I strived to work less and less during my years. Finally got a comfy 39 hours job where I do fuckall ez pz programming, with company benefits and the highest pay I've ever seen.
Fuck those boomers. Get a lazy job and do minimum work, anons. Don't overwork yourselves. Jump ships from time to time when necessary, is the easiest way to increase your pay.

Guess being conservative to you means being jewish and anti-family.

I was much more productive when I was younger and also played more video games.
I got lazy because I realized that nobody really gives a fuck, middle manager boomers of my office are just counting days to their retirement so they don't really give too many fucks either, and the highest boardroom boomers are so out of touch they don't have any idea about how much more work we could do but don't. Last time I even saw one of the big bosses was almost three years ago when one of them came to check our office archives just for his fun to see if there are old photos of him and his buddies.

hmm no

Was the "basement dwelling 30 year old" a thing in the past? Like in 1910 or something.

As for OP's question, I don't think it makes you lazy. If anything some video games make people work harder. Sure it's all virtual, but just the fact effort is being exerted means that it isn't laziness at all.
I believe most of the negative imagery of video games comes from the fact boomers didn't really grow up with them so it's easy blame, also the association with losers doesn't help.
There are several other mediums that fall in same boat for losers. I've known some women in their late 20s that just chug through sloppy romance novels or fanfics, but because reading has a better image than video games (and the fact they are women so less is expected) they don't have the same level of scorn as guys that play vidya.

The reason people became "lazy" is because working doesn't pay off anymore. Our grandfathers were able to save up enough money to buy property within 5 years of working physical labour without living like beggars. Now, unless you are in the top 10%, you will never earn enough money to own anything. Why would men be motivated to slave away for crumbs, just to pay rent and live paycheck to paycheck?

Why are boomers so cartoonishly evil?

>>936629964
>When a child plays make believe with his friends, this is a playful stage he grows out of.

If getting a job and giving up video games is price for purging the brownoids and trannies and getting to say nigger and retard again without getting fired, then so be it. Some things are worth the sacrifice.

Strange that they have absolutely nothing to say about Social Media, and even bend over backwards to defend the likes of TikTok.
How long ago was TikTok supposed to be banned ago now? No, they keep getting extension after extension after extension. Why? Because the boomers love that shit like crack cocaine and can't imagine living without it.

In Finland there is an ancient term "peräkammarinpoika" (The Boy of the Back Bedchamber) that referred to unmarried men who lived in small room of family farm all their lives, never got married and never tried to succeed on their own. It is still sometimes used in media and public discussion about unemployed men in Finland.

So they can live. I'm honestly impressed by how many people manage to coast off of others like their parents or the government.
I tried to get SSI for a time and always got rejected. The second I stop wageslaving is when I become I homeless. Maybe I just rolled bad that I didn't have parents or whoever that have the ability to take of me financially.

The funny thing about all of this how that won't happen at all.

I've been self employed for 15 years. Currently I "work" 40 hours a week. But my office is my gaming computer, so if WoW is being played for 35 of those hours and no boss means making 20k a year I get all the benefits. No one comes in and checks. There is no oversight committee. All i deal with is an interview every 6 months asking if I'm still working 40 hours a week.

It's a joke. The only people effected by this are going to be dumb and innocent people.

When did the alt-right become even more annoying than trannies and garden variety leftists? I don't see them spamming the board like this.

At a certain pay level the work isn't worth it if you're not on welfare. If they make you use your personal car you're not making money. If the work is in any way hazardous to your health, you're not making any money when you factor in the eventual medical help.

I work for a tech company and when remote work became the standard, I'm the only person I know of who moved to a small town in order to cut costs. But there were plenty of people I work with who just up and moved to OTHER big cities where they pay just as much or more for housing than they did before.

The people who work for industries that can reasonably do their work remotely are also the least likely to want to live in small towns or places that otherwise have excess housing.

>>936630368
Every field has entry level jobs. If you don't have experience or education, you're going to be limited to jobs that are proportional to your lack of value as an employee.

I work in a highly regulated industry, so we can't just hire a random inexperienced cuck from the street that has no track record of being able to perform. It's too risky and ends up being a net negative for productivity.

The real problem with boomers is they fail to realize they grew up and had their early adult years during a golden age, probably the best golden age in all of history.
And it's hard for everyone to place themselves in another's shoes, so they just think back to when they were your age and just don't see the issue you're having.
The world will heal once they all die off.
