Beef Jerky Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I have probably read 20 "millenials are moving to (blank)" articles. They seem to love dead rust belt cities, since those are very ironic. probably b.c they are cheap places to live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Poojer Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 and a lot of them seem to be of the creative type so they tend to make the places look newer and more appealing...as much as i "hate" hipsters(i really don't), they certainly seem to be able to revive dying and rundown areas probably b.c they are cheap places to live.

Well, you know, despising young workers because we grew up getting participation trophies from the same people now deriding the act...it's, uh, I guess what you'd call...hypocrisy?

Anyone need a young whipper snapper with a shiny new masters degree to work for them? Not BFLO becasue there really is no industry there anymore. But... South of Chicago, kinda just like BFLO but much, much bigger and really, really close to being what BFLO was... If that is even possible now. If you are looking for real nostalgia. Millenials really don't like to labor though. Can you do this, these are all Xers, then you got a job making very decent money. This is what my BA got me... LoL: Use a magnesium cutting torch: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LWgge13QM0 Shoveling sh*t in "The Pit of Despair" Love it when a boomer tries to tell me that I'm spoiled Let me guess... You can't be "managed." They got a book about guys like you! You're going to have to wait until Chef returns it back at the library. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chef Jim Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Love it when a boomer tries to tell me that I'm spoiled So you're saying us baby boomers are spoiled? We were raised by people who grew up during the depression. We are anything but spoiled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeviF Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 So you're saying us baby boomers are spoiled? We were raised by people who grew up during the depression. We are anything but spoiled. Your generation was/is a plague on America. To argue otherwise belies a complete lack of self-awareness that (guess who) only a boomer could possibly show. Ridiculous national debt? Check. Completely pillaged the best economy America's ever seen? Check. Mortgaged the future so they could live in excess in the present? Check. Don't even get me started on Obamacare, a program that your generation overwhelmingly supports because, surprise surprise, you don't have to pay for it. The cost of the ACA rests squarely on the shoulders of my generation because your generation drank and smoked and screwed and ate their way into massively expensive health problems in their 60's and 70's. Your generation has this ridiculous perception of gratitude. When they were handed the reins, they were the reins to the unparalleled, unquestionable world economic superpower. Now they're handing it off to us, acting like it's the same damn thing. In reality, it's a crumbling has-been. Everyone in the world sees that but them. And they all act like they taught the damn world to sing and we should be grateful for the house with peeled paint and four mortgages they're handing us. Most of the Boomers I know don't fit the stereotypes I tend to toss around about them, but it's really hard not to look at the size of voting blocs by age and the political changes that came and went over the last 40 years or so. Those changes have pretty clear impacts that obviously benefit those of certain ages when those changes occurred, and don't benefit other groups the same way. The mentality was all about "me me me right now" which is the epitome of spoiled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
