Hustle? In this gig economy?
I mean, or it could be one of those high school aptitude tests where they try to figure out how to guide you in your future career. If someone picked an unstable career, it makes sense to follow up with the realities of it.
Idk about you guys, but they did this shit with me and my classmates back in the 90s and early aughts.
It’s an out of context image that has no other presence on the web aside from the memes, so it’s likely just rage bait bullshit.
Q: What career would you like to pursue? A: art or music
Q: are you ok with …(see post) A: no
What this tells the student is that you may want to reconsider your path if you’re not cool with a bit of uncertainty.
If the person was cool with those stakes for the sake of their passion, then fuckin right on dude
If you present the decision tree with a series of Boolean options, a correct or incorrect approach makes sense. Again, this shit was a thing back in the 90s and it was all about guiding kids by showing them a gentle reality of choices. Not dystopian at all.
