you should know the name at least, you don't have to recognize his face, but the name of the richest person in the world shouldn't be foreign to you at that age. it's just a reflection of what info these kids are consuming. no kid who reads the news or even watches the news wouldn't know the name bezos. you might want to say people don't read the news anymore, but if the result is kids can't even recognize names that are in the news then that's not a good path we're headed down. and this isn't about lauding him and or wanting the kids fawning over him because he's the richest man, he and his company are in the news for negative shyt too.

and i guess that lack of general knowledge consumption and ignorance is reflected in this factoid:
"Records show that fewer than 1 percent of students passed the math portion of a 2019 national standardized test administered by the District, and about 16 percent passed the English portion."

Bill Gates and Steve Jobs are simply more famous than him, its not that deep

that’s all it boils down to plus what’s deemed as “important” to kids nowadays...if I were still teaching and I asked the kids to raise their hands if they know who jeff bezos is...I’d be surprised to see more than 5 hands go up in a class of 30...and that would include white and asian kids as well...many kids nowadays are very dense about the world around them outside of music/reality television :mjcry: it’s also ironic that the internet/social media has them more detached from the world even tho it should expose them to it more as far as shyt that is happening

I went to the most hood high school in my region and we all knew who Bill Gates was...he was the richest dude in the world, how could you not know who he was?

nah, for this generation if you ain't balling, rapping, or an internet personality, you're a nobody. Generation "Meh" gotta hold that L :umad:

What about all those Amazon warehouses/whole food shopper jobs that have popped up in my city and all over N America? Easy to get jobs. Flexible hours. Jobs where u can move up in positions. And those warehouses/supermarkets are filled with Black faces. And they only do oral drug tests where u just have to be clean for one day. I should know because I'm constantly giving referrals for them. Are u saying that dont count?
:usure: Last thing you need is a Amazon warehouse in your city. Not to mention they didnt pay federal taxes this year
Amazon Warehouses May Leave Cities Worse For Wear

Lol they could of gotten Robert Downey and pretended he was tony stark.

but Bezos probably needs to work on his publicity more. He probably enjoyed this though.
