Grown Up Babies Playing Video Games

So used to action Everything fast paced Instant gratification Worlds away from reality First job, too boring Find out they have to take orders? No way! Lots of cleaning. What is the point? Annoyed at the slow pace, the tedious repetitiveness. Become irritated, quit. Thinking someone else will pay your way For the rest of your life? Sadly, it happens for some Parents enabling these grown up babies Until they are crippled Playing video games all night Sleeping during the day Living in their parents’ home well into their 50’s, Never being accountable, never paying a bill. They are in for a big shock when something happens to their parents.

So true (not for all but some) I think people think coming to the library to work will be easy but when stuck and scrambling in the sorter room...not so easy. ...running out of carts. Reality strikes!
