50 years ago an 18 year old could walk into a factory and stand in the same spot performing his stage of assembly all day. The work was mindless drone work but it was work. Today the options are starbucks or home depot for 1/4 of what the factory jobs pay. Could you get up every morning and go to one of those jobs?
I couldn't get up every day and do an assembly line job without shooting myself. The repetitiveness would drive me insane. I also look at jobs like insulators, dog groomers, and roofers and wonder how they so their jobs day in and day out without eating a bullet. While I don't care for most of the general public, walking around Home Depot moving a few boxes and talking to people seems like the better choice. What's your point?
