This is what I have noticed: You can be an absolute terrible employee, but if you always show up on time and almost never call in sick, you are never fired. I've witnessed so many employees with a rude , surly attitude, but they are on time for work.
My dad came back from the Korean war and was able to buy a home and rasie four kids on one salary working as a Union warehouse worker. Teamster! Try that these days.
in the modern days, your dad would be a non unionized contract worker making 11.50 an hr with no benefits or retirment. He;d have to work 60 to 70 hours a week to support his family, alongside his wifes full time income. Al the while, he'd be called a lazy communist union lover who should pull himself up by his bootstraps and start a business
@@eggshells652 Most young workers are lazy/fragile these days. Like in this video, they expect fast promotions. Here's an example. A 25 year-old girl in my office constantly complains that she's "barely making MacDonald's wages." (Then go work there!) She also has a tendency to run off and cry in the bathroom when deadlines get hectic. (At least 10 times last year) Yet she'd tell everyone what a valuable employee she is. People don't see their own negative qualities.
@@Nepthu lol. young workers are just furious that wages haven't kept up with the cost of living. why the fuck should we care about these jobs? employers don't give a fuck about us.
+Angel Holbrook You're so right about that... even the ones that would be considered "elitist/racist/misogynistic/politically incorrect" in today's world. They are simple truths about life and people, which are somehow taboo now. It makes perfect sense considering the world we now live in.
@Patrick C The loyalty they talked about here is not speaking bad about your company to anyone. Especially when you're planning to work in a new company. No company would want any one bad mouthing their organization.
@@vaporwave-man agreed. Still, this was from a time where prospective employees had to work to impress their possible employer. In today's world, it's often the company who must offer promises of benefits, flexible hours and higher pay just to find people to work. It used to be that an employee did everything to stay on their boss's good side, but now it's the boss who has to worry about claims of discrimination, hurt feelings and walking a fine line between managing and being called a "bully".
All very good points. Personally, I have worked for organizations where the boss had his 'favorites' who could do no wrong no matter what. Demoralizing to personnel pulling more than their weight.
Something like this should be shown to all high schoolers today. Sometimes even smart young people just aren’t aware of how important principles are so valued in the work force.
As a young person, this job market for young people is brutal. Its nothing like it was during this videos production. In the 40's - 60's the boom of production in american factories created jobs. That and the GI bill used to pay any lost wages to anyone who served in wwii. (Well anyone who wasnt black or american indian atleast, they were both excluded) Theres nothing like the social safety nets available back then for workers nowadays that would allow you to switch jobs. You think anyone can afford to search for a better job for a month or longer? Then worst of all no matter how much you make its not enought to ever buy a house. I have 6 figures and i still have most of eaten away from cost if living. And its not biden it has been rising cost of living since 2008 financial crisis it hit ridiculous levels of inflation during pandemic first begginning and now the ukraine war too. Its not as simple as many old folk seem to think it is. We young folk have some of the hardest workers that ive ever seen but theres the saying that goes "good workers are only rewarded with more work" there is nothing motivating us workers to do anything but the bare minimum
@@EnCounterCultureMedia I would normally listen to what you are saying, but the fact that you have to go to the bathroom and fart every day is disgusting.
I just got a new job working for a podiatrist. He is an independent practitioner, and I'm actually his only employee. He's a good boss, and the experience I'm getting is...unparalleled. In any bigger medical practice with more employees, I would start in reception or records and move on to billing or management or something like that with a series of promotions over the course of months or years. But I get to learn all of that at once.
Thanks for posting! In these hard times, a helpful video like this can make a difference in the lives of many. Thanks to the advice in this film I can turn around my descent into the gutter.
Yes my boyfriend just had that happened to him he busted his butt off for the job work hard and fast trying to be the best and he thought that he was going to be promoted to manger but no that gave it to someone else that he trained and haven’t been there that long he said that they was playing Favoritism because that guy jokes with everyone and eat with them and my boyfriend is more to him self he was so mad that he wanted to quit but he needs a job so now he’s going to punish them by doing the Minimum work
0:41 nice add, but in some high finance companies it's the opposite today. they want experience and it helps to be a psychopath instead of interpersonal skills
Walter is what we call a "Minimalist" as he does minimal amount of the work and is happy with that, never go above and beyond . We have plenty of those in Union paid jobs or our Government workers. Also many individuals are just "Unemployable" and find many excuses for not working.
I realize you wrote your comment 3 years ago, but in response I have to say the working world has just changed so much in even the last 20 years, never mind the last 70. You could own a house and a car and raise a family on a single income working 40 hours a week. Today, workers aren't fairly compensated against inflation, managers are brutal, people don't get promoted from within, and job security is almost zero. I think with younger generations the idea is more along the lines of proper work/life balance and "I'll respect my boss if he respects me." Why should someone go over and above if they don't see the managers doing that? Pizza parties and candy bars aren't a way to incentivize employees to go above and beyond, higher wages are. Would you not agree?
I work with a few guys who have a pretty tight seal on my boss's anus. When they get done with their kissing session I can smell it on their breath. lol Everyone hates an ass kisser.
And you forgot to mention that Bob could do everything he was asked.. Work himself to death and in the end still get laid off because his boss was tired of him working harder then =he was and making him look bad.
He didn’t get FIRED. He got LAID OFF. Firing is the fault of the individual person, due to that person’s lack of skill or competence or responsibility or fitness for the job. Laying off is due to matters within the organization and is NOT the fault of the person.
right you are. Even in the 1960s it was a good time for blue collar workers. I had an uncle who worked his way up to being a forman at a diesel engine plant. He made enough money to have a beautiful home and a new car "every 2 years" . Supported 3 children and a wife. Meanwhile, my dad had a PHD and years of education, he was acollege professor. He did not make anywhere near the money my blue collar uncle did, not even close
@@sophieminter0 well, not that sad. There can be physical dangers in a blue collar job, Besides my dad couldn't do that type job anyway, he was a partially disabled war veteran
I look at a job as a learning process like school (You can get out of the learning but it always finds your way back) the more you play the game the easier and better it be comes. (And I wouldn't be surprise if the boys started out little then in about 30 years there like Great Danes)
I worked a job where several employees would stand in front of the timeclock a good 15 minutes before clocking out instead of working on the floor and getting the place in order for the next shift. Those employees usually had the worst attitudes towards their jobs and coworkers too.
I hate these types of people. I can't wrap my brain around that kind of mindset. Especially people that leave things in a mess, or otherwise undesirable state for others to deal with, unnecessarily adding to their work load. I'd like to see more people call them out on it and slap the living sh*t out of them for being so rude and stupid.
18 months on a previous job!?! I was under the impression back in those days people got into a job after high school (or college) and pretty much stayed with it for most of their lives or at least 10 years.
Not all the baby boomers had cradle to grave jobs. I'm a boomer but still younger than most. Those jobs where starting to disappear. In 1978 I graduated highschool. 🎉It's really a bit of a misnomer 🎉that all baby boomers slid through with lots of $$$$. Me and lots of others.
'cooperation si another way to keep a job' and get taken advantage of, too And then asked for more, and more.. till you're barely doing the job you're 'supposed' to be doing in the first place.
I think adults need to go again and give advice to young people. And young people should stop been so snub and get humble to receive advice from older people.
Gabrielle Cormier Um I'm from this generation and yes we are a snubbier generation. It's crazy how at work I can easily strike up a convo with a woman from her 50s than one in her 20s (my age!). They're more pre occupied with their phone lives than what's around them in real.
I'm starting to think that our generation needs to watch these 1950's videos - they would be insightful for us. We've become too selfish, spoiled, and entitled.
I work for UPS and I give them two thumbs up!! More thumbs up if I had more than two hands. Wages are lower at first (about 9.50/hr now to start) and work areas are hot (no AC inside the main building). But if a person can wait, wages do go up and the benefits are great. UPS pays 99% of major medical and there is no deduction from paychecks. Promtions are slow in coming but turnover is low. Part time supervisors work awfully hard. Still a good company though.
Notice how he gets out of his chair and elevates himself when lectuing this guy, he does not resume his chair but rudely sits on his desk so as to dominate this guy. He is saying by posture, I am superior to you and you must except what I say with out discussion.
"most companies welcome suggestions" Me 3 days ago: "Boss, can we not make the room being renovated and treated for asbestos our temporary supply room? The tent is falling down. Can we please get our building access back? The pandemic precautions are over, and we had a shooting recently Can we please fire the racist psychopath who keeps touching biohazards with his bare hands, then picking his ears and touching people's food/things patients touch? It's been nearly 4 years, can you please order us some gloves and hire someone for our shift?"
In China, I once had jobs that required me to work 16 hours per day, 6 days a week and only day off every two weeks. We call it long week and short week. The payment is around 450$/month. They provide food and a dorm room though.
@@MrSoldierperson I lost mine when COVID started thanks to it being a small airport struggling when nobody was travelling. It took me a year to find another job. I couldn't even get a part time minimum wage job ffs. Maybe I wasn't diverse enough.
It's a shame that these rules don't apply anymore in the workforce. If you want to get anywhere in life, you're better off doing your time, then dropping the job for a better paying one. It's not as if the employer would give a crap about you. You're just a number.
economically speaking, the 50s did not suck. the united states, following wwii, had the only thriving industrial economy in the world. you could get one of those factory jobs off of a high school education and put two kids through college
Imagine the concept of a Hiring Manager being a Mentor to job candidates during interviews and hiring them despite the fact they had been fired from their previous place of employment. If he would have kicked him to the curb because he got fired from his last job after 18 months, the guy may have floundered without a job for weeks or even months and turned to something like stealing or selling things that are illegal. That was 1949?
getting fired wouldn't be what ended cost him the job because if you explain the company "retrenched" or re-organized, lying to the interviewer would probably cost you the job.
thats a specious argument though because he had an official document that said his employment was terminated due to retrenchment. a proper labour union could have helped him in that situation however 🙂
Dear God,if only a Hiring Manager would actually be that kind enough to be a mentor.Unfortunately in the real world this probably almost never happens,friends.At least it never did happen to me,God knows.I would have loved for this to have happened,but sadly ir never did for me.
In real life, the hiring manager would have quickly thanked him for coming in, and let him now that they would "call him" in a week about the hiring decision---basically that means that he didn't get the job.
I had to pause at about 3 minutes in because this is what struck me. I have been unemployed for a long while now, even though I am a hard worker and talented in many ways. But this is how I feel from what I seen and experienced. Men will take young men under their wings. They see ambition and drive in them and imagine or remember themselves or think of their sons, perhaps even the son they never had and want to nurture them and make something of them. Give them a hand up. It makes them feel a bit of a hero. As a woman, a man looks at her, if she is attractive, not as her daughter but as a someone they want to sleep with. If they are not single and moral, they will not hire them because they fear the constant distraction and temptation. If it is a female in the position of hiring, they aren't going to want an attractive or potentially more talented woman stepping in because they don't see her as a daughter but a threat. Oh, I'm sure there is exceptions but for the most part...if I was to guess I'd say this is true in 90% of the situations in the work force. I have been continually and consistently sabotaged at my jobs, by both jealous women and lusting men. I now live on $600 a month SSI. I pay $200 rent, put $200 in saving and live on $50 week. That is preferred to putting up with the emotional pain of jealous, insecure, cruel and competitive people for what amounts, to not much more. I could seriously cry.
summer fields I think assuming men are sexist just because they're men is in and of itself sexist. I understand you feel frustrated by being unemployed, but have you ever stopped to think that maybe it isn't biological facts about you stopped you from getting hired, but your already defeated attitude you have? Feeling a little down because you can't find work is normal, but shifting the blame to something else isn't going to help you. Women all over are employed without being conventionally pretty, and even ones that are don't necessarily get hired because of sexism.Getting sour because you assume things about male co-workers is a sure way to keep yourself unemployed. Call and ask the next time you interview but don't qualify why they didn't want to hire you. Maybe you're looking for jobs that just don't suit your personality. That's something hiring managers can tell. Just because you work, oh, say you work retail mostly, just as an easy example, you're always a store manager when you work. Just because that's what you have been doing doesn't mean it's automatically for you. If you're not especially sales and customer oriented, but you're a good leader and you work hard, you're not going to be good for the job even if you do your best. That leader experience you had is still valuable, and could be enough to catch the eye of a hiring manager in some other industry. So, basically, as one unemployed woman to another, stop feeling sorry for yourself, and get out there and keep trying. The way you talk, it sure sounds like you want things to change. On your own, right now, you can't change a damn thing about what other people are doing, but you can change something about yourself, and that something is the defeatist attitude you're wallowing in. Get it together, are you a capable worker or aren't you?
summer fields Well, happy birthday! Will it sting a little less if I tell you it was a cupcake flavored slap in the face? I'm glad you got pep out of it. I was prepared to be blocked. Not everyone appreciates getting some necessary tough lovin'.
I was a stay home mom and wife for 20 years, ran a daycare and restored antiques. I've been a household manager, personal assistant and Nanny. But I've had more jobs than I could list really! lol
How to keep a job: Giggle to yourself frequently, develop an interest in firearms and practice your thousand-yard stare.. They'll pay you to call off once or twice a month, every time. All kidding aside, I thought they were gonna get back there, Ed was gonna meet Wally and the boss was gonna tell him, "Walter meet your replacement, Ed...oh btw, you're fired." xp
So it is alright for the company to over work the worker and complain about his short comings, but if the worker does the same he is getting above the company. By what right does this company claim superiority, like a master to a slave, none I tell you!
His parents generation almost all wore ties to work, even to bread lines during the depression, it was the daily dress norm. It wouldn’t be too far fetched to say ties were commonly worn for entry level work in 1949.
Nowadays corporations come in and blueprint your processes and force you to put together SOP’s and then once they have all that your job goes to third world countries.
$9.50 an hour is a FABULOUS starting wage. Seriously. I've been working at the same minimum wage for more than a year at Dollar Tree. Don't ever work there. They treat their employees like crap.
Exactly AND employers would never talk to you like that.Giving u advice and stuff unless they like you for some reason.If not,they'll try to push you around.Nobody will LISTEN to you.Things were so different back then..

I think adults need to go again and give advice to young people. And young people should stop been so snub and get humble to receive advice from older people.
I wonder who taught them to be so...snub.
+anticdisposition ourselves.
Gabrielle Cormier Um I'm from this generation and yes we are a snubbier generation. It's crazy how at work I can easily strike up a convo with a woman from her 50s than one in her 20s (my age!). They're more pre occupied with their phone lives than what's around them in real.
gadget00 coming from a babyboomer lol
Kids don't take advice from adults they don't respect. And nowadays there are few adults that act respectably
I'm starting to think that our generation needs to watch these 1950's videos - they would be insightful for us. We've become too selfish, spoiled, and entitled.
The Coronet Virus has me housebound for months.
if you make spelling errors on your applications like you do in your comments, that isn't surprising

Does anybody know who the actor playing Walter/Bob is? Because he also plays Bob in 'How Honest Are You?'
I work for UPS and I give them two thumbs up!! More thumbs up if I had more than two hands. Wages are lower at first (about 9.50/hr now to start) and work areas are hot (no AC inside the main building). But if a person can wait, wages do go up and the benefits are great. UPS pays 99% of major medical and there is no deduction from paychecks. Promtions are slow in coming but turnover is low. Part time supervisors work awfully hard. Still a good company though.
Better start doing your job and ring peoples doorbells!!!
9 years later...
Are you still working at the UPS??
They're going broke soon. Many lay offs! ☠️🎱
Watching for instructions
I love the main character's voice. The high schooler dude/boy. He's also very handsome too.
Notice how he gets out of his chair and elevates himself when lectuing this guy, he does not resume his chair but rudely sits on his desk so as to dominate this guy. He is saying by posture, I am superior to you and you must except what I say with out discussion.
"most companies welcome suggestions"
Me 3 days ago:
"Boss, can we not make the room being renovated and treated for asbestos our temporary supply room? The tent is falling down.
Can we please get our building access back? The pandemic precautions are over, and we had a shooting recently
Can we please fire the racist psychopath who keeps touching biohazards with his bare hands, then picking his ears and touching people's food/things patients touch?
It's been nearly 4 years, can you please order us some gloves and hire someone for our shift?"
And what the answer you get?
where I can get the full series of these films?
Ed really has no idea how to interview. He's terrible in the interview.
why because hes honest? 😀
Dave Shaver You never bash your former employer.
why because they never deserve it? lol jk 😉
@@davidjamesshaver its called being an adult. There is honesty and then there is saying too much. Its best to be tactful.
If they bashed their former employer that they will bash your company too. He also lied about why he left. Who knows what else he lied about.
Gosh, Mr. Smith. I didn't MEAN to touch his daughter...
In China, I once had jobs that required me to work 16 hours per day, 6 days a week and only day off every two weeks. We call it long week and short week. The payment is around 450$/month. They provide food and a dorm room though.
Also I suspect Walter is spying on Bob's every move.
Walter probably works for senator McCarthy also...
Oh Wow!! This one's in color. lol
The only thing missing from the list of good work qualifications is skill. To be really marketable you need skills that are in demand.
But in real life you can not appear to be smarter than your boss, whether you are Walter or Bob.
I wished they would dont more shows like that. I like this channel.
I wish it were the 1950's again, when there were jobs.
There are jobs now!! Stop being lazy.
@@MrSoldierperson I lost mine when COVID started thanks to it being a small airport struggling when nobody was travelling. It took me a year to find another job. I couldn't even get a part time minimum wage job ffs. Maybe I wasn't diverse enough.
No one needs a job today. AI and UBI will take care of that.
Walter probably listens to the song "Take this job and shove it" by Johnny Paycheck.
😂😆😆
It's a shame that these rules don't apply anymore in the workforce. If you want to get anywhere in life, you're better off doing your time, then dropping the job for a better paying one. It's not as if the employer would give a crap about you. You're just a number.

economically speaking, the 50s did not suck. the united states, following wwii, had the only thriving industrial economy in the world. you could get one of those factory jobs off of a high school education and put two kids through college
I just need to get a job first 😂
lol
I cringed when the dude knocked his former employer in the interview.
Imagine the concept of a Hiring Manager being a Mentor to job candidates during interviews and hiring them despite the fact they had been fired from their previous place of employment. If he would have kicked him to the curb because he got fired from his last job after 18 months, the guy may have floundered without a job for weeks or even months and turned to something like stealing or selling things that are illegal. That was 1949?
getting fired wouldn't be what ended cost him the job because if you explain the company "retrenched" or re-organized, lying to the interviewer would probably cost you the job.
thats a specious argument though because he had an official document that said his employment was terminated due to retrenchment. a proper labour union could have helped him in that situation however 🙂
Dear God,if only a Hiring Manager would actually be that kind enough to be a mentor.Unfortunately in the real world this probably almost never happens,friends.At least it never did happen to me,God knows.I would have loved for this to have happened,but sadly ir never did for me.
In real life, the hiring manager would have quickly thanked him for coming in, and let him now that they would "call him" in a week about the hiring decision---basically that means that he didn't get the job.
I had to pause at about 3 minutes in because this is what struck me. I have been unemployed for a long while now, even though I am a hard worker and talented in many ways. But this is how I feel from what I seen and experienced. Men will take young men under their wings. They see ambition and drive in them and imagine or remember themselves or think of their sons, perhaps even the son they never had and want to nurture them and make something of them. Give them a hand up. It makes them feel a bit of a hero. As a woman, a man looks at her, if she is attractive, not as her daughter but as a someone they want to sleep with. If they are not single and moral, they will not hire them because they fear the constant distraction and temptation. If it is a female in the position of hiring, they aren't going to want an attractive or potentially more talented woman stepping in because they don't see her as a daughter but a threat. Oh, I'm sure there is exceptions but for the most part...if I was to guess I'd say this is true in 90% of the situations in the work force. I have been continually and consistently sabotaged at my jobs, by both jealous women and lusting men. I now live on $600 a month SSI. I pay $200 rent, put $200 in saving and live on $50 week. That is preferred to putting up with the emotional pain of jealous, insecure, cruel and competitive people for what amounts, to not much more. I could seriously cry.
summer fields I think assuming men are sexist just because they're men is in and of itself sexist. I understand you feel frustrated by being unemployed, but have you ever stopped to think that maybe it isn't biological facts about you stopped you from getting hired, but your already defeated attitude you have? Feeling a little down because you can't find work is normal, but shifting the blame to something else isn't going to help you. Women all over are employed without being conventionally pretty, and even ones that are don't necessarily get hired because of sexism.Getting sour because you assume things about male co-workers is a sure way to keep yourself unemployed. Call and ask the next time you interview but don't qualify why they didn't want to hire you. Maybe you're looking for jobs that just don't suit your personality. That's something hiring managers can tell. Just because you work, oh, say you work retail mostly, just as an easy example, you're always a store manager when you work. Just because that's what you have been doing doesn't mean it's automatically for you. If you're not especially sales and customer oriented, but you're a good leader and you work hard, you're not going to be good for the job even if you do your best. That leader experience you had is still valuable, and could be enough to catch the eye of a hiring manager in some other industry.
So, basically, as one unemployed woman to another, stop feeling sorry for yourself, and get out there and keep trying. The way you talk, it sure sounds like you want things to change. On your own, right now, you can't change a damn thing about what other people are doing, but you can change something about yourself, and that something is the defeatist attitude you're wallowing in. Get it together, are you a capable worker or aren't you?
Wow! It's a birthday slap in the face! LOL I can take it though, really, I needed that! ;)
summer fields Well, happy birthday! Will it sting a little less if I tell you it was a cupcake flavored slap in the face?
I'm glad you got pep out of it. I was prepared to be blocked. Not everyone appreciates getting some necessary tough lovin'.
LOL
I was a stay home mom and wife for 20 years, ran a daycare and restored antiques. I've been a household manager, personal assistant and Nanny. But I've had more jobs than I could list really! lol
"Did I ever tell you about my twin brother?" - dude, we just met, so no-
Walter probably took so long because he kept smelling all the copies.
Me too. Gee, weren't they swell!
How to keep a job: Giggle to yourself frequently, develop an interest in firearms and practice your thousand-yard stare.. They'll pay you to call off once or twice a month, every time.
All kidding aside, I thought they were gonna get back there, Ed was gonna meet Wally and the boss was gonna tell him, "Walter meet your replacement, Ed...oh btw, you're fired." xp
How can I keep it jf I can't find it!
So it is alright for the company to over work the worker and complain about his short comings, but if the worker does the same he is getting above the company. By what right does this company claim superiority, like a master to a slave, none I tell you!
I expected a commercial "white washed" infovideo, but these videos show common sense, humanity and credibility. I am pretty suprised.
You and your spouse basically have to live at work just to be able to live well.

At least Walter showed up on time.
He wears a tie in the shipping department. Even in 1949, I don't think this is very accurate, do you?
His parents generation almost all wore ties to work, even to bread lines during the depression, it was the daily dress norm. It wouldn’t be too far fetched to say ties were commonly worn for entry level work in 1949.

Nowadays corporations come in and blueprint your processes and force you to put together SOP’s and then once they have all that your job goes to third world countries.
$9.50 an hour is a FABULOUS starting wage. Seriously.
I've been working at the same minimum wage for more than a year at Dollar Tree. Don't ever work there. They treat their employees like crap.
If they would let you do your job and not standing over breathing on you neck and in personal space is what your saying
what is this guys name? He is almost in every video on this channel.
Why is this video shadow banned? Try searching for it
Ok that joke at the end made me crack.
Exactly AND employers would never talk to you like that.Giving u advice and stuff unless they like you for some reason.If not,they'll try to push you around.Nobody will LISTEN to you.Things were so different back then..
Entirely different generation running the show then... 1949 would have been the WW1 boys
Why do the factory jobs 100 years ago look much more desirable than those now?
