Boomers say that shit because back when they were young, you could actually advance by working hard in a shitty job. Of course, they pulled the ladder up once they got to the cushy positions.
Yup. The guy who came to america to mow lawns is definitely killing it because he had it easy. Or maybe the guy who came to work in a field… or in a car auto manufacturer… wait that went out of business… hmmmm oh yes the guy who is now a manager at your local burger king, yeah he had it easy. Fuck him. The median wage across the US is 54k though so maybe its only some select people.
54k is barely a living wage these days. You CAN live on it, but you can’t expect to start a family or buy a house or achieve anything resembling The American Dream.
Im replying to your blanket comment that boomers in general have it easier which they absolutely dont. You like to cherry pick the happy ending stories where boomers sit on their manegerial high chairs like crying babies and choose to ignore that MOST people are struggling right now, boomer or not. Dont discredit hard work.
The boomers had everything easier than we do today aside from the ability to gather information. This ability, by the way, is how we know they had it easy. They’re the true participation trophy generation, and honestly it’s hard for me to tell the difference between a boomer and a high end projector, since they both only do the same thing, it’s just the projector has inherent value.
You want to live the official lifestyle your grandparents had? Move to Mozambique and dont look at the internet for 30 years. They are just starting to move to first world status (50 years ago) can get that good old fashioned projector/participation trophy you dream of. I am sure you can easily work your way to the top.
Five simple actions for a healthier, lower sodium eating pattern:
Fill your plate (and stomach) with fresh fruits and vegetables. Fruits and vegetables are naturally low in sodium and contain potassium which may help reduce blood pressure and risk for other medical conditions.
Select herbs, spices and fresh lemon or lime juice to season your foods. Choosing sodium free seasonings provides plenty of flavor without the negative effects of salt. Give yourself time to adjust to the new tastes.
Enjoy more home cooked meals. Restaurant meals tend to be very high in sodium. By doing more home food preparation you can significantly decrease your overall salt consumption.
Stop eating when you are satisfied. In the Japanese city of Okinawa they refer to this as “Hara hachi bu.” This translates to “eat until you are 80 percent full.” By decreasing your overall portion of food consumed, you will decrease your salt intake. The people of Okinawa have the lowest rates of heart disease, cancer and stroke. And they have one of the largest centenarian populations!
Thanks for the advice. I actually have low sodium so my doctor prescribed the opposite of this already. Suck my dick bud, you can get your low sodium that way
Oh, Mozambique? The Mozambique that is “disappearing” journalists who try and investigate the dirty “counter-insurgency” operation happening in the north of the country because the Moz government is intent on allowing Total to loot it’s energy reserves at the expense of the local populace?
Yeah, Clyde… that sounds totally 1st world to me. Totally not a country still at the beck and call of the Global North’s exploitation at all.
Lol wow i say things not in your dickass b cluster club and so i should be avoided. Congratulations, you have officially had your first dialogue with someone outside of your bubble. I bet you would rather I name myself xXx420KillAllPolice69xXx am i right? Smash that bell icon for more racist bullshit takes.

Back then it was called “a fair days work”.
It hasn’t been “fair” for a long time.
What’s that I hear, you don’t want to be on call after hours for no extra pay?
Sounds like you’re not much a team player. And only team players get to work here.
If I get a PhD (which I have to pay for) and work for twenty years in my job, my salary caps out at ~60k.
What field? That’s wild to me, and horribly unjust.
Teaching.
I’m sorry to hear that, education is absolutely criminally undervalued by society.

Depends on where you live. Some parts of America are dirt cheap, including housing. Although those areas typically have shit wages too.
Shit wages, shit school systems, shitheel neighbors. Like I said, far from the “American Dream”.
Dirt cheap places have dirt cheap wages.

Maybe some boomers don’t now, but relatively speaking they absolutely DID have it easier when they were my age.
I’m not discrediting hard work. I’m simply stating the fact that “hard work” 50 years ago was apparently worth more than “hard work” today.
The person you’re replying to used to be named PatFussy.
I wouldn’t engage with them if I were you. They cleaned up their act a little bit with the new handle, but they still just routinely say dumb shit.
