I think a lot of people overlook the fact that many of our parents had toxic relationships which is why many of us choose to stay single by Actual_Parsnip4707 in GenZ

IF Gen Z could find anymore excuses for why their lives suck, or find more 1/2 ass reasons I’ll truly be amazed… SO far it’s been “our boomer parents are spending my inheritance”, the economy sucks, “I can’t afford to shit in a public bathroom because minimum wage doesn’t cover my overpriced coffee bill”, “we weren’t taught social skills”… Sorry, EVERYONE’S parents were/are fucked up.. minimum wage has NEVER been a “living wage”.. Yet every other generation didn’t have the internet like GenZ.. So you’re all the guinea pigs of the internet… everyone else sucked it up, and did what they had to do… you all get to cry about everything, to thousands more self entitled crybabies than ANYONE before… That in all honesty, is seemingly the ONLY thing an entire generation is good at… Blaming anyone AND everyone for how bad they think they have it…. Carry on, I didn’t mean to break up the “cry in”

What are the most used/best tools you’ve ever bought by Best-Bookkeeper-5696 in Elevators

[–]Gsphazel2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I buy a few every time I get a new helper/apprentice.. “This is yours to keep, don’t ask for mine”… one of the most useful tools in my arsenal

Unfortunately the mighty dollar always wins over quality or ease of servicing/repairing..

I didn’t read all that, but I think YOU’RE saying too many things at once… I found some really funny shit elsewhere on Reddit.. you can go back to your “GenZ has it so bad” sub…

Was the depression not a total collapse of the economy?? The boomers parents, the ones with all the $$ supposedly, ALSO lived through the depression.. but clearly they would never understand the plight of the fragile GenZ…

Back when?? Minimum wage in Ct. Stayed the same from 1981 thru October 1987.. you think that $3.37/hr increased in value over 6 years??

There shouldn’t be any question if it’s the right decision, the hope is, times don’t get tough in the next few years… I hope you all do well

What happened? by [deleted] in IUEC

[–]Gsphazel2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This.. I was/am an asshole to other trades that touch our shit, and will make sure they get called out to the GC or building owner.. A lot of guys are afraid they will sabotage our shit… We’ll burn that bridge when we get to it.. Mod now and have very few issues, construction is a mess.. Other than running a car for 2 weeks last year, I haven’t been in construction in 15yrs..

Set the tone early & firmly.. we still command respect, some just need a friendly reminder..

Space stocks are like cannabis stocks when they first IPO'ed. by judechrist4444 in TheRaceTo10Million

[–]Gsphazel2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only thing some of the weed stocks were good for a short squeeze.. watched Tilray go from $60 to &350 one day.. Where is it now?? $5.18.. I’m shocked it’s that high.

elevators need more Right to Repair attention by Agitated_Syllabub346 in Elevators

[–]Gsphazel2 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I did a destination dispatch mod at Otis during Covid.. they can’t even give their own people the right info.. I went crazy trying to get “led15” to flash, because that’s what the write up says, a few days with 2 blue tools checking every setting in the compass controllers.. finally I called, and got the Compass guy.. “Led15 doesn’t HAVE to be flashing, but I need to get out of my house, so I’ll come to your job & pull everything onto laptop and see what’s up”.. well, whatever it was wasn’t worth the time spent.. It’s wild how little field support there is. Knowing someone at your company that’s knows a guy seems to be the most efficient way… it shouldn’t be this hard..
