NEW: American teenagers are reportedly facing the worst summer job market since the 1940s.

@Polymarket Imagine all teens can do Uber Eats, instead everyone trying to feed their families from uber

@Polymarket While the nonfarm payrolls has surged this May

@Polymarket But jobs report saying lots of jobs added? How is that possible

@Polymarket wtf do you mean teens in the 40's could start a life long career with defense contractors for their first summer job. It's ok a draft will fix all the problems with the economy as it always does. lol..

@Polymarket I thought every american kid was earning thousands from apps? dkm

@Polymarket Yikes . I had no clue they meant this was the Golden Age. Vote Blue for God Sakes

@Polymarket That can't be right? Are we in the middle of a world war and a global recession?

@Polymarket teen summer job market collapsing while ai automates entry level work. this one actually matters long term - that's where most people learn that work has consequences.

@Polymarket theres no need to hire dem .. keep them on the sidelines til morale improves

@Polymarket Importing millions of low skilled third world immigrants has consequences

@Polymarket I mean I wonder why if all the teens now this days all they do is nothing n want all serve in plate ummmmmmm

@Polymarket - Test military capabilities in the middle east - Destroy job market so young people have nowhere to go but the military - Start WW3

@Polymarket Entry-level jobs are often the first to disappear in uncertain markets.

There are jobs everywhere I look. It’s that no one wants to work these jobs where your beat to the ground mentally/physically (if you’re actually trying and not a POS) and treated like shit by the public/Management for close to nothing, because our money is worthless now. There are no GOOD jobs is the issue.

@Polymarket Worst summer job market since the 1940s but TikTok influencers are making more than their grandparents did in a decade. The real crisis is nobody wants to teach teens that "content creator" isn't a backup plan, it's the plan that ate the backup.

@Polymarket the entry level job market collapsing for teenagers is the leading indicator that most economists won't talk about until it shows up in adult unemployment data two years later, the skills and work ethic that summer jobs used to build don't have an obvious replacement

@Polymarket It's because a lot of the companies don't hire in-house anymore. They contract out making for less liability. Remember when my company got bought out and I was one of the lucky ones they kept and they replaced all the employees with 1099 workers.

@Polymarket The whole market tightened, not just summer gigs. When applicants outnumber openings, the people who get through are the ones who show up specific instead of spraying the same resume everywhere.

@Polymarket Well most of them are too fragile or lazy to work.

@Polymarket Bc there’s 50 million third world savages doing the menial work in this country. We imported an entire slave class what do you expect?

@Polymarket the new summer job is creating a startup

@Polymarket This is why getting into investing is so important with the rise of AI replacing jobs you need to learn to make money on your own

@Polymarket What’s comments on this? If so many jobs were added then why are we getting to hear this? I guess we all know what the reality is! Trump is lying

@Polymarket Guess the only gig left is selling lemonade at the unemployment office.

@Polymarket Hard to build a career when the starting line keeps moving further away

@Polymarket ahh Summer of '40 Couldnt find blacksmithing work anywhere....

@Polymarket 🤔 I wonder why?

@Polymarket We had fast food restaurants to work at when I was a kid. Or bagging groceries etc

@Polymarket They can’t read, do math and have no morals. What did you expect?

@Polymarket "Reportedly" I could say teenagers are getting richer then ever this summer, and that would hold just as much water as this statement. Nonsense statements made with zero evidence.

@Polymarket Because they’re retarded and have zero knowledge of what “work ethic” is.

@Polymarket When in the 1940s exactly? When 3/4 of men in the country were fighting the japs and nazis?

@Polymarket Now prepare them for adulthood They will be competing with robots for jobs…

@Polymarket When boomers are delivering Amazon packages 📦 in an Acura SUV in my neighborhood… there is a canary in the coal mine

@Polymarket what a coincidence... the government has nearly the same solution for that teed up.

@Polymarket This has nothing to do with it, I'm sure.
