Hey dumb frick, you remember 07-08 when the current Mid 30's Millennials were graduating college and looking to get on the ladder?
You dumb fricks pulled it up. But not only did you pull it up, you also ran policy to save your old asses at the expense of the same group who now faced the worse job market since your parents were alive . We then had to get even more advanced in ways to navigate tOG shite economy. Finally on the precipice post 2016 and again if you missed the boat before it left in 2019 you are GIGA screwed now.
Luckily for me I am married and have a home in the year 2024 as a 38 year old. However, lets not sit here and speak from the podium like 30-40 year olds have/had it so fricking easy
Yes, thank you thank you. I was hitting the job market right when it was all going down in 2008/2009, nobody was hiring and a good chunk of us were underemployed for years after that. Finally got a stable position and had to take two pay freezes at the beginning of my career. My wife and I are doing fine now, we want for nothing and live a good life, but I'd be lying if I didn't say I often wonder how much better we'd be doing if we hadn't had to deal with that.
And now our local school board which is made up of a majority of boomers, has run the district into the ground financially because of their selfish policies and it will cost a lot of young teachers their jobs. They were stunned that all of a sudden we had a 3 million dollar deficit. Again they got theirs and then they are like whoops our bad, sorry when everyone else is left holding th bag.
