I trained a 27 year old know it all today. I tell him I work everyday and they are 12 hour shifts..

And he says “well I only work part-time because I value my time”😌 and I was like “time is MONEY”!!😡.. with that being said .. He’ll probably be my boss in 5 months 😭

Been there, done that and likely worse. Turned out he didn't even have a GED much less than a highschool diploma. And they actually made him a boss much later on the condition that he got his GED, which they paid for.

They want them young, not experienced.

This was concerning hazardous materials. He hadn't even taken the state mandated certifications that most of us had.

@DeWayfarer in the real world, education don't mean Jack squat

@CestManan actually it does. Just not in the traditional sense of a better job necessarily.

It's good for critical thinking which in many jobs it's not necessary anymore. Thanks to our technology.

Yet when it comes to hazardous materials. You better be darn critical in your thinking or it's dangerous for many. Not just one or two. Their lives are in the hands of those who think critically.

You should value your time more.

@ScarletWitch all I do is get drunk ..

ScarletWitch · 31-35, F

@SW-User you should do much more than that. Working vs time. So much youth gone because of it. In the end money won't matter. How much you spent your time will.

@ScarletWitch May I ask what you do that makes you say that ? .. you seem well off financially.. how do you make your money?..

@ScarletWitch I still need to work full time though when and if I can go back to work.

@iamonfire696 that wholly depends on your job and your experience. I know some freelance developers who $150 an hour. If they work 20 hours a week it would be comfortable.
