd stay away from 4 year college until you figure out what you want to do. You can learn a trade or go to do a 2 year degree for way cheaper than college in the meantime and see if it's for you with transferrable credit towards a bachelor's.

He's just a retarded troll trying to drag down discourse, but he does say one thing that's half-true. 2008 was a great time to partner off, everyone was poorer, couldn't afford to go out, and came together for house parties more. Much better way to meet romantic partners.

It's only half true because it's less about the material wealth and far more about the cultural attitudes and perceptions about it. The attitude in 2008 was the the economy shit the bed and that times were tough. Obama came out and told everyone it was the new normal. People were losing their houses. Expectations were more in line with reality. That cultural attitude isn't present anymore. The news media is telling everyone that things are great, and affiliate link get rich spam is the dominating the algorithm, making people (women) think it's normal.

Scary shit for the younger generation. Inherit your grandma's house and you can provide a lifestyle greater than a median wagie without ever lifting a finger. Competition becomes impossible, and a non-zero number of women will chose life in a harem over never getting their own home.

Honestly, my greatest fear is Americans losing their sense of entitlement. The moment people stop fighting to keep every shred of material they have is the moment what little they have left will be taken from them.

Still insane to not acknowledge that 2008 was heaven compared to today. It felt hell, a miserable depressing pit because it had never been worse and felt like it was impossible for it to be worse. How wrong we were.

Do not NEET. It's a fucking meme on here. If you want the big bucks immediately after graduation, go into: computer science, nursing, or accounting. Don't do STEM it's a meme. If you want really big bucks, do law and medical. Be warned you need to be rich to get into these fields. Otherwise, good luck with paying loans. Also, it will take many years to finish, and you will be the ultimate wage slave. Finally, it's hard to complete these fields. You need to be smart and devoted. Good luck, Anon.

Also, you're right about millenials, and I am one. I couldn't get any of my friends to buy houses, despite rock bottom prices. Buying a house was "Scary" and "The economy is bad".

It's not boomer tier wealth and opportunity, but it was their one chance to capture some semblance of the American dream. They just had to do what their parents did, get a job and buy a house.

Millennials and boomers both had major opportunity and prosperity that they didn't appreciate. They also refuse to acknowledge how much worse it is now than it was then.

Dude, stress is adrenaline. Adrenaline gets shit done. You're a childless permavirgin and have no concept for how much more significant shit like this feels when you have people you need to perform your best for.

You're just being a dismissive asshole with a warped view on masculinity. It's the absentee father that lives for himself, doesn't care about much, and doesn't feel anything strongly, be it good or bad. That's shit and isn't effective. It's faux masculinity.

I would punch you in the goddamn mouth if I could. Good men feel shit, and they use those emotions to make shit happen.

Talking about you, champ. (But you knew that). My parents were great. Yours didn't set you up with enough skills to find a mate and continue the bloodline. They just wanted you to shut up, and figured that telling you feeling shit somehow revokes your gender.

Military can be good if you heavily optimize your GI bill. You can collect $4,644 per month tax free from BAH if you go to UCSF or another one of the cities with high BAH, but you can commute in. If you chip away at an associates while you're in the service then you can ride GI bill all the way to a master's and be paid about $150k tax free.

Otherwise you're going to be 100k in debt at graduation, Rather than 100k ahead.

Ultimately it feels like everything is so saturated and theres no money, the only money thats left is in the untapped niche industries.
It feels like a rat race to learn all the skills to get into the niche industry, but then you realize everyone else had the same idea, so now that field is saturated. And now you have to start over.

The fact that you're still here shows that you're emotionally invested. If you didn't care you would have fucked off like you said you were going to. You dismissed a guys fear of losing his livelihood as a "who gives a fuck" but have engaged in a flame war for hours. The only reason someone does something they don't FEEL like doing is if they are forced to. Nothing's forcing you. Your emotions are keeping you here. Mine are too.

What you're doing is a sneaky sociopath manipulation trick, and you're not sharing the secret. Emotion is POWER. Emotion is PASSION. Emotion is the only reason any action gets taken EVER. The stoicism shills like you seek to get OTHERS to give up their emotion and there's their power. They give up their emotional force and you exert yours by using aggressive, emotional language in every one of your posts.

All your posts have been using emotionally charged language and you don't even realize it. You're so deep into the lie that you think you're living by the rules you set. Every person who's ever told me to shut up and not make a big deal about it is the same exact douche that will flip their shit if they think you may have tracked dirt into their truck. Assholes, every single one of them. Looking to empower themselves and weaken others.

Know what the only unproductive emotion is? Apathy. Do you know the origin of the word?

Prefix - a, meaning without
pathy - pathos, emotion, intense feeling.

That's right, the only unproductive feeling is feeling nothing. Apathy is the mindkiller, and that's what proper application of stoicism gets you.

So, to sum it up. Fuck you. You're a snake that preys on others while genuinely believing that you're doing the right thing. It's sickening. If you lived for anyone but yourself you wouldn't behave this way. It's why I was so easily able to peg you as a childless loser whose lineage will probably end with himself. (But hey, at least you had fun, right?)

You're blowing smoke. 20 years ago you'd message them on Myspace or send text messages. You didn't need to make a phone call you fucking faux boomer.

What you would do is scour the profiles of friends of friends, message the ones you wanted to target and ask "Hey, are you coming to so and so's party?". If they already have the invite then you've broken the ice and secured some mental real estate, if they haven't been invited yet you score points that way. Bonus points if you offer them a ride, because then you automatically have a context to leave the party with them and go back to their place.

No game, no charisma needed. Teenagers are all hormones and if they do any drinking at all at the event you're guaranteed sexual tension on the drive back to their place, which you can choose to exercise or not.

I personally believe the notion of "game" causes more problems than it solves. Tactical socialization just looks weird. All you have to do is talk to people and then orchestrate scenarios for you to be alone together in a non-sexual or romantic context. Any sexual tension that bubbles up out of it comes Automatically.

But what do I know. I married the second person I've dated. Doesn't stop shit from getting weird when I was dropping people off after a night out. Really flirty behavior from friends of friends, even though I'm clearly married and my wife's in the car with us.

Refute it or don't. It makes no difference to me. I get that the "Just chill and don't let shit bother you" ethos is comforting, but it's the philosophy of serfs. The people who peddle it will fire off emotion to attack you and demand you don't respond in kind.

Last thing I want to say before checking out. To all the people here who think they have "control" of their emotions, I urge you to try and force yourself to cry. Take control of your emotions and make yourself feel in such a way that tears form.

If you can't do this, understand that you don't actually have control and can't actually will yourself to feel in a manner of your choosing. You've been tricked into thinking restraining your emotions is controlling them. This keeps you docile and manageable. You've been fooled into handing over the keys to your own mind and the power that comes with it.

I wish the best for you all. Difficult times ahead for the next generation, even if nothing changes. Don't let people bully you into apathy. Choose rage over apathy if you can't will yourself to feel hope.

Yes if they are under 25 and working a low to no skill job they have that slight power over you
The one summer I took off like two weeks in July for a road trip.
The issue nowadays is there's nobody proud to work those positions anymore, there used to be someone who decided this was the best they were gonna do and career'd it.
These places won't take on the career unskilled Joe anymore. They had to accept that Joe is never gonna be anything, but if you want to keep Joe around you have to pay him like you want him to stay. Joe deserves more money because he ain't going anywhere, and maybe you pay him a few dollars over per hour and have him do a few extra jobs because he's there so much. Unskilled Joe's are dwindling because they are not being rewarded for their commitment to the unskilled wage force. Unskilled Joe gets treated the same as daquan who's on break for all 8 hours and his phone is his emotional support pet. So why should Joe bother to care about the job, care about the tasks, care about anything?
Find Joe, pay him more as a bargaining chip, and the quality of your business will improve significantly

Agree. Way too many retards i had to deal with onsite who try to act like meme tough guys. Oil rig lifestyle is like a highly paid prison. Gotta "respect" the dudes and such like theyre little gangs who get butthurt if you arent their type. Not the least the few times i almost died when retards messed up and a piece of metal almost landed on me.

Must be your job grade then. I’m under 2 years as well but For me it’s 13 weeks , when you add in paid PTO basically getting money to do nothing through December

When you free up time spent on job and use it for job search then yea pretty easy to replace that income in that span. Assuming you can get a job in 2-3 months (contrary to doomers here that’s very feasible) then you basically get paid double to fuck around

You really had to have been there to truly understand the demoralizing sludge that was coming out of the media. It was a neverending psychic assault of doom and gloom about everything at every level.

https://www.wsj.com/articles/BL-WB-25841

This was absolutely harrowing. When the goddamn president came out and called the economy the "New normal.". It felt so goddamn real; the leadership wasn't even going to hand out comforting lies anymore.

Most millennials heard that and came to the conclusion that "It's never going to get better". They stayed poor and missed their chance. I heard that and came to the conclusion that "It's only going to get worse", and I got every shred of material I could while I still could.

Anon, do not let people like OP dissuade you. The world is not a horrible place and neither is the job market. The job market is exactly what it is supposed to be like. None of us can tell you what to do, but if you have the funds, go to college. You don't even have to go to college for anything specific but you should have an end goal in mind. If as you start to take classes that would actualize that goal you realize that you can't stand it, take other classes.If someone isn't going to pay for. university, start a wagie job that has you interacting with people. Being forced to talk to people even in a limited capacity will help you increase your social skills which is probably needed for the average channer. Maybe even go to community college and that work X number of nights in a restaurant (front of house) where X is the max number that you can reasonably handle while still feeling content and able to complete schoolwork.

Whatever you do, do something. Even the NEETmaxers must do something. NEETing is kind of aristocratic, but most people do not have an aristocratic sould and end up depressed. True NEETs have legitimate accomplishments.

Remember anon, while you do this, make sure to save as much money as you can in stocks and crypto. Set up a retirement account and fund it as much as possible. Your decisions will compound, both health, financial, and general habits. Start out on the right foot.

Gee, I don't know. Maybe because we don't live in a free market economy and and results for common citizens are heavily dictated by monetary policy of the government and federal reserve? A government that has formally declared that you're fucked and they're not going to do a damn thing about it, and that you're just gonna have to suck it up, citizen.

Or maybe you could see more than a foot past your own face and realize that even if you aren't pessimistic, the pessimism of others will drag down economic activity and therefore your own opportunity, possibly spiraling into ever decreasing standards of living?

I swear, this new generation is uniquely proud of their ignorance. Very much a culture of "I don't understand or relate to a damn thing that was said, therefore it I must still be right."

The winners in that ecosystem DID get demoralized. The only difference is that they responded with panicked acquisition of assets, rather than apathy.

>muh skills

A welding program can be completed in 8 weeks. A CDL can be had in 4 weeks. Some apprenticeships can be completed in a year, and it doesn't matter how long it takes, because you're paid as an apprentice.

Get off your high horse. "Skills" are not hard to acquire. The country couldn't function if the vast majority of jobs required skills that were beyond the capability of the average person.

Yeah, Ben Bernake is Jewish, nearly all the heads of media at the time we're Jewish, and so were many of the president's advisors. Jewish people had significant contribution to the demoralizing narrative at the time.
