Work ethic in todays society.
What is with the laziness of people, especially in this volatile economy? I work for a very good oilfield service and supply company, one of the larger ones. We cannot keep people because they don't want to work past 5:30, or be on call. We have had 6 people quit within 2 weeks because of those 2 very reasons. In fact the state road authority here does not work at night either, so all the road construction is done during the day and they are you guessed it "UNION." When I worked in Texas as a service tech for an O&G Service company I was on call 7 days a week and averaged 80 hours a week. I knew about it before I started, and I stuck with it. Money was good too. People complain about jobs, but then they don't want to work for the dollar. It's no wonder why all of the Oil and Gas industry has to get people to move here from Texas, and Louisianna, etc. No one here has any fucking work ethic. Rant off...

Kids are stuck on facebook these days. That combined with a lack of ass whippings and not being made to do chores and such all contribute in my opinion.Vortex rear stand $75

Aren't you in a pretty big union state? They aren't used to earning a living.Comment

I dont think so, maybe I commented on another thread about it.Originally posted by aCid View PostDidn't you start a thread a month or two ago about the Yankee's being lazy as fuck?Comment

Yes, but you would think that this industry which is not union and adding thousands of jobs a month to an economy that was above the average in unemployment would change that. Guess not.Originally posted by Vertnut View PostComment

It's that Yankee mentality. In the '70's, those fuckers were SWARMING down here looking for work. Summer of '80 sent a lot of them back. Seems that they didn't take too well to our 114 degree's. LOLOriginally posted by Trip McNeely View PostComment

What bothers me is the false sense of entitlement that most people seem to think that they have....like the company owes them something for just doing their damned job. My employees also drive me crazy with the constant worrying about what their peers are doing and/or constant monitoring to see if someone else is getting something they aren't....people can't seem to mind their own business.70' Chevelle RagTop

That comes right back to the thread about everybody being "equal"...bullshit. We're not all equal...Originally posted by Rreemo View PostComment

I love how Liberals are all about their equality, but then they claim how different and independent they are.
Whichever that's convenient for the moment I guess...

I doubt much has changed. It's just the older generation is always bitching about the younger generation.Comment
