11. Don’t follow directions
When applying for jobs, go to the place you’re applying to and [make yourself a constant, present, nuisance].
Nobody likes that shit.
It literally announces “Not even hired, and l already cant follow simple directions, mind my business, or work well in teams”. #BoomerAdvice https://t.co/7lMedHmvQW

13. Turn the things you love into a burden
I used to think it was so smart but:
“Get a job you love and you’ll never work a day in your life.”
Absolute nonsense. https://t.co/d4IFui2Jgt

15. You should pay for something that’s supposed to be free
Public colleges used to be free. That was their original mission. Both my MIL and FIL received their college degrees for free.

17. Buy a house
That my husband(27) and I(24) were too young to buy a house because we werent sure if we would live in that house forever…. Boomers are still on that “buy a house and die in that house” shit.

18. Grad school is a great investment!
“Of course you can go to grad school! It’s only 4500 a year, which you can easily make working minimum wage over a summer!” #BoomerAdvice

19. But kids are not
“You’re too attached to your kid. You should put him in daycare and go back to work.”
Dude, he was 2 years old. There are many reasons to go back to work, but being “too attached” to a toddler isn’t one of them. https://t.co/zkQaAa1Ex6

20. The mailroom is a direct line to the executive suite
Told my step dad I wanted to make comics. He said I needed to start at the mail room of the comic book factory and work my way up. https://t.co/wJzxxZJhxO
