Donald Trump, I took a bullet for this Country i deserve your vote
r/millenials

Millenials - the generation growing up near 2000 and grown up no later than 2020. If you can't remember bittorrent, wikileaks, George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, or Barack Obama, you're not a millenial. You don't have to remember myspace. Yes, a millenial is a millennial and neither are recognized as a noun, only as an adjective, so both are not even a word.

My [younger gen] coworker just described what he calls “mental podcasting” and says he does it all day at work.

Spoiler: it’s just day dreaming, that’s it. He says he has long fantasy conversations with friends, family and famous dead people While at work all day.

Anyone else notice this bizarre trend of people needing to re-contextualize everything to fit into their lives?

Do people have so little control in their lives we need to make up new words to describe something that already exists as a form of comfort?

Either that or I’m getting trolled in an epic way

All of my friends parents are starting to die.

I’m an older millennial, 41 this year. The mom of my childhood best friend passed September 2023. The dad of a childhood friend just passed away two weeks ago. The mom of one of my best friends (during my 20s) just passed away yesterday.

My parents are mid 70s, and my mom isn’t in the best of health. And it’s just surreal to see everyone’s parents passing. We all went through life without a care, the end seemed so far. But now it’s here, and it’s hard to accept.

Thanks for reading.

Donald Trump Will Reject The Election Results If He Loses; The Violence Isn't Over
  1. I predicted months ago that as the election drew closer, acts of political violence would ramp up. I have unfortunately been proven right, and I suspect we will see more.

  2. When Trump WASN'T under criminal indictment, he was more than happy to see a violent mob attack the Capitol. Now he is under indictment. He will do ANYTHING to stay out of jail. And his followers are as fanatical as ever.

If he loses, January 6 will be a footnote in history compared to the violence to come.

Our generation is so cooked when it comes to professional jobs

No one I know who's my age is able to get a job right now. Five of my friends are in the same industry as me (I.T.) and are struggling to get employed anywhere. I have a 4-year college degree in Information Technology that I completed early and a 4-year technical certification in Information Technology I got when I was in high school alongside my diploma. That's a total of 8 YEARS of education. That, combined with 2 years of in-industry work and 6-years of out-of-industry work that has many transferrable skill sets. So 8 YEARS of applicable work experience. I have applied to roughly 500 jobs over the last 6 months (I gave up counting on an Excel sheet at 300).

I have heard back from maybe 25 of those 500 jobs, only one gave me an interview. I ACED that interview and they sent me an offer, which was then rescinded when I asked if I could forgo the medical benefits package in exchange for a slightly higher starting salary so I could make enough to afford rent since I would have to move for the job. All of which was disclosed to them in the interview.

I'm so sick of hearing companies say Gen Z is lazy and doesn't want to work. I have worked my ass off in order to achieve 16 years of combined work and educational experience in only 8 years and no one is hiring me for an entry-level job.

I'm about ready to give up and live off-grid in the woods.

Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

A few quick edits because I keep seeing some of the same things getting repeated:
I do not go around saying I have 16 years of experience to employers, nor do I think that I have anywhere near that level of experience in this industry. I purely used it as an exaggerated point in this thread (that point being that if you took everything I've done to get to this point and stacked it as individual days, it would be 16 years). I am well aware that employers, at best, will only see it as a degree and 2 years of experience with some additional skillsets brought in from outside sources.

Additionally, I have had 3 people from inside my industry, 2 people from outside my industry who hire people at their jobs, and a group from my college's student administration team that specializes in writing resumes all review my resume. I constantly improve my resume per their recommendations. While it could be, I don't think it has to do with my resume. And if it is my resume then that means I cant trust older generations to help get me to where I need to go.
