it’s is true that peduto is a pos. however i think the part about young folks not wanting to work is boomer mentality. no one wants to work but since we have to we want to be paid a livable wage and be treated with dignity and when we sense anything less than that we give our employers anything less than our best. it’s quite simple really. we don’t tolerate abuse like the older generations did.
it’s shocking that you went from correctly blaming government and political officials who are actually in charge of legislation, to the young people in this city not wanting to work. if we use your logic, people like peduto are hurting small business in this city which in turn hurts employees = employees not wanting to tolerate shitty conditions.
people stop listening to you when you throw out the old “young people don’t want to work” fyi

also it sounds like you’ll likely hire the person who’s easier to manipulate, will work for less money, and doesn’t have the proper language to tell you to fuck off.

How do you decide what "better" looks like to your employees, or whoever you mean by "those around [you]"? This is a serious question. Do you assume that what you think is better is, objectively, better, and then institute changes based solely on your own view of things? Or do you ask people what they need and have a conversation about it, with the goal of reaching an agreement about what changes would strike a better balance between what you need and what they need?

right it’s like they’re saying “i had it shitty and i’m giving you better, so why are you complaining”
someone needs to tell this person that their “better” is someone else’s “way fucking worse”
