I like to think of myself as a born-and-raised Midwesterner. While this may sound like an oxymoron, I don’t mean it to be one. There is a lot of stuff that I do that I did not expect to be doing at the age of twenty-six. I have learned that there is another way to be a grown-up, and it involves the use of a very important tool: the automobile.
The term “blue collar baby” was coined by a couple of my favorite writers from the ’80s, Dave Kopf and Scott Turow. While the name may sound like one of those super-spooky names that has an old-timey vibe to it, it actually refers to a certain type of person who can do most of their chores for a family of three with relative ease. I mean, it really is that easy.
For the most part, blue collar babies don’t look like stereotypical baby boomers. They’re quite a bit older, have more experience, and can usually do all the chores. They’re also usually better with the kids. I was a kid growing up in the 90s and I remember my mom’s friends always getting along much more smoothly with their kids than we did. I guess it’s just the nature of kids.
The other thing that makes working with kids easier is that they tend to take over your responsibilities. I once worked with a baby who kept taking over the job of washing my car. When I asked him, he told me I should just clean my own car. Because I had to use all of the laundry baskets, I had to do that myself.
In today’s society, we tend to take a lot more of our own work for granted. We don’t have to put in the hours because our employers expect us to. They expect us to do the things that make us happy. We are expected to do things for the sake of our families and relationships.
If we expect other people to be doing things for the sake of our families and relationships, then we are not going to be happy for very long.
I know this is an extreme example, but it’s the truth. If you expect that your work is going to be done for you alone, you can expect a lot of your work to go unappreciated, unappreciated for even a moment. People have been doing things for my family and my relationships for a long time now, and I have had to do everything myself. I used to be a very independent person. Now I have to work for it.
The truth is, bluecollarbaby’s biggest job is taking care of my parents. That’s a huge amount of work, and it’s a job that I hate.
That’s why I am not a fan of bluecollarbaby. There are a lot of people who aren’t doing that shit. I think we have to start a movement to get those people to do it. If we can start working towards the idea of “self-employment” in which everyone is expected to do at least a small amount of work for themselves, then it’s just a matter of time.
What I mean by that is, I think we need to start a movement to get those people to do it. It is a lot of work. It takes time. It takes energy. Thats why its such a big deal. I think it is a sign of how far we’ve come in a generation that we can start taking on less of that shit.
