[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of people don't have the tenacity or the skills to do anything hard in life. This is why we need lower level jobs and smaller living spaces. Its also OK to be this type of person and live your life with your family. People do this all over the world and then they take care of their parents in old age. [/quote]

That's been my experience, that these people sometimes make really good caregivers or do well in other jobs that require work but not being super talented at a niche field.

And they do great work to help others, it's just not going to be earth shattering accomplishments or high earning.

They are why minimum wage needs to go up, so they can actually support themselves,.have a small apartment or condo or live with family, and be able to afford health care.

One really nice guy I knew like this ended up taking care of both his elderly parents and running a lawn care business, mostly cutting the lawns of elderly people in town. Another works as a CNA in a nursing home. Another is a cook who also takes care of his disabled brother. None of these people in the DC metro, becithey couldn't afford to live here.[/quote]

OP here, none of the young people I know who are like this strike me as the caregiving type. What struck me is what looked like laziness to me, even if it was their chosen field. If you are taking a class you like for example, wouldn’t you want to go the work?  Maybe it is indeed adhd but as I said one of them did the testing and nothing. Maybe it just takes them longer to find what they truly want to do.
I agree on the smaller spaces though and on very structured jobs with little initiative required that people like this could do. These are usually minimum wage jobs. [/quote]
