Great post man. Just going back through some on your blog. Yeah I think we all got jobs but this generation really doesn't see things the way we did. Those things that built values and pride in us whether we liked it or not, just aren't part of what this generation wants to do. Glad I gre up when I did! I might be a little older than you though. lol

Just out of curiosity what was your first job? I always think that's kind of a fun topic to look back at.
My grandpa used to joke with me that I had more jobs by the age of like 20 than he had in his entire 50 years or whatever it was of working
Delivering papers in the 70s lol
When I was growing up it was always adults driving and throwing papers out of their cars so I never had a chance to be a paper boy, however I can sort of relate as I played a lot of Paperboy on my Nintendo lol. I hate those dogs and the neighbors with rakes who would chase me.
lol
Yeah, I did the route on my bike. Had baskets and all. I bet if I could see myself now how I was then I would laugh.
Hey saved, you bring up a great point. I recently heard that the number one occupation most young kids these days want to do is Youtube.
I definately agree the world is changing and the world we grew up in is not the world we live in today so I think to some extent we have to accept and adapt to that.
I guess the bigger question that brings up is are today's kids who want to earn a living on Steemit or Youtube, are they lazy or are they dreamers? Or are they simply adapting to the changing times?
Personally I think it's maybe a mix of both.
I think a combination of both. Like kids when I was young, some wanted to be a rock star or something like that while other knew they had to work for it. Then others still just daydreamed about it.
