Also used his pipe to spray paint onto the ship. He's probably featuring on those "were you harmed by chemicals while working for the government?" class action lawsuit commercials.
@@dragonmanover9000We have seen Popeye literally eat spinach using his pipe. Unless Popeye has multiple pipes I'm pretty sure Popeye could feature on the TV show. 😅
I've worked in management for a long time. I can give one piece of advice with full confidence; it's not that people don't want to work, they just dont want to work for you.
People don’t always tell you what they are thinking, they just make sure don’t have the success you really want for yourself, as a blue collar guy I learned how to throttle everything, otherwise you will have your soul sucked out
I knew an owner who would say if they could pay their employees a dollar and hour, they would make a lot of money. Funny thing was half their employees were family and they wouldn't want to pay family that little money. It's just "the help" was the ones supposed to work for nothing.
this is especially true when you consider that most people only stick around their jobs because they like their coworkers (i think it was 60% of people or smthn)
This is exactly how I feel. Like, I'm definitely going to work my butt off, but it's going to be for my own business, not someone else's. I'm not working hard to make someone else rich ever again.
James 5:4-9 NASB1995 [4] Behold, the pay of the laborers who mowed your fields, and which has been withheld by you, cries out against you; and the outcry of those who did the harvesting has reached the ears of the Lord of Sabaoth. [5] You have lived luxuriously on the earth and led a life of wanton pleasure; you have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter. [6] You have condemned and put to death the righteous man; he does not resist you. [7] Therefore be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. The farmer waits for the precious produce of the soil, being patient about it, until it gets the early and late rains. [8] You too be patient; strengthen your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is near. [9] Do not complain, brethren, against one another, so that you yourselves may not be judged; behold, the Judge is standing right at the door.
They would never show anything like this. Building ships of war would be too political. Competition to go the fastest would be considered passe. Two white males being skilled and successful in a typically male-dominated field would be forbidden. Too much attention is placed on not offending and on representing microscopic portions of the population while also trying to affect social change.
Termites eating his house he built in seconds by tossing lumber into the air with a hammer, and then 10 seconds later he does the same with metal and them breaking all their teeth. What an episode
I looked up the wages for ship builders in WW22, and got a report on 1942 wages. The highest paid (pattern makers for 1.50 an hour, which is 28.74 today, and briefly skimmed the other wages, for which I believe the lowest paid employees were about half that. So not a bad living all things considering. Also, love Popeye :)
1, what the hell are you doing here newspaper zombie, don't you have brains to eat and newspaper puzzles to solve? 2, what does Curious George have to do with this? 3, how is this cringe?
It was nice when the products were just good, affordable and reliable. (And would never break) Nowadays everything you buy feels like a gimmicky scam. And 90% of everything requires subscriptions.
If WWIII won't happen and the world continues as is today in pattern everyone will probably live in augmented reality world more rather than doing normal human things outside irl (like in The Matrix, The Gamer, or the movie Bruce Willis was in).
Those houses had no AC, minimal appliances, possibly no hook ups for appliances, and were built by the local contractor non-union. People forget that with all of todays luxuries came additional crews and additional permits that increased the cost. Then you increase min wage and all those crews cost more to hire and all the materials cost more to get. This was also when a dollar a day wasn't just a saying but a descent wage.
@@steadholderharrington9035 exactly. People think a house for 8000 being cheap. No... Money was generally worth more in that sense. So instead of making let's say 1000 a month, you'd get like 100 maybe a month.
Spinach probably sends his superhuman strength, durability and agility into overdrive. But it might incur a cost on him, hence why he doesn't use it immediately, when he's in trouble. Or he wants the challenge of seeing how far he can get without using the spinach.
Here's the secret. He doesn't need the spinach. Never has. It's how he "gives himself permission" to use his full strength. Source: a close associate of Popeye who wishes to remain anonymous. I had to bribe him with many hamburgers.
During WWII, shipyards on the east and west coasts would compete over who could build Liberty ships the fastest. They got faster and more efficient as the war wore on. I think hat was the inspiration for this cartoon.
And the worse thing is that these companies SWARMING with desperate job candidates, wanting any job, even if it's cleaning public toilets with their own tongues. No wonder why bosses are egoistic asshats...
before... before physics was invented... you know physics are just the laws and properties that govern all matter in the known universe, right? And they always have? There must be a deeper joke I'm missing, I feel crazy
he made enough money to establish a popular chicken sandwich fast food chain, good for him while today, ship construction is a dead end job, you're basically doomed for Hernia in your 26 birthday
Before. Health n Safety and Time n motion ; Screwed up every job, with people that don't know the job telling you what you can n can't do. And how to make it more complicated to make it quicker
@@lilenwasnothere6867 well that and they aren't hand drawn anymore... the irony is that in digital drawing the correcting that the artist can do afterwards actually removes some of the organic nature of the animation, in real life we do not move perfectly, we have small imperfect twitches and ticks in our movement that makes each of us unique which was represented well in the tiny mistakes made between frames in hand-drawn animation. Modern stuff hits uncanny valley level because it's corrected and perfected making it too robotic.
I have an unpopular opinion about this, and I say this as someone who started at minimum wage in a fast food industry and moved into management and is making a lot more. When you do a good job for shit pay, you can get satisfaction knowing you did a good job, and doing a good job will eventually get you promoted. I think for a lot of people the low pay could be tolerable (when it is a precursor to upward mobility in pay and position) if management just acts like they recognize and appreciate it. So if a company expects their lowest paid workers to work this hard for crap pay, they should also expect their leaders to recognize that work, acknowledge it, and reward it.
That's the entire point, they don't. They just tell you day after day," there's a hundred people out there ready to take your job". Then and day they call us all in and give us this story that due to new economic realities that we have to take a pay cut. It's how we on the bottom end of the stick get it everytime. Hard work and doing the right thing doesn't guarantee a promotion or a pay increase.
this is mostly true in countries like USA where someone didnt regulate marked early enough and large, predatory pharmaceutical companies grew large enough to dictate regulations, effectively regulating market in their own accord. Thats why fair regulations and fair progressive taxation is necessary
@@OneWeirdDudehe definitely got paid OVER minimum wage..... Popeye probably got paid more than the ceo of any company he worked for just being bringing along his financial advisor, the can of spinach
@@Sombare1983have you worked ina minimum wage job in the last 15 years? Because most of them don't give you raises or promotions if you're already working hardest.
@@FexxerUwUBack then they were also smart enough to know that "increasing the minimum wage" by arbitrary law would do nothing but inflate the prices and make it so you couldn't live off of $0.30
@@jackbishop8610I think the inflation from the over print and mint of the us doller is the reason why costs are up. When there is more of something it's worth less. So essentially you're leaders. Biden. The second he gained power decided to destroy the dollar by printing 21 trillion dollers in 2021. Remember when the germans were in a time of crisis. So they printed more Mark's. Oh no now the mark is worth nothing and you need hundreds of it to by a single loaf of bread. Oh no the doller is worth less and now you need more just to get less. Milk used to be a doller now its five. When you have kids that drain the milk and bread that's buying milk and bread more than once a month. Eventually all the bites will be taken of my worth and I will be left with paltry scraps.
My Dad, a small business owner for going on 22 years always said "if you want minimum work, pay minimum wage, if you want good and honest work, pay a good and honest wage".
Too bad he didn't teach you how to do math, because businesses like Wal-Mart only make ~$1.50 per employee, per hour, which means raising minimum wage is exactly why prices have gone up, and that means the wage itself doesn't really matter, this was a lateral move for those workers in terms of spending power... but, they definitely managed to hurt retired people, homeless people, disabled people, etc., while helping out the billionaires with regulatory capture, lol.
Actually companies wanna declare they made record profit last quarter. It wouldn't have been possible without the blood sweat and tears of all the front line workers. As such, they will get a pizza party as a thank you. And remember, only one slice per person because they can't afford to reward you too generously.
Minimum wage used to mean "the minimum income required to support the average household in a months time" Over time it evolved into "the absolute minimum a company can possibly pay its employees without them being able to take legal action"
Minimum wage is also something you'd expect for an entry-level position for someone with absolutely no experience. Not a mid-tier or high-tier position for someone with plenty of experience.
I know a man who lived in the 'used to' period. He says it was never to support your average household. It was bare minimum because it was bare minimum. It was entry level pay.
Stagnation thanks to women joining labor force/job market in droves, mass and especiallt illegal migrations and the revolving door that that is as well as everybody being sold that anyone and everyone should and can go to college, neverending forever wars etc its one thing after the other and they all link up, one fuck up leads to the next😅
@@alfredocornelio4329 to be real, women joining the job market was a good thing because there wouldn't have been enough men left to manufacture the huge numbers of munitions spent in the wars. Even after that, you can't just tell someone "stop working and making money for yourself" and expect them to give up willingly. Not to mention the entire market that evolved out of selling to women, for better or worse.
Whenever I see a company offering the bare minimum they are required by law to pay, all that tells me is "If we could pay you nothing and use you for free labor, we would."
They absolutely would. I heard that slave owners in the 1800's used the same talking points that conservatives use today like "If we have to pay our workers then we wouldn't make as much money! That would be terrible for us! Think of the poor rich people!"
@@OutsiderLabs which is true, because the world has a lot more people these days. Everyone wants a job, everyone wants a house, everyone wants luxuries, but there's too many. Not saying I agree, if they wanna pay us less then give us less work. I'm not going to make my boss' problems vanish magically if he's paying me the bear minimum. If he wants me to, money talks, if he wants to stay silent that's fine by me. It's when they try to work you out of the company that I start getting a little red around the ears. They do it because, obviously, lotsa people, there's going to be some shmuck who's never had a full loaf of bread in his life, massively lowering his standards; the perfect minimum wageslave. Idc really, I'm not bending, I don't expect them to bend either, I just want honest pay for honest work.
"We're sorry Popeye, we cannot give you a raise. You have only attained what we expect you to perform, and we don't see any improvement, or push to exceed these expectations."
Can freaking relate, like, really? You put 40 (this is a real number of people in my classroom) people in the classroom, and expect them to stay quiet?
@@littlevirus3562I know a good teacher that can get 20 to be quiet for ~20 minute periods at a time, but any more is just impossible, and not to mention how much experience that teacher had…
And thus the problem of today's youth. You expect to come out of school making top wage. The issue is, you must pay your dues like your parents did before you. You want more than minimum wage? Show you are worthy of being paid more than minimum wage!!
Jobs should pay what the job is worth, some jobs are worth more than others and forcing an employer to pay an arbitrary “living wage” is utterly ridiculous!!
not true. in my hometown, minimum wage is now $17.50/hour yet housing and everything else just goes up alongside it. Landscapers now make the same as McDonalds workers. It's not right.
@@FredrickWilhelm-np6vi Flagstaff. Don't live there anymore though. I moved to a town where minimum wage is 12.50, making the same amount of money (20 an hour) and everything is cheaper. You need at least $30 an hour to live comfortably in my old town. a 1 bedroom apartment will run you about 2k a month. Where I'm at now, a 1 bedroom apartment is about 900 a month, and it's in the nice part of town
And yet it took them 3 years to get their asses across the ocean and start pulling their weight. Actually pulling it, I mean, not sending canned meat and meandering in Africa.
@@Alknix Cope. FDR was focused on fixing the problems in the nation first, but was still sending larger amounts of supplies to Australia, the UK, and The USSR. While we were inevitably going to get involved at some point, the bombing of Pearl Harbor is what kicked the nation into gear.
@@Speed4Runs The animators were paid well however as for that time they actually had reasonable pay instead of companies hogging all the money as most of those money hogging companies had been dissolved and carnegie steel was long gone along with those other previous tycoons.
It's the same thing. Synthesized images made by artists. The textures on 3d models are drawn just the same as they were 70 years ago. CGI doesn't just fall from the sky, there are tens of thousands of ppl worldwide who have made it their passion. And they have created incredible and beautiful images. It's up to the directors and studios to put it to good use tho
@@jakobfriedrich5117 It's not the same, though. I see what you mean about art assets, but all they had back then was onion skinning. Each active layer had to be redrawn by tweeners. For even more insane tweening, re-watch Akira, now that you have some experience under your belt. That level of fidelity is not possible in any CGI workflow
@@johntolbert7046 ... It just evolved. Akira was great marvel in its own time, but tech has already surpassed it to the point that they can do anything that was done before in software. We artist in vfx industries are always finding ways to improve what could be done before to be more efficient everyday, why? Because fuckers in the higher ups don't pay us more and expect what's happening in this Popeye scene. And bastards like you still thinking everything hand drawn takes more skill or something. In reality every piece of things people do in the industry takes a ton of fucking skill, but you just don't see it. And that's the magic behind it. We make it seamless and normal.
@@jakobfriedrich5117just like diecast model automobiles are the exactly the same as something that was hand carved with a pen knife. Please explain how computer Graphics is the same as using pens pencils brushes ink and paint. If you want to consider moving a mouse around talent, fine you go with that.
Yeah, now all corporations do to entertain the young is take a good-looking untalented person, slap ridiculous "clothing" on them, and use electronics to make it sound like they can sing when they can't. All for the low, low price of $2,000 a ticket. Act now, kids -- supplies are limited!
This is so true... Took me ages to get a minimum wage job (also my first job) that would pay me anywhere from $12-$16/hr. Had jobs turn me down for "not enough work experience" or since I was somehow overqualified. Luckily, ended up getting a job at UPS which allowed me to obtain a lot of work experience, meet great people, get promoted a few times, and make $21/hr. Now, I'm getting into welding~
