every fucking job on the market wants 2 years experience

I drive for uber, looking into trucking, I've found literally 1 job listing that said no experience required

why am I being told that there is such a shortage of workers in every industry, apparently the average age of a trucker is 58 according to an article I just read, this is the most annoying part of the boomers and boomer gen x cuspers to me, they never fucking leave the workplace, gtfo you degenerate fucks, I literally only worked about 2 full years in my 20s, and my goal is to work 5-10 more years and then retire from the "workforce" and set up my hustles and ride markets

what the fuck man

on one hand I'm being gaslit that I have no ambition and I need to get "skills", on the other hand every job wants 2 years experience

I mean, should I just drive uber until it doesn't exist anymore, it seems like the only tolerable option, over being any kind of wagie, I literally have a full beard and long hair, I literally haven't showered in over a week, I shower like once a month maybe, my family tells me I should clean up, yet my ratings on uber are high, the people I deliver to literally treat me better than my own family, just lol

I don't need that much money, just like 300k something like that in todays value and I'll bounce, fuck this society, everyone is retarded yet pretends they know everything at the same time

nah, I'm saying, in this case if I get my cdl, they already want 2 years trucking experience

how does that make any sense, where are the jobs for people just entering trucking, they literally don't exist, or they do exist yet these greedy fucking faggot boomers hate us so unbelievably much that even though they need us they still refuse to hire us

Do you have your CDL? If not go work for Swift or some other shitty mega corp. They will train you and pay for you to get your license (of course you'll have to sign a contract with them, and spend a year or two team driving with poo in loo's) After you get a few years under your belt try to specialize in something like hazmat work. Your still only looing at 30-35 an hour and 60+ hrs 6 days a week after all of that.

[Anonymous No.55506006]

>>55505973
no I don't

yea, I don't know man, on the surface trucking seems good in my situation, but then I just consider the fact, 4000 dollars to take the cdl course, go through the application and hiring process, despite the supposed "high demand" for truckers, still possible to not get any work

how is this any better than just driving my car to any really busy city for ubering and driving 60 hours a week, sleeping in my car instead of a truck, save 200 bucks a day atleast, would be a little bit higher as a trucker probably but deal with more shit

that's the beauty of having no real barrier to entry

Once you have a few years experience, you will be in "high demand", but there's a million non english speakers ready to be steering wheel holders too.

Shower for hygiene, not smell. They're not the same thing. Sweating is healthy, letting your skin secrete its natural oils is healthy, but you need to keep your ass clean. Wash your hands, wash your ass and genitals, wash your face and hair. Take a shower every few days.

how am I a troll, I just listed the costs vs benefits

also talked about the job market, it seems pretty shit tier, if these faggots really needed truckers that bad then the requirements wouldn't be so high

>>55506045
I suppose, but I don't really care about being in "high demand" that much, I want enough money to build a fort in the woods

Companies don't want to pay extra to train people. Hell they really don't want to hire anyone unless they are the perfect candidate that can jump right in and take full responsibilities because otherwise they are content with laying people off and having their skeleton crews take on even more work.

There's about to be a massive crisis across multiple industries. Boomers don't train their juniors, they're terrified of being replaced. Then they retire and take all of that institutional knowledge with them. It's not even a matter of being more intelligent than Millennials (they aren't), but they've had the privilege of working continuously - mostly because that work actually supports a decent living - and built up knowledge over those years. Millennials could learn the ropes in a fraction of the time, but you see so many of use with a spotty work history because jobs are set up to be unsustainable. You have to bounce from company to company, city to city, trying to piece together skills as you go. Most Millennials don't have deep knowledge of a specific craft but they have a wide understanding of the field they're in for this reason. It's held against us, "Oh if you're so smart about [industry] why don't you know [exceedingly specific task which probably should have been automated away 20 years ago but wasn't because Boomer literally can't do anything else and would die starving in a gutter if that job was taken away from them]."

I'm tired of this dynamic. I just want an on-ramp to a sustainable, dignified adulthood. That's all. I don't need a new car, I don't need a mansion, I don't need to eat out every night. I didn't do anything fun or frivolous in my 20s, I poured money into the Maturity Moloch like a good little adult and then had nothing when I got rug-pulled. Just memories of doing push-ups and arguing on the internet in my basement apartment. And they wonder why I don't care, why I would be happy to see a market crash.

it's funny, the commercial drivers license didn't exist in most states before 1986

just basic common sense, there probably wasn't a 4000 dollar course required, just show up and be hired

literally every industry is like that now

You need a boomer connection. I'm a fresh grad in my 20s and I've had a project director calling me up assuring me that I'll be onboarded to the company shortly just because my uncle was a previous bigshot boomer at the company. I was NEET for 2 years previous to this with dozens of failed interviews.

Boomers know the younger gen hates their guts so when they see a zoomer who actually (pretends to) look up to them and seeks out their mentorship they pour out all their pent-up father-figure energy into putting you on the right path, to fix their own personal subconscious regrets about failing in taking leadership in every single relationship of their personal life like with their sons, wife, other younger employees, etc.

You just need to get one bigshot boomer to like you somehow and you're set. Nepotism is the easiest path.

>he thinks the cushy, high-paying jobs boomers currently have will go to future generations after boomers retire/die
Boomers have finally started to fuck off at my employer (one of the biggest corporations in America). They aren't promoting internally or hiring externally to fill these positions. They just reassign whatever the boomer used to do among everyone else, with no accompanying raises of course, despite our record profits and recession-proof industry. (((Executives))) are treating the jobs boomers leave behind as shrunken payroll, not a birthright to future generations. Yet another exit scam "fuck you" from that generation.

Basically boomers are in all positions of power. What's the one thing boomers have? Experience. Therefore it makes sense that boomers like to gatekeep everything behind experience because that's where they are the strongest at. It's extremely destructive to zoomers and millennials but ye boomers don't give a fuck lmao.
