@BGgungame It's easy to understand, even for a ward of the state like me.
People either live with their parents or with a bunch of other people to share fixed costs, like rent and mostly utility bills.
When they have enough aside (a few months of full autonomy), then they transition to a career job.
When they are settled in their career job, they can move on to be fully independent.
As a ward of the state, it was a bit different. Though, I ended up sharing housing with a friend while I was working a low paying job, then moved out when independent.
I never understood how people can't grasp that they can't go straight to their own apartment and need to do it in steps. To me, it appear stupid to think that one would be able to afford a full rent from the get go, unless he has rich parents or some kind of privilege.
It's like thinking that you just need to think about repairing a car to be able to fix it. Sadly, too many people think like that. I can't count how many people told me "I could do your job" without even understanding what it is. The worse being those believing that anybody can do anything given enough time 🤣
People want to work minimal job wage, because they are more numerous than expert jobs. They are there, readily available with high turnover. Some are even stepping stones to have a foot in the targeted company. They are low skill and accessible too, which means you don't have to develop specialized skills that takes years to master. So, those are very enticing. Especially to get started in life.
