Can't Get Work, Hate Your Job?

Then you're missing one of the biggest opportunities of a lifetime.
I know if I was young, I'd be jumping for joy over this.
I won't burden you with story after story of businesses struggling to find employees, I'm sure you've all seen it for yourself, but these kids sitting on their asses are fools.

My neighbor is 24, didn't really look for work because he was told everyone was laid off work, yes, he watched TV.
That is, until I started asking around about business hiring, they all were, they all need people NOW!!!

There was a small off-road dealership where I bought my Polaris, though I swore I'd never buy another Polaris because they went woke, (I bought a new Kawasaki instead, built in Oklahoma).
The dealership sold out and the new owner fired everyone, simply because they sucked, kept one key employee.

So I thought I'd give them a chance on repair, the new owner said they'd be delighted to work on my POS Polaris RZR, but they had one problem, no mechanics.
I said I knew a bright kid, asked what they pay, he said $15.0 to start, prove themselves and $35.0 an hour in 3 months or less.

I told the kid to get his ass over there, he did and he is tickled, he now has a new career in a field he loves.
He had zero experience to show, never really had a job before, but he loved working on cars and tricking them out.
Long story short, the owner thanked me for sending him over, they love the kid.

So my point in all of this is, people have simply stopped working because unemployment paid better to sit on their lazy asses, so they literally forfeited their position in line, and people that really want to work can jump the line and the skies are the limit.

Case in point, take trucking for example...

Going thru some hard times wouldn't hurt.


Years from now, I hope that kid passes it on and remembers what you did.  :thumbup:

He's a good kid considering his dad is a loser drunk, mom booted him and married her childhood sweetheart, who wound up in the joint, but it straightened him out.
So I've become a mentor to him, and he listens well. He's a solid Conservative which made it easy.

I'll be on him to stay the path.  :glare:  :biggrin:
