I feel like they should have fact checked this last guy. logistically how is a public school teacher traveling 1-2 weeks a month while school is in session?

Chat-GPT ass article. No fucking way that guy exists.

I believe it! My baby sister is a Berkeley High grad, my mom taught at a cute local preschool for like 8 years. There is no shortage of out of touch trust fund dipshits around, but this anecdote truly makes no sense, top to bottom. Even as a lie it doesn’t hold up.

> I had the opportunity to speak at a conference in Dubai, and the Dubai government funded my transportation and hotel. > I used to work at Subway during the summer in high school for 60 hours a week. Neither of these things sound true. He never mentions any names. What a weird article

Close enough. A more Finnish way would be to say "He showed us the jay's eggs" (don’t ask).

Everyone has worked with this guy and everyone cheered internally when he left. It is not possible to have EIGHT minors unless you went to school for a minimum of eight years.

my fellow Americans, we are getting absolutely cooked in the quote posts. I translated one from Portuguese that said “1-2 weeks of vacation a year? and they still consider themselves a first-world country?”

They're right though. Asking for vacation time I earned is a humiliation ritual. I feel like Oliver Twist

😂.. I was waiting for comments from Europe on this (and with all the traveling he does during his micro-retirements, you'd think Joshua Charles would know this about Europe)..

I'm a lot older than the Gen-Zs that they're talking about. I took my current job a few years ago and negotiated everything else, but they stood firm that the amount of vacation was the same for everyone, so I'm stuck with that and the only way to get more would be to switch jobs...

Two years at a company is just when people start hitting their stride and I'd hope management types would see that they could stem the bleeding by giving people an adequate amount of vacation and maybe even a sabbatical every X years, but I doubt it.

I love that our "trend" was moving back home after college because there were no jobs available and no way for us to afford rent/pay a mortgage.

Maybe Gen Z will editorially be allowed to grow up while millennials will forever be perceived as the youth as we enter middle age.

ok wait shoutout to @mmasnick.bsky.social for the investigative work, here's what we know about Benjamin Fields: 1. he teaches high school online and sometimes does so remotely via VPN 2. the guy who wrote the fast company piece also wrote this piece 3. I don't think it's much of a secret now!!

Looks like he does the high school in person except for saving up all his days for a big trip, so that's slightly less insane. All the university stuff is what he's "secretly" traveling constantly for in the summer it seems? Still doesn't 100% make sense

I will go so far as to say it sucks. Toast is fine, avocado is fine, mixing them doesn’t make either better. Gimme some tasty jam and keep the avocado for lunch where it belongs
