This is like something a czar would write. And not one of the smart ones, one of the dumb ones.

It's like mega-communism.

Mike Rowe was a theater major at Yale, an opera singer, an infomercial host, and had a TV show about LARPing other peoples' jobs.

Those are all the jobs he has had.

All these leftists on Sup Forums
I love it

>desperately trying to derail and control the narrative

This is a perfect example of how racism is used to confuse you and keep you from understanding the problems in the world.

I don't eat soy, I eat raw onions so I can be a more obedient and efficient worker and bring more value for my boss. He gets the money nd the power, and I feel satisfied in knowing he values me. It's the American way

I honestly agree with everything on this pledge. Seems that Sup Forums is full of children, teenagers, neets and poor people. Some things they all have in common is that they blame others for their problems, they think that complaining is a valid solution to a problem and they expect handouts because they don't take initiative or responsibility for themselves.

What have you done today to uphold Xi Jinping Thought?

I'm half way through a pack of Chunghwas atm. Money in the CCP's pocket.

>Americans think Trump is an alpha male

Who ITT is doing any of that? Or are you just desperate to slide the thread?

You posted Trump and called us soy, so I don't know what is confusing you now.

>>desperately trying to derail and control the narrative
not trying to derail or control the narrative, I'm more or less in agreement with everyone except this mong
>This is a perfect example of how racism is used to confuse you and keep you from understanding the problems in the world.
Not sure if I'm racist or not (depends on your definition), but I was mostly using the jew meme because it's a handy archetype. I don't have anything against jews in particular. The point in my post was to highlight the abject servility and, for lack of a better word, cuckoldry that the OP glorifies.

AHHAAHhahaha GET IT?!?!? I CALLED THEM SOYYYYYYYYYYYYYCialists BECAUSE SOY HAS WEAK BIOCHEMICAL COMPOUNDS THAT RESEMBLE HUMAN ESTROGEN AND WOMEN HAVE ESTROGEN AND WOMEN LIKE MEN SO THAT MAKES YOU GAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY HAHAHAHAHAHGHAHAGAHGAHAGAHAAHAHAHAHA EKSDEEEEEEEEEEE

You live in a country exactly opposite of what is written on that paper
You are either a sheltered manchild or a corporate shill
Possibly both

>I literally cannot stop sucking boomer cock
Alright man, we get it

>poor people blame others for their problems

...Yes?

Are you serious? The thread is full of people blaming jews and boomers for their pathetic lives.
>let me tell you about your country
We have to go to work like everyone else and put in work if we want to be anything else than a poorfag neet loser.

>I honestly agree with everything on this pledge.
you sound like a slavish half-man.

>Some things they all have in common is that they blame others for their problems
Anyone of reasonable intelligence can tell when something's their fault and when they're being fucked over. Blaming yourself to the point where you allow others to take advantage of you is not virtuous, it's just called being a loser.

> they think that complaining is a valid solution to a problem
When there's something wrong with a situation the people in charge need to be informed. If they get offended by reasonable criticism then they don't deserve to be in charge. Again anyone with a shred of intelligence can use their discretion.

>don't take initiative or responsibility for themselves.
Taking initiative means doing things for yourself, not being a pushover.

We all know that some people have been unlucky, but it's also true that a lot of poor people are poor because of their own failures. A lot of them are unironically lazy, make bad life decisions, spend money beyond their means and have poor financial skills.

Now you can sit there and make arguments that explain why some people are poor because of the specific conditions in their area, and some of those arguments may even be true, but putting blame on people isn't going to put any money in your bank. The main goal of this pledge is to go out and do what you can to improve your situation into something better. It will get you a lot further than if you do it the opposite way.

In my country we have to put in work even just to be poor.

>We have to go to work like everyone else and put in work if we want to be anything else than a poorfag neet loser.
and you have to have some self-respect if you want to be anything other than the doormat shrewd people walk on as they climb the ladder. Enjoy watching all of your colleagues advance while you're stuck in your shit situation because you convinced yourself that a) you deserve it and b) it's wrong to expect better.

Wait, you just admit that I'm right but say that won't magically make me rich?

Okay.

Actually, psychologically, the "leader" authoritarian and the "follower" authoritarian are the same type. The way they talk depends on their social status, but they're not alphas and betas, they're just authoritarians.

>A lot of them are unironically lazy, make bad life decisions, spend money beyond their means and have poor financial skills.
It's called having low-IQ. It's genetic and there's no cure.

>The main goal of this pledge is to go out and do what you can to improve your situation into something better. It will get you a lot further than if you do it the opposite way.
The goal of this pledge is to get suckers to improve the lives of smarter people while degrading themselves.

The sociopath who does well is neither a leader or a follower. He's just fundamentally self-interested.

The pledge doesn't say that you should accept terrible conditions and roll down like a floor mat. He literally suggests that you move on with your life and find something better if you're not happy with your job.

You seem to completely miss the general theme of the pledge, which is basically just to have a certain mindset which makes you an attractive employee. Following some of this simple guidelines will more likely have you advancing, rather than your dumb lazy colleagues. You call me slavish, but you're the one interpreting this pledge like a slave. It's like you can't think for yourself and apply these principles to fit your individual life.

>tfw my country doesn't have these dreaded so called boomers
Thanks Stalin

My salary literally got halved in 2014

That pledge doesn't say you're going to be a millionaire, it's just telling you to do the best with what you've got. When you choose to interpret good work ethic as slave mentality it says a lot.

Mike Rowe majored on Opera singing and has literally never worked a day in his entire life. He does voice acting and narration. For his show "dirty jobs" he played around in mud for about 40 minutes at a time before going to his air conditioned trailer.

That's not "a good work ethic." It's blatantly slave shit. It literally begins by praising jesus you were born in the US and then says there is -no such thing as a bad job.-

>Thank you government for fucking me in the arse. I will do anything because the game was rigged from the beginning and I was unfortunate enough to not be born as a part of the elite. I am enthusiastic about slowly killing myself because of bad work conditions and lack of any opportunities
God bless

Note also he never talked to the people drudging on assembly lines hanging chicken carcasses sewing sneakers or what have you. He talked to welders. Farm owners. Pipe fitters.Electricians. People with honestly very good jobs I would kill for instead of having to read a script into a phone hundreds of times per day.

You have ex commie elite larping as patriotic nationalists instead(same as us)

No, faggot. Let me keep track of your points for you I guess.

>Now you can sit there and make arguments that explain why some people are poor because of the specific conditions in their area, and some of those arguments may even be true, but putting blame on people isn't going to put any money in your bank.

12 pleads saying basically 'DON'T YOU DARE!!'

All hopes are pinned on China now.

You're fucking stupid.

Look at this stupid paper, it literally says there are no bad jobs. It basically tells you to accept anything from your boss.

It's like if corporations are responsible for nothing.

>The pledge doesn't say that you should accept terrible conditions and roll down like a floor mat.
following this pledge necessitates laying down like a doormat.

>He literally suggests that you move on with your life and find something better if you're not happy with your job.
Following the pledge to the letter means you have to find either find a brand new job or put up with every issue that you have. It makes much more sense to negotiate with your boss. If you do something for the boss, ask for something in return. It's that simple.

>
You seem to completely miss the general theme of the pledge
It's a pledge, they're not supposed to be about vague themes.

>which is basically just to have a certain mindset which makes you an attractive employee.
It emphasises being a "good employee" over important things like enjoying your work, making money etc. Note that "good employee" nearly always refers to obedience, not value brought to the company etc. It's basically a guidebook on how to never be anything more than middle management at best.

>Following some of this simple guidelines will more likely have you advancing, rather than your dumb lazy colleagues. You call me slavish, but you're the one interpreting this pledge like a slave.
It's a pledge, he doesn't say "this is a tactic that might be useful in certain situations", he's acting like behaving this way is a virtuous thing that one should "pledge" to do.

>It's like you can't think for yourself and apply these principles to fit your individual life.
The fact that you think these are "principles" is why I called you slavish.


This is American corporate culture at its worst. Designed to gyp mediocre people out of their time and energy.

He seems to be under the impression that there isn't thousands of people vying for those jobs and currently in school to get to be one of them.

The millwright program at a college near me has a 2 year waitlist because it's so fucking packed.

Mike Rowe is a shill for big business. His entire shtick is just a scheme to saturate skilled-trades with an excess of labor to drive wages down.

Not sure why you get hung up on that, I'm perfectly capable of understanding why some poor people simply got dealt some shitty cards in life.
I'll refer to point 11.

>36030
> It's blatantly slave shit.
No, it's how reality works.
And yeah, being born in the west (in your case the US) is generally better than asia, africa etc. Having the attitude that there is "no such thing as a bad job" is basically a better outlook on life

t. lazy millennials

Wrong. I work 50-60hrs/week in a blue-collar trade. Mike Rowe is a neoliberal shill.

>Having the attitude that there is "no such thing as a bad job" is basically a better outlook on life
It's either meaningless drivel, nu-speak propaganda or an actually harmful attitude. Possibly all three.

If you think all jobs are equally good, why try to better yourself? If you think some jobs are better than others, but you don't want to use the word bad to describe the bad ones, then you're just playing word games, less food and worse mean the same thing.

Very good post
What's your trade? HVAC service tech here

Ha, HVAC install. Hoping to get trained in service soon.

Nice shop OP

He has a point.

"There are no bad jobs" is printed there as a work ethic. It's aimed towards entitled people who feel certain jobs are beneath them. It's purpose is to guide people towards personal success. Only a moron would take something like that and think it means you have to accept mistreatment from your employee or something like that.

>following this pledge necessitates laying down like a doormat.
It really doesn't, this is your shitty attitude speaking.
> It makes much more sense to negotiate with your boss.
Negotiating in a professional, contructive manner is something else than whining and complaining. But I'll guarantee you'll have a better position in that negotiation if you're an employee who works his ass off and is a valuable in the asset in the company that they want to keep.
> Note that "good employee" nearly always refers to obedience, not value brought to the company etc.
What the fuck, this is so completely wrong.
>It's a pledge, he doesn't say "this is a tactic that might be useful in certain situations"
You obviously can't read between lines

>its a snownigger tries desperately to justify borderline slavery while living off of government handouts episode

You can't just start over pretending to be someone else lmao.

>It really doesn't, this is your shitty attitude speaking.
yes it does, it limits your options and your bargaining power in your employees favour for no apparent reason.

>Negotiating in a professional, contructive manner is something else than whining and complaining.
whether a statement is constructive/whining is all in how it's portrayed, and obviously the bosses will try to paint everything as complaining. Realistically how many people are going to be whining at their boss? Complaining is something people usually do with friends to let off steam, the idea that asking the boss for anything is complaining is american corporate culture. A job is not a handout, it's an agreement between equals, and if you think your boss would hesitate before "complaining" to you you're deluded.

>What the fuck, this is so completely wrong.
I don't know how familiar you are with Anglo-Saxon media but that is pretty much the definition of a "good employee." They never call the proud and capable person who actually makes them money a good employee, just a necessary evil.

>You obviously can't read between lines
What kind of pledge is it where you have to "read between the lines" to gain anything slightly worthwhile from it. A pledge isn't something that should be open to interpretation. He's talking about values and principles here.

His luxury depends on others' slavery.

>he believes in nature over nurture
Sure mate, and I'm sure they if they were just smart enough, even the most isolated Kalahari Bushman could ace one of your precious IQ tests.

Tradecuck here, I can promise any of you if that guy stepped foot on our job site he would be hit over the head with a crowbar. I can also tell you this, not a single guy I work with that has kids wants them to grow up and work a trade, they all want their sons to go off to college.

>if two posts have the same flag, it's the same person hurr durr
Now this is amerimutt tier thinking.

I believe both have an effect, but if you're genetically stupid you can't bootstrap your IQ up by a standard deviation.

>even the most isolated Kalahari Bushman could ace one of your precious IQ tests
assuming they're not different from every other population on earth their IQ will be distributed with some better than others. That difference is largely but not entirely genetic. I don't care if you want to call IQ test scores intelligence, if you have a lot of whatever IQ measures you are much more likely to do well in employment, earn more, etc.

>8 HOURS WORK
>8 HOURS RECREATION

Remember to support your unions lads, because if you don't the suits are going to fuck you every chance they get.

Nice. Do you do any fabrication, or do you just bang bought duct? If you're a young and talented tinner, there's a lot of potential money in that.

>whether a statement is constructive/whining is all in how it's portrayed
Not really, there are definitely negotiation tactics out there that you can even get professional help with. You can bring work related arguments (your results or objective value you bring to the company) to the table that have nothing to do with personal stuff and use that to negotiate pay for example. That is not whining at all.
> A pledge isn't something that should be open to interpretation.
This is a bit autistic. You're treating it as if it's the ten commandments. You refuse to let some common sense into the frame.

You know what you did, and so do the rest of us.

Almost all duct installed by my company is fabricated in-house, with the exception of snappy-pipe used in residential. Taught myself how to use the plasma table since our shop foreman is a grumpy fuck. Most (non-union) installers in my area cap-out around $28/hr (which isn't bad, but the median house price in my city is $350K), while a competent service tech with NATE certs can get into the high $30s. I enjoy install, but I want to eventually transition into service.

Our unions are cucked by gov and big money.
We only survive on soviet legacy ie still too many people from soviet times alive and they would revolt if business try to raise work hours or cut benefits.
But they will definetaly raise/cut it in future

As a tax payer I'm one of the people keeping the welfare state going.

>LOOK MA I'M TROLLING LE EPIC STYLE ON THE 4CHEN FTW!
Fuck off underage reddit piece of shit.

HVAC is a racket get out as soon as you can. The owners make all the money. You don't want to be 40 years old still climbing into attics in the summer busting your back.

You can always tell the people who lived before they saturated the labour market so they could pay cunts less

>gap exactly long enough to doublepost

I died for you.

Surprisingly enough I know that feel, successive Coalition governments have slowly subverted and delegitimised our unions to the point of uselessness and now the results are being felt as real wages drop and loopholes around workers rights are created and exploited.
You should send a few of those ex soviet blokes over here, maybe having to deal with some actual communists might convince the government that workers rights are worth protecting again.

reginald dies for your sins

>Taught myself how to use the plasma table since our shop foreman is a grumpy fuck.
Sounds like somewhere I used to work. Any chance you're in CO?
Service work is fine, but I hate being in an on-call rotation.

They’re pretty good apart from 7

>Any chance you're in CO?
Ha, close, a bit further north. Been thinking about moving to CO, but housing (at least in the Denver metro-where all the jobs seem to be) is expensive. Being on-call seems like a major downside to service work, but worth it if you are making good money.

>You can bring work related arguments (your results or objective value you bring to the company) to the table that have nothing to do with personal stuff and use that to negotiate pay for example. That is not whining at all.
It will always be portrayed as whining, whereas management demanding more from workers would not be, and if workers said management was "whining" people would not understand, and would probably get butthurt. Whenever there are negotiations between unions etc. and management it is always spun as workers being entitled, whining, whatever.

>This is a bit autistic.
The whole idea of a pledge is a bit autistic but in general I think you do not understand how seriously Americans take this shit.

Yeah, I'm moving back to the Denver area from New England. I'm not going to enjoy playing ~40% more for housing, but the higher wages there should help.
If you get into an on-call rotation, make sure that all after-hours calls, whether or not you have your 40 hours of regular time for that week in yet, are paid as overtime.
