According to Bloomberg 20% of 15-29 year olds are unemployed

No wonder there is so much avarice and hate online.

People under 30 contribute less to the world than even leeches do. Imagine your greatest accomplishment being “I have a degree” or “I’m going to finish school”?

I hope such mouth breathers have zero write access to any platforms on the internet. This would be an effective way to rid the internets of all its negativity.

As always, consult my sig to aware yourself of how petty and small minded small people are.

15? LOL cmon son
brb clocking in my 9 to 5, except it isn't when im at school from 7:30 to 2:30, and I also play sports because I lift and exercise, which puts me in a more alpha position than miscers that don't lift, so the best shot is an hour at said job to get experience.

But the bum ass cats in their 20s that just taking up space, not tryna better themselves? yeah they gotta go

Less and less incentives for young people to work, especially men.

-Ridiculous housing prices
-no more social cohesion/relgion
-bad future prospects in all areas, resource depletion, ecological disasters,...
-non functioning multicultural societies
-feminism ruining western women
-new technologies disrupting society in all kinds of negative ways
-too liberal, traditions that guided us in life being destroyed
-...

No **** a lot of them go full NEET.

social media literally ruined these young kids. its just not natural, to live your life through a screen. im so glad I dodged the internet age (when I was in high school people were JUST getting into ********). cant imagine the **** show now with instagram, tiktok all that ghey sht. young people are doomed.

Zuckerberg should be hanged.

Inb4 OK boomer.

I started working at 16 but I dunno

[VinnyPazRules]

That's funny because 100% of you is a *******

Measuring from age 15 is stupid af, start at 22

[cameintodissu]

I don’t work or go to school. And I’m 28. I’m a professional fighter who’s basically a bum living off his parents.

I’m very happy though and I’m not sure getting my old job back at a restaurant is contributing much to the world. I like to think me learning proficiency at mma and fighting is setting me up for some type of martial arts job in the future, But yeah I should probably start being more productive with my free time

[dannyg1217]

What about 30 to 39 yo unemployed manlets. We know op fits in that category.

Brb posts about unemployment while being unemployed.

[newbuck]

I mean this is what happens when entry level jobs want you to have a four year degree and 2+ years of experience

I had a job at 14, maybe even 13

But need context for this analysis: what qualifies (part time vs full time), how it scales by year, etc

Yeah I started caddying when I was 13 the summer after 8th grade.

But I wouldn't consider a kid without a summer job to be included in an unemployment statistic, it should start at 18 at a minimum as high school graduates enter the workforce around that age, or 21 or 22 as college grads would be included as well.

Definitely, or at least need some context because Bloomberg must have some rationale or historical stats for the age group that indicate a bad trend regardless

Think my very first job was delivering newspapers and then McDs at 14 or 15

[Jasonw1178]

Is this all or just those who want to work?

For one thing, the under 18 crowd doesn't work now. Gen Z should be called the Peter Pan Generation because they are all about being kids forever.

[Jaroctor]

It’s not like it’s getting easier to find iobs when even ****ing dishwashing requires experience

[LegDayLol]

Get ready for communism in a few decades Ameribrahs

[soaponarope1]

How about the stats on 19-29 year old not classified as full time college students?

A ton of 15-22 year old high school and college students are unemployed so the stats in the op are meaningless.

[AtomicVeggie]

Lmao strong inclusion of 15 year olds when the vast majority of places require you to be 16 to work there, and most places require you to be 18.

[2RDEYE]

actually much harder to get a job now. i checked and temp agencies for warehouse or general labour jobs require 2 professional references for ****ing positions that could last 1-3 days. no wonder so many people in this ****hole city are homeless. how are u gonna get professional references as a homeless person if u can't get a job. "uhh can i use the kid i boot liquor for as a reference." it wasn't like that several years ago, none of the reference crap.

I’m 36. AIM was huge in high school. I think that was the official start of all of this
