    In my area farms and branches that employ teenagers make sure to give them the easiest work. The reason being kids are vindictive little shits who will hold onto a grudge and only enact on it when you are at serious risk of mutilation or death, sure they could pull the emergency cord on the wood chipper or they can turn the other way and pretend to hear nothing. So teenagers do sales or porter work nothing strenuous.

    Also if my example seems weirdly specific that’s because it’s based off an incident in the 90s that is passed around as a cultural reinforcement of why you don’t piss off young workers. Not to say adults won’t also fuck you over but usually they have more autonomy allowing them to get it out of their system, more property damage less watching you die a pitiful death.

      In their fantasy, it’s not teenagers. Think more 12 and under. This was reality believe it or not, less than 100 yeas ago.

        Not saying they want teenagers, moreso pointing out that if teenagers can let nature takes its course on you then literal children would do it without hesitation. Children will literally watch a building burn in fascinated calmness before thinking to call 911 would anyone want to work around that. Not the kids fault they’re kids their brains aren’t fully formed that means they can be socially questionable little psychos.
