When I was a teenager I used to watch this video and think It was really inspirational Now That I'm an adult and I've been a Railroad worker for almost four years, I can say screw working that hard If it's your own business, knock yoursefl out with work If you're employed, you don't need to die or hurt yourself for anyone Get the money you need to live and go actually living Take a break Life is to short to risk It for a job

Daily reminder Mike Rowe is factually unemployed He's a wealthy former opera singer who comes from money All that grease and dirt on his face in the promotional shots of Dirty Jobs was literally makeup

Fast forward to 2024 and we can see he was right

Listening in 2024 boy did he hit the nail on the head Balanced human beings have completely gone out of style
Comment from : @JungleHomesteadMX

After getting a BA, MA, and Teaching Credential through 10 years of college I still don’t have a job and I’m unhappy with life I’m so bored Everybody told me to go to college because I could be great with an education but, I think I’d rather be happy than “great”

Comment from : @brandoncreel5845

I can't believe Mike came up with that speech almost completely impromptu Hearing his story of how he got the invite and events that led up to the speech is quite interesting
Comment from : @T51B1

Mike Rowe is such a great story teller that I am so amazed at how he explained it that the poetry of description he uses should be learned
Comment from : @dedrakuhn6103

He nailed it,nobody wants to work anymore
Comment from : @dustindavid1580

Mike Rowe for US Secretary of Labor
Comment from : @Wayinsworld

Similar to another comment; Mr Rowe is an inspired speaker! I'd have to take a class to be able to speak on a subject, at length, the way he does! This was a great job, and it wasn't even dirty!
Comment from : @lawrenceklein3524

I hope there was ice water in the bucket, to keep the nuts fresh for conversion to rocky mountain oysters to be consumed at suppertime

I’m not mad fewer plumbers out there more money I can make 😅😂
Comment from : @jonmcdougal9334

Holy Crap!!! (can't imagine doing THAT dirty job!) Mike Rowe is one of the most brilliant, yet highly underrated, intellects in our world today I have a great deal of respect for this man
Comment from : @Patricia-413

Bloody fking brilliant And so true! Always been a fam of MR and Dirty Jobs but now I'm in awe!
Comment from : @jemakrol

I worked on a factory trawler in the Bering sea I loved my time there! I remember it fondly My life is better because of the things I did, and the people I worked with We didn't even know what OSHA was We knew what the ocean was We loved and respected the ocean When people say now that I'm lucky because of the life I live I smile I'm not lucky I learned how to work hard I love this guy!
Comment from : @timmyg2548

What theee?????
Comment from : @zsozso411

It's sad that brutality is expedient
Comment from : @nohandle62

Give me a break, the guy that does a TV show about manual labor and does actual work for maybe 20 minutes per episode is going to lecture us on hard work? He's a TV personality, not a laborer He's the last person that should be educating anybody on the value of hard work He's a charlatan A fraud A phony
Comment from : @stanley1554

Mike Rowe speaks the truth

so does mike have a nut allergy?
Comment from : @thatoneguy6776

I am a 61 year old “ hands on“ carpenter/general contractor We are kitchen installers for several local lumberyards as well as installers for two major box stores I talk about this mentality all the time The disconnect that is so present between what I called the “clickety clickers” typing on their keyboards thanking what they do it’s so much more meaningful and deserving of A higher wage than those of us that are out working with splinters in our hands every day! I’m not saying that they do not play an role in this process We do need good planning, but the attitude towards the laymen and the lack of respect for what we do, I feel, is exactly what Mike Rowe is just trying to make us aware of My son who has a bachelors degree is working with me and has been for 10 years Of course, his massive college loan that is still looming, has not only set him back, but he feels presently was a grave mistake in perusing There is a longer story to that, but hopefully my point has been made I just want to reiterate what MIke has expressed in his message Thank you for exposing this and encouraging young men and women to pursue the trades and not feel that it is a path for flunkies that couldn’t cut it pursuing college degrees!

I don't follow OSHA regulations as using them will cause you injury as the safety regulations will cause you injury

I'll never f orget that Best thing I ever didbrfirst owned, building I ever builta 4 plexI knew NOTHING , framed it from a book laying on the slabhad the time of my life best to you mike
Comment from : @carlbob9487

Ive always thought this guy had a great presentation The infrastructure is collapsing because no one wants to spend 20 years scraping by to potentially retire comfortably Hard truth I realize this an old video but the ripples of those bills are hitting shore Tradesman cannot afford it unless they have already spent most their lifetime accumulating the "living workshop" that is the mastery of a trade and heaven forbid you arent a generational tradesman and decide to do it because it looks like something enjoyable and efficient The toll is too stiff to justify what is on the other side of the career path of tradesman Its broken and now theres no one left that wants to fix it
Comment from : @davidkennedy4213

What a douche
Comment from : @sanctuaryinc22

I can only imagine how proud Mike's parents are and how proud their children are of them This may be the 3rd time I saw Mike Rowe or his name while scrolling I do know it's the FIRST time I actually listened to him talk I was a little in awe and BIG in agreement, but put his mom's contact information on my to do list We may feel at a certain age it's too late for us to realize a goal that was put on hold, or even forgotten I only heard a few words of an interview he was doing with her, but their similarities were evident Good people enjoying themselves, sharing their experiences and educating with laughter
Comment from : @pd9605

Brilliant, I have a lot respect for you

Comment from : @leerod3114

I think I have done most of his "Dirty Jobs"!
Comment from : @dwaynebeasley1030

I've always said that anyone that says "that's not my job" or "I'm above that" doesn't deserve to have any work at all(yet for some reason those ones are always the ones that get the promotions etc >>)

Re: crab boats, never been on a Navy destroyer
Comment from : @peregrine63701

I have a lot of respect for Mr Rowe A lot of our work has become increasingly meaningless because money has become the yardstick for everything Job satisfaction, work ethics, doing the right thing always seem to stand in the way of the next promotion I worked the overwhelming majority of my career, 50 years, in middle and upper management making a very good salary But my "good" work dreams are those of the five years I was in the construction industry, driving trucks, cutting steel, hard manual labor My "bad" work dreams are of the office, wandering around with faceless people trying to find my office but unable to because of the never-ending restructuring, downsizing, and job changes du jour My last job paid me very well for someone who did little outside of reading emails and attending pointless meetings all day For too many of us, working in America has lost it balance I hope we've learned that going into debt for just any college degree is not the solution for a happy and long career Maybe we can also find, or rediscover, another motivator simply besides the pursuit of wealth

I have less brain cells after watching this Jesus
Comment from : @SchamaliDhali

amazing
Comment from : @DebateThis

Still relevant⚠️
Comment from : @armandosimental6435

Great lecture about the value of job, any job There are things to be done to get the society going, and no job is really dirty if a person is not forced into it brHis conservative bias was also shown ridiculing Hilary talking to steel workers but I guess trump’s idiotic image to consider himself at home with the working men and women is okay with him as if trump has any fucking idea how a carpet layer feels at the end of the day
