Double click on it and like this episode. Very good discussion on more work without a promotion

Well, i guess it is just unlucky for those who want to start a new life in a different country then, given the lack of mobility in the job market. Why should I be excluded from the selection if i am just as qualified as the native citizen of a country, who probably half arsed in getting the job done.

Wow 🤩 🎉

🎉thank you for your insights . Could you please speak more on your Gen-z insights in a future show . I appreciate your work

I’m not into sports so I’m insecure? Lmao

I dont think that if I'm not interested in sports means I'm insecure. It means I'd rather talk about things I'm interested in. So I would just be quiet and listen.

Unless you’re living in a very small town, $50k is living paycheck to paycheck.

I just retired from a Diagnostic Imaging Company . The last supervisor that unfortunately got promoted was a woman who micro micro micro managed the department. The people higher up unfortunately missed the bad management she was capable of. She literally cleaned out a good Company that now has a huge staffing problem. All management needs to be monitored to make sure they are doing a good job. Bad management can destroy a company in a short amount of time.

Shower and comb your hair before the next episode

40% more work with 5% raise + title change is NOT a promotion

Going for the brother Ken look? That hoodie makes Ken look like a Catholic monk.

I make 50k in 6 months at mine. but I capture and relocate killer bees

I wonder what the median salaries are?

where i live you can work hard to increase your wages or you can jump ship to somewhere that has infinite hours up for grabs. its much easier to work 30% more hours than it is to get a 30% wage increase out of your boss.

Employers don’t seem to care about turnover anymore. Although they’re obviously stressed by the new hiring process and training. They do not address issues that are brought to them, especially if it involves another employee, manager, or trainer who’s been there for a while. It’s almost like they’re afraid to do so. Weird.

I am 22 years old and make $52,000 a year at one job with no certifications some college no degree and I don’t work for a union. and i make $30,000 a year at my other job. I am married and have one son he is a year old. My husband has a GED and makes $70,000 a year working for a union and no nepotism on both sides. Just pure hard work. God is good ❤

what job is paying more than 30k a year for anyone 25-35

Basically, get gifted a privileged opportunity from your white dad like Ken Coleman did to work at Ramsay then grift and lie to people to make money.

I’m a Gen Xer born in the late 70s. My parents and grandparents did teach me about saving. I started at 22 in my first job out of college and started putting in 10% of my income into my first 401k. 22 years later I’m in a great job for the last 10 years with a 401 and a pension. I put in around 15%. I also have some annuities and an IRA on top of a good 401 amount. I pretend SS doesn’t exist. Honestly I’m still scared of not having enough even though I feel like I will.

Get three wifes, drop them twelve kids, then wait 18 years and send them off to work. Now, we are millionaires

Ending of this interview is great!

I will say, great talk. Only mild critique, specifically about the difference between cops and firemen. The specific word “volunteer”. How many of our cops are “volunteer” cops? None; we have a very different word for that, vigilante. And it’s illegal. Yet we are extremely ok with not paying someone to basically drop everything and go risk their lives to put out fires. But the result of that is basic firemen are paid so little that they all take extra jobs to just survive. This is until they “make it” to an officer position where they can actually live on their salary. Cops, on the other hand, have strong unions (perhaps with some problems specific to unions) are paid relatively well out of the gates, and have good upward mobility. If we truly want to be grateful for firefighters, perhaps we should fund our fire departments to a level where we don't rely on volunteers to fill the labor gap and the junior firefighters dont have to also be EMTs (another sub livable wage despite heroic actions), medical techs, or nursing home attendants on the side.

i used to get jobs in software dev after 3-5 months. now its averaging 2 years.

I don’t ever think I watched a show with a commercial a minute. Is this prime time or something?

I can't blame them! Because of the current system that we have today #1 is INCOME TAX the primary source of Modern Day Slavery not just here in America but also throughout the World as well. Get rid of the INCOME TAX then let's see IF our Society can encourage the young men to work again. But me I never complained, I worked my way up, gotta learn trade skills not just only being a cashier or bartender or fastfood worker and get stuck there! Gotta learn trade skills all kinds of blue collar trades. I went through hell before I can even started making 6 figure income. There's no shortcut y'all!

So good Ken! Preach!! ❤

I feel this often…I’m 38 I don’t really feel like I can accomplish much. I continue to do shitty jobs because it feels good to be productive, but I really hate being paid just for my time. It’s easy to feel talentless and yeah, sometimes it does feel like a garbage life

Yes! Your comment of training the men/women leaving the military is true. AND, I will add, dependents separating due to death / divorce need some sort of training, too.

Brutal. A life without purpose.

What an idiot. 😂 society 💩 on men for that last 50 years. Took them out of the home gave every other special interest group privileges and priority., and constantly blamed men and pointed the finger at men for everything every problem. 😂😂😂 and you wonder why men are fed up and done with society!? Why should they care for a society that doesn’t give a flying F**k about any of them.? 😮😮😮😮😂 🤡

Im off Sat, sun and monday. I only work 4 days a week and live with little debt just a mortgage. Thats the lifestyle we should be pushing not high income and over working.

This is Cult of Leadership talk…shocking that it’s tied into the hierarchy of the god mythology.

Hi Ken, Hope you guys enjoyed the bourbon and cigars Merry Christmas

Appreciate the detailed breakdown! Just a quick off-topic question: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). What's the best way to send them to Binance?

So the best way to get a job is to know someone already working there. Sounds like nepotism to me. *sigh* the way classism keeps rearing its ugly head disguised as some reasonable status quo

When I was laid off, I took myself to a restaurant to eat my sorrow away to cool down. Went home and be with my spouse. Took my time to assess the situation to see if there was something I could do differently. Then looked for resources that were available to me during that time and then find my ways back to the work place. I could do all this because my spouse was employed so I didn't have as much of pressure to find work right away. God bless those who go through this process.

According to this data, i make less than a latin person in Mississippi 🫠

For most tech environments, it takes a year to "come up to speed" on the bizarre tooling, legacy code, business contexts and people aspects of the job. At a startup, it is easy to provide value early. The bigger the company, the harder it is understand how everything works. Very few things are documented. If you're working alongside technologists that have been stuck at the company since the beginning, they'll resists any attempts to modernize or change anything and they won't teach you anything because you scare them. WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF TECH!

My dad was trained by the USAF for HVAC tech in 1971. They did train him for civilian life.

Stack your Sats and XRP

The best thing that ever happened to me was getting laid off. It forced me to become an entrepreneur and I’m a multimillionaire today and very happy.

Scott Galloway is a NYU professor and extremely successful entrepreneur and he thinks people enjoy their work much more and are more likely to stay if they have at least one friend at work.

100% correct about the interior hires. My daughter has had several different jobs at her big tech company. When they hired her 8 years ago out of college they told her we aren’t hiring you for this job but for future jobs within the company. She also got recruited there because she had a personal relationship with someone that recommended her. Lastly, companies like Google use AI in hiring because they get millions of applications every year.

My husband is an electrical engineer, a little after first year, aerospace.. started at 75k. So seeing that other places are starting at so much more it’s crazy. He’s now at 89k as he got promoted to a higher level. I’m a PA, with my masters degree of course, and my salary is 90k (SC :/). I have 10k incentive pay each year for two years so if I don’t leave within two years I’m making 100k a year (but that’s what I made in Florida as a new grad). Kind of sucks too how little compared to doctors when we do similar things in most areas (I did the exact same thing in primary and now in wound care). Although I don’t expect to be making as much as doctors I just wish my pay was around 120 or 150k. For the student loans we had to get and those very hard 2.5 years of grad school.

Its true but its a payless job which no one values😒

It doesn't help when you have people who apply for jobs they know they have no interest in, are in no way qualified to do and sometimes live in a distant country. Clogging up the system with CVs.

I learned that I am fake vacationing wrong. Can’t afford to go to a destination. So I make food that I would sample, look up virtual tours walk/bike in real life (stationery bike, or walking in place.

Shes right
