  1. Why "mostly men"? Women have the same pressures.

  2. Studs Terkel's book "Working: People Talk About What They Do All Day and How They Feel About What They Do" demonstrates that regardless of time period, people have been feeling the way you do since work began. There truly is nothing new under the sun.

  3. Blame on microplastics and forever chemicals.

  4. No QA too.

  5. Fiduciary responsibility is one of those pleasant lies business people tell themselves. There are plenty of books and online resources that address the myth and what the law really says.

  6. "Worker organization" like when the AMA controls the number of doctors that get licensed. Very beneficial there if one likes shortages.

  7. There's a reason there was a movie called, "Take this job and shove it".

  8.  @JohnGardnerAlhadis  Funny thing is, we all expect THIS time to be different.

  9. Oddly as one gets older in those professions, they move higher in the hierarchy towards less labor like manager, etc.

  10. That's why "A Business Tale: A Story of Ethics, Choices, Success and a Very Large Rabbit " was an interesting read both in personal and business ethics.

  11.  @maximemeis2867  Hence growth of monopolies. Competition is "inferior" businesses.

  12. I had a guy come up to me in a truck with a sob story about he couldn't afford gas and would I buy his ring. And I'm thinking, you shouldn't be driving around so much if you're hard up on gas.

  13.  @kevinc8955  Right. There are affordable homes, just NOT in the places most want to live. Also most buy more house than they need and the law endorses that by enforcing a minimum size hence less incentive for tiny homes.

  14. I think that's part of the incentive to move up especially in professions that are physically demanding. e.g. construction.

  15. Bitcoin certainly didn't, so why should the next fad?

  16.  @norske_ow3440  With today's technology being out in the middle of nowhere is more viable than it use to be. Although with climate change the housing market will be indirectly affected with clean water being scarcer.

  17. Like the video said, becoming finance bros and playing stock market games with one's careers. Ultimately life is one big gamble and nor everyone wins.

  18. Manual labor enriches the oligopolies like Amazon, and others.

  19. Well except outsourcing and globalization hasn't caused the downfall of civilization...yet.

  20.  @howtoappearincompletely9739  Way they interpret it, yes it is. I'd state that corporate person-hood will cause as much damage.

  21. Nation of RVs.

  22. Books have been written about this. If I had a $1 for every time I heard "shareholder value" I would be very rich. Right now it's propagated by those that gain the most from it's believers.

  23. Booming home improvement industry.

  24. I suspect the answer to the question involves high-pressure tools.

  25.  @andrewreillymusic2773  Lack of initiative. 🙂

  26. Thousand new RENTAL property owned by corporations. Yeah, as if I haven't noticed the anti-rental sentiment in the comments.

  27. Growth of SOHOs.

  28.  @kangaroomax8198  Entitled people believe it's wage theft.

  29.  @sentinel151  Cycle is a cycle, regardless of profession. Trades have the same human forces governing them.

  30. Well understandable, after all when looking out for self, and the current choices are failing, people are going to do that.

  31. Starlink should make remote work easier.

  32. That was the hope of tariffs. Force things to be made here.

  33. Nice about experiencing both is that "walk in their shoes" experience that'll inform one's decisions in the other job.

  34. They're roughly equal. The important thing is effective search requires money, and lots of it, hence Bing with the backing of a company that can hide the costs in other products (OS, apps, etc) and services (SaS, cloud, etc).

  35. I suspect industries with a lot of regulation will have more of that admin work.

  36.  @reheyesd8666  That last one is a sad truth, and one doesn't even have to try. Just out of the blue, manager can say, "come into my office".
