Why do americans work at shitty minimum wage jobs straight out of high school? I know that college can be a huge scam and is often not worth it but literally just learn a trade. Why are americans so retarded and only know the two extremes of going to an ivy league school and ending up with 60k debt or working 3 minimum wage jobs and then whining about the shitty economy? They all act like fucking maniacs and force themselves into bad positions to then whine about it.

Because people aren't taught its an option, people think highschool college is the only way to success. when in actuallity its probably the longest most costly and least succesful way. Schools are designed to create a working class

I agree. For most people learning a trade would be easier, more interesting and more profitable then going to college for some overfilled meme degree. Honestly, any electrician here makes a good amount of money during his apprenticeship and has decent salary afterwards. After 5-10 years he can start his own company and with hard work, knowledge and a little bit of luck he's making more than 60% of college grads ever will.

Where? $17/hour here. Maybe distribution centers pay like $11-14/hour but no place pays minimum wage. Cheapest factory around here starts at $15/hour.

Thanks. My Dad keeps telling me this.

This place is full of lazy people. Most people in here are in their 40s and 50s and have been working here since they were my age. This place has been 90% automated since they started. They hardly do any work. They think taking out the trash and cleaning up their work place is back breaking work.

Was talking to a guy the other day about how easy it was here and he was all "there's more to it man than you think it's hard in here" yet all he does is ride around on a fork lift and talk on the radio. He doesn't know what real work is. I'm going to stay here and get paid to stand around until I can't stand the people anymore. They are so fucking lazy and complain about anything. Their line will go down and the Supervisor will make them go help another line and they get all pissy because they didn't get to just sit there until maintenance fixed their line.

95% of people have to start at the bottom. It gets better as you get experienced and doors start opening.

A good work ethic will get you a long way in life, stay strong and keep going. Don't take the easy option and quit unless you have something better lined up.

Get certified on a forklift. Guys here make $22/hour cruising around on a fork truck all night while talking about sports and pussy on their radios. I want to get certified but supervisor says I would have to wait until after my 90 days.

What the fuck are you talking about? Trades are fucking dogshit, dude. I am so sick of people who have never worked a day in their life talking about how trades are better than white collar work. It's not fun waking up at 4 or 5 am to be on your feet all fucking day, coming home smelling like shit, having a hard hard cap on your pay, and severely limiting your skill set. Yeah dude, just wait 5-10 years and start your own company!! You are so inexperienced that it's embarrassing. You really think it's some sort of assembly line from apprenticeship to owner. Lol. You tradefags are so much more delusional than collegefags. Can't wait til you get to the real world

It runs the gamut though you are going to work hard. There are a lot of millionaires and a lot of guys collecting food stamps. Luck and personal decisions are the biggest factors.

Jesus, OP, I hope you are getting $40/hr to endure that type of work environment
