Ticky tack clicky clack

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

it takes more than a few years for something like that to pick up. there haven't been a massive influx of new jobs, particularly with a lot of places closing shop and jobs being consolidated. new markets and opportunities have to come up and society isn't exactly shrinking. we have more people than jobs available, but the answer is always 'get a job', and that's just not feasible (especially in certain areas where there are finite amount of jobs and more people and you're just waiting for someone to cycle out and die.)

I live in a small town and a lot of jobs that were considered Shitty Jobs For Teens are being done by people 50+ because they can't afford not to work. Fast food places around here each have at least 2 people who are 40+ and the grocery and retail stores have tons of older people working. The only reason positions open up are because younger employees have to leave to go to school or can't work as many hours.

Most of the "good" jobs around here are held by older people who can't or won't quit and all that's left are those smalltime jobs. Even then, for every job that opens up there are 5 other people who want it.
