Let's correct the "Nobody wants to work" narrative

nobody wants to work hard manual labor swing shift jobs for 12/hr in 100 degree heat with no benefits other than an one time $1000 bonus.

100 degree heat? Where?
No one is working in 100 heat today. Not in the Carolinas. ??

Why not?
Because if you do that for a year or two, showing up on time not high or drunk, you can be promoted out of the 100 degree heat and swing shifts, make more money and take on more responsibility.
W T F is the problem with you liberals? You want your first job to be CEO?
Pathetic.

"moving up the ladder" doesn't happen anymore

at least not at the same company.
That's why there are so many job hoppers.
The days of working your way up the ladder for 30 years at Globocorp are long gone. Now you have to jump jobs if you want to climb the ladder.
Companies can't find entry level workers as it is. Why would they promote you to middle management, a job that they have 5000 applicants for, from a job nobody wants to take?

Really?
Seeing as how I have more than 1,000 employees, many of whom have indeed climbed the ladder within the same company, I'd say you are full of chit.
Even my nephew, a manager at Bojangles was promoted from floor worker to manager, as a college freshman. It ain't hard - just come to work and don't be a fnck up.
..."can't be promoted within the same company" - you are highly out of touch.
Your bosses have made you believe you can't be promoted unless you leave, in an effort to get you to leave. Not hard to figure this one out.

This is as true as your Mechanical Engineering PhD.
You can be anyone you want on the Internet, I guess.

but aren't you a school teacher? Not quite sure you have the credentials to make such definitive, widespread (muthafuckin panic) claims like that.
I've been promoted a few times, and I've been working < decade. I've job hopped b/c I was burnt out and was trying to switch industries. The median number of jobs for my buddies (engineering, private sector), is probably 1.3? So my observations is that you're simply repeating a narrative that you don't necessarily have the experience to discuss.
Am I saying that the norm is to stay at one firm from college to retirement? No. But it's also not the case that it's impossible to move up in the private sector if you have merit to back it up - all while staying at the same company.
Depending on the industry...it's there. I've met plenty of folks who've been at places for 5-10 years and they're close to our age. I know 2 guys who've job hopped, and they're the two dumbest people I know haha.
Stop jumping to extremes bro. We're all just ants, man, someone else is shaking the jar.
I could've responded with a follow up troll...like "LOL, private sector thoughts from a bus driver...mk", but that doesn't help the situation.

Uhhhh yes it does. In the last 8 years I have been promoted 5 different times internally at 2 different companies.
Companies love promoting internally. They know exactly what they are going to get, training for the new job is easier, and you can generally pay internal promotions less than hiring externally.
I’m not sure you know what you’re talking about.
