I made a major improvement in my ability to not give a fuck about my job.
I work in American retail.
I didn't know you could insert that here. I just needed that on my previous comment.
Thanks.Don't give a fuck about it. Get a skilled labor job. Retail is soul-sucking. You want to be the guy who can build a work shed out of a pile of wood, not the guy who knows where the aisle of tuberware is.
Can't I just not be a guy and be done with it? Lol, my boobs would thank me for sure.
Sorry I didn't mean "guy" like male, but that isn't an excuse I should have chosen my words more carefully.
There is nothing wrong with women in the trades. I was in Bangkok for vacation this year and saw an army sized group of women working a construction site. All of them much physically smaller than I am.
Hey, you're all good. I was just messing with you. I know you weren't implying anything. Haha.
Electricians are well paid and among the least physical trades
Do they make as much money over a lifetime as a Washington DC based economist? Which one adds actual value to the world?
The economist makes more money, the electrician adds more value.
I can elaborate but you can imagine the world muddling along without people telling you about inelastic demand but society would collapse in about two weeks if all the tradespeople disappeared.
Sure and think about how better things would be.
Besides for Keynes all economists worldwide thought the New Deal would be a failure. Meanwhile the US recovered first.
Only a fraction of economists think the bank bailouts were a bad idea and the US lost over a decade when you look at the Workforce Participation Rate and CEO-to-worker pay ratio.
No economists thinks student loan debt amnesty is a good idea. Meanwhile the percent of people seeking degrees continues to drop, the age of first time homeowners continues to rise, the number of small businesses started is falling, and the fertility rate hits new lows.
It isn't that economists keep getting it wrong. It is that they are paid to advance agendas. It is like a lawyer, you don't pay a lawyer to find justice and fairness, you pay a lawyer to be your champion. An economist is paid by financial institutions to be a zealous advocate. Which is why there is a lobbyist company whose entire job is to sit economists on congressional hearings and advance the client's viewpoint.
Meanwhile our infrastructure rots.
What's wrong with you?
Don't make it personal, answer the question or don't.
I reiterate their statement: what the fuck is wrong with you?
And no, we won't answer the question as it's a question with absolutely no possible answer since it completely depends on how you define the form that value takes. All you're doing is trying to stir up animosity. Well, it's working.
Kindly fuck off.
Sorry your job adds no value. Must be hard.
points at you
Rude.
Most of my work is designing stuff for the sanitation-recycling complex. Which varies from feces to recycling building material to agriculture waste.
The dude above was agreeing with you and you attacked. You're deranged.
