RussianTroll, very interesting topic. I was thinking of this very topic the other day!
I feel there has been a loss of respect in today’s workforce, that was not the case in the 70s. People also respected their elders more and if they were smart, learned from them.
Respect and integrity are also learned at home. My father, God Bless him, taught me if you’re going to do something, do it right. He would also wake me at 5:00 (even though I didn’t have to be to work til 9:00 lol), with a speech “What are you going to sleep all day, you’re going to have to work everyday for the rest of your life you'd better get used to it”. He’d leave breakfast on the table before he left for work. I still wake up everyday at 5:00, I work nights some days and it doesn’t matter, I’m up at 5:00. I appreciate his advice and Thank God he didn’t candycoat reality. I might not have survived without it.
Of course the internet wasn’t around, and he wouldn’t let me watch junk on television.
I miss the traditional family, and values of those days.
I’ve met some really impressive gen z workers, and Ive also met some truly lazy, spoiled, entitled whiners. I feel for them because life is hard enough as it is, I can’t imagine having unrealistic expectations in today’s world!
Anyways, what is housing like there? Rents, buying a house average costs?
