2024 LC Thread #1 - Elder Fraud Advice

Are you kidding me right now? Just from a fan engagement standpoint alone, the custom helmets objectively rule. They can’t put a Godzilla on a helmet anymore?

Are you out or a closeted puck hater?

Stuff like this puts me on mega tilt

We pay 70k, but you get the skills to become a millionaire!

Is it more that the training/skills they claiming you will come away with are complete bullshit themselves or just that it should be paying way higher?

He’s asking someone to work basically 100 hours a week, or minimum wage, and be good at it, because they will learn, or something. Investment banks also do this. They pay 250k. 70k in San Francisco is just awful. It’s abusive and anyone smart enough to do it has way better options. Just stock boomer nobody wants to work horseshit.

Yeah that makes are those even considered valuable/teachable skills? To me it reads like some scammer on tik tok

Like at some level high workload quasi- apprenticeship type entry level stuff has been standard forever whether its medicine, judges clerks, trades, knights squire, etc but there an expectation that you actually learning valuable enough skills to compensate for the low salary.

It’s basically Devil Wears Prada minus the glamour. Just fucking enough with rich assholes abusing young people.

Damn this absolutely rules

“late nineteen hundreds” is something i need to start using

It’s a good question though - sources that are 30 years old should always be double checked

you wanna feel old? in 2023 we’re almost as close to the year 2000 as we were to the end of the vietnam war when it was 2000.

I’m out, one group of friends have similar thoughts as me and another group is a bunch of ex players who love hockey.

Jesus Christ what happened to jimmy carter

if i get to 99 you have my express permission to put me down

I’m troubled by what kind of sexy beast you apparently had in your mind as the average 99 year old.

He’s lasted way longer than the average person on hospice. Way way longer. I can’t imagine he has much longer. I’m amazed he was able to be taken to the funeral and also amazed that he was apparently with it enough to express that he wanted to go to the funeral.

Legitimately everyone I know who has gone on hospice (and unfortunately that number keeps going up) has been dead within a week.
