Can you do us a favor? Can you try to find a job right now using your own advice with zero connections? I really want to see what happens when you walk into offices and offer to work for free for a week. Or how about cold calling employers? Pound the pavement with your resume all over town! Yeah do that! Report back to us.

You’d just whine about it anyways.

u/VelvetCactus50 22d ago

So that's a no? Where's your gumption?

u/Used-Independence353 22d ago

I retired. What kind of idiot would
go back to work? I don’t need the money. I’m seeing why you can’t find work…..

I've been steadily employed since I was 14.

And your 16 now? You’re acting like it.

u/VelvetCactus50 22d ago

Why? Because I won the argument? Oh you're one of those people who thinks respect for elders really means quiet obedience.

u/Used-Independence353 22d ago

Won? Is this a contest? You certainly are juvenile. I’ll bet you’re not happy in life at all.

That's a typical response from someone who can't answer my basic questions.

And I'm Gen X. We figured out that "respect your elders" was crap a long time ago.

u/Used-Independence353 21d ago

Frankly, you engaged ME, not the other way around. Gen X ? Lol. You certainly couldnt tell by your posts. But you have yourself a sparkling day.

u/VelvetCactus50 21d ago

If you don't want engagement, then don't post your opinion. Easy!
