The dangerous fallacy of "You can do it."

How did you get ANY of that from what I said??

There is no such thing as "dead end jobs" there are only jobs.

"Dead end" is simply BULLSHIT assholes use to look down on others.

There ARE plenty of people who work long term, and support families off of low wages jobs. 

"Dead end" would be what asholes like Gotti did, rip people off, extort them, and murder them.

Why should you, or anyone judge someone who works as a janitor or hotel maid or gas station clerk for a lifetime at the same place or same payscale?

It IT IS NOT impossible that people move up. But it is simply being a fucking dick to those who don't by using words like "dead end".

Nobody is saying "aim low". I AM saying life isn't a script, and some people simply do what they have to.

Yes, there IS such a thing as a dead end job. It’s generally defined as one where there is little or no chance of advancement.  It isn’t meant to be a criticism of the person doing the job, but of the job itself.

Actually, Gotti wasn’t in a dead end job at all. He started as an associate and worked his way up to boss (although it’s fair to point out that a large part of his career advancement scheme involved killing people who held the job he wanted, especially Paul Castellano).

When did I judge anyone for the work they do? The only judgement I made was about your own lack of ambition.

Pour yourself a shot of peanut butter whiskey. I think you need it. Maybe a double.
