That you will keep the same job until retirement?
This is not a troll thread.
Let's say you're a black man who's between 25-35 right now. Or even 40.
3How likely is it that you will keep this "job" until retirement? I can tell, a lot of you do think you'll still be working at this same place until retirement, but you might not even be there in 3 years. And unless you know how to create your own job, you'll be applying a bunch of places hoping you get a call back from some cac named Craig or Megan.
How many black men have been unexpectedly laid off, i mean hardworking brehs who didn't deserve it. Is it that brehs nowadays think it can't happen to them?....Yeah well, those other brehs probably thought the same thing until it did. Then they had to apply everywhere hoping they find a new one, because bills gotta be paid. What if it takes 3 months? 6? There's less stability when white bosses and managers are in control of YOUR paycheck.
As a black man, you don't want to be in a position where you're too dependent on Mr. Charlie. U also don't want to be in a position where you're too dependent on a bytch. Even if you don't work for yourself now, you need to at least know how, JUST IN CASE. Plus there is a GREAT feeling of knowing that some white guy in a suit cannot fire you or lay you off.
Lay offs happen, businesses close, etc.
Even if by chance you do keep the same "good job" until retirement, look around. The few black men who do actually stay at the same job until retirement get promoted the least. They are underpaid compared to their nonblack counterparts. I used to work in Corporate, I know. The bosses and upper management are white men, with 1 or 2 "minorities" sprinkled in. How far up the ranks do you really think you're going to get, even if you manage to stay there until retirement?That 40 years you put in at their business, you can spend working for yourself, or with other black men.
There's a lot of noise on social media about "blackboyjoy" that's all well and good but what about doing for self. Employing ourselves, or at least learning how. You don't have to quit your job to at least learn how. How many brehs on here know how to create their own job if they had to tomorrow?There are a lot of different ways to employ yourself. I think a lot of brehs hear "self employed" and automatically think of a store or selling drugs or some shyt. This is the technological era.
We're to a point where instead of complaining about the "jobs" the white man gives us (or won't give us), the raises the white man won't give us, etc we need to realize that we can create our own jobs. This place has turned into a "cac this, cac that" wasteland and that sounds good but you'd better learn to feed yourself without White Daddy especially while you're still young.
If you're more interested in the rapper Future than your actual future, this isn't for you, you're too far gone. You'll realize it 30 years from now.
