@justinerickson @LukeAlmighty @WashedOutGundamPilot >The labor laws were put in place because people were working well past 40 hours a week and not getting compensated for it.

that's a condition of the early-mid industrial revolution, not pre-industrial society

@deprecated_ii @LukeAlmighty @WashedOutGundamPilot you mean pre-industrial society when people were literally slaves because of debt? All of those things sucked but it sounds pretty weak minded and entitled to act as though we are living in the worst of times because $20/hr isn’t catching up with inflation.

@justinerickson @LukeAlmighty @WashedOutGundamPilot congratulations, you've fallen hard for the very propaganda designed to make you think the modern world isn't total shit

@deprecated_ii @LukeAlmighty @WashedOutGundamPilot Woke people are thinking the modern world is total shit too. Do you agree with them? I think the modern world is turning to shit because of little shits who have little honor, little morality, no grit and are full of entitlement while having low self worth that want to destroy what could actually be the easiest time for any generation ever. Spoiled brats that are quick to be offended and never feel shame and enjoy destroying everything in fits.

@justinerickson @LukeAlmighty @WashedOutGundamPilot 🤨 do you really think I'm going to change my mind about something because some retards think the same thing for totally different reasons

@deprecated_ii @LukeAlmighty @WashedOutGundamPilot ya and you assume I should think the world is going to shit the same way as you because you can’t figure out how to put a roof over your head or some shit in a very easy world when it comes to that sort of thing. Especially right now where employers are all seeking employees. If you were stupid enough to rack up student loan debt or something, that’s not my fault nor did anybody stick a gun to your head. Figure it out. The world won’t.

In a world, where employers are seeking employees below the market value. I work 9-5, but I am seeking a f-35b lightning. Does it mean, that you can sell it to me? Hell no.

That is such a retarded argument.

@LukeAlmighty @deprecated_ii @WashedOutGundamPilot there are no employees willing to work. Do you really think people are just being greedy or something? It’s called inflation. It sucks. But this isn’t the worst job market or standard of living the world has ever seen. At least not right now.

My lazyness does not cause inflation.
My boss's greed does not cause inflation.

You know as well as I do what does cause it. And it isn't wokeness either. So, what exactly are you arguing about again?

@LukeAlmighty @deprecated_ii @WashedOutGundamPilot you guys are belly aching. You’re the ones arguing that you have it tougher than any civilization for 20k years.

Belly ache on. I’m sure you will without my permission or any rational thought, right? Keep thinking employers don’t need employees. Not like you need a fighter jet. Like you need milk in your fridge.

@justinerickson @LukeAlmighty @WashedOutGundamPilot your argument boils down to saying "things can't possibly be that screwed up" which is not compelling

meanwhile in the real world companies will demand unicorn applicants -- very high qualifications and experience relative to the actual job, willing to work for mediocre pay -- and leave positions empty for years rather than lower their standards
@justinerickson @LukeAlmighty @deprecated_ii @WashedOutGundamPilot You're speaking to a group of fairly capable men who are actually looking for work, moron. We've seen and experienced the wages of the job market, and your reality is entirely wrong.
