no one wants to work. period. that's it. no one has ever woken up and thought "boy, you know, if i could do anything i want what sounds great is doing back breaking labor for 16 hours every single day until my heart explodes at 55 and i die." no one has ever wanted this. people don't work because of work ethic or pride or anything else. they work for money (or to survive). no one wants to work in a medical billing and coding office for fun. no one drives a cab for the conversations. no one goes to work in an amazon warehouse because they're passionate about moving boxes around. they do it for money. and the instant the money isn't worth the effort, they won't do the job. if they can't afford what they need no matter how many hours they put in, why bother working? these fucking boomers somehow can't comprehend this simple concept. work ethic is fake. people work for money. they always have, and they always will. if you want people to work hard and show up on time, you have to pay them. and if you don't want to pay them enough money for them to make end's meet, they're not going to work for you. it's that simple. there is no conspiracy here. work ethic hasn't disappeared. what's vanished is a good wage in exchange for a job well done. no one gives a fuck if opening this hardware store is your dream. to everyone else it's just a paycheck. and they won't work for you if you won't pay. understand that and act accordingly.
