Is it just me or are young adults under the age of 25 just plain lazy?

    It's not just people under 25. ALL IMMIGRANTS, EXCEPT HISPANIC, ARE LAZY MOFOS. They need "help" to do anything. They need help to take a dump.

    See, i think there should be a new show called "Immigrant Idol." For example, one of the segments there would be a pile of bricks on the sidewalk. The object of the round would be to get the bricks to the 6th floor of the building.

    Now, take a wild guess as to which immigrant group will get it up there the fastest (if at all) and do it without any complaint or plead for help whatsoever?

    And if they display a poor work ethic, their feelings will become a self-fulfilling prophecy.

    I actually find most immigrants are NOT lazy and seem to be the ones doing the work.
    White kids are the lazy ones.
    Any corner store, fast food, gas station, pretty much any low paying service job you will find an immigrant. You dont see many white kids doing thise jobs.
    Harvest time here in the valley first year of covid the farmers were asking for students from the local university to come work as the usual foreign harvest teams (mexican) couldn't get across the border ..... the white, student union president did an interview saying the work was beneath the students and a waist of their time.
    Yes he was that stupid. The abuse he took was well warranted.

    "Acadia Students’ Union president Brendan MacNeil says university students who are without summer jobs due to the pandemic shouldn’t be expected to take available work on farms.

    “It is true that there is an unmet supply and demand between agriculture and student labour, but making that request of students who are preparing to be accountants, doctors, teachers, and researchers is akin to asking our farmers to fill job vacancies in call centres,” MacNeil said in a written statement to The Chronicle Herald.

    “It’s something they could do, but would be very difficult and arbitrary to transition into, given the value their specific skills provide to society. It is the same with students, we are working to develop our skills and find jobs in our fields that will leave us, and in the end society, with a larger lasting impact.”

    At a time when unemployment is at its highest in living memory in this province, many farmers are not able to get their crops in because Nova Scotians won’t take the jobs on offer."

    You know I always told my oldman that having 3 boys was alot of cheap labor.

    Now there is a family of 14 kids a few miles from me. Their Dad owns a construction company. Everyone boy, or girl worked for him at one time or another. They are all adults and successful at this time.

    You don't pay workers compensation on family.

    It isn't what generation that you grow up in. It is how you were raised. Parents make the kids what they are.

    This is because there is something wrong with society and education. Or maybe they read the book of poor dad and rich dad. LOL!

    Not to completely resurrect an old thread,, but... as everyone is doing their wills, deciding what goes where, hopefully the wealthiest among us will resist the urge to leave it ALL to our entitled spawn, and maybe send the bulk of our wealth to charities that will do good with it.
