Now Playing: Old Fart Bitching
Topic: The Young Generation
I saw a boy at Costco the other night with a T shirt: "Hard work pays off later, laziness pays off now". In my grumpier moments I would say that is the slogan of most kids. There were two young couples renting the house next door for 2 1/2 years and they had two dogs. They seemed to think of dogs as a fashion accessory. In two years they very rarely would clean up after them. They would sit on the back wood deck-surrounded by dog shit-and smoke.
There's three guys there now; looks like one of their Mom's bought the house. It took them an entire weekend to move in, very little stuff, they'd just make a load with one or two things at a time. I can't complain that they have gardeners come in to clean up the yard, god knows, this area needs all the cleanup it can get.
Tom Leykis was advising young guys to not lift boxes for woman at the office. From the guys that called in you would think offices are just full of boxes needing to be moved: What a whiny group! I disagree with Tom on this one, he's creating a whole generation of office wimps.
It is just a different work philosophy, I'm doing manual labor at 52, they're avoiding it in their twenties. I guess if you can get your mother to pay for it.
