Most of these jobs have a "professional" side but most of the people that are employed at these jobs aren't in it for the long haul. So any true professionals, I'm not talking to you. Also, if you are without much in financial means, this list doesn't apply to you. This list applies to the people who willingly go into these jobs while still living with their parents and/or roommates.
1. Waiter/waitress. Most people in their 30's that are still waiting tables tend to fall into three major "struggling" jobs: actor, singer, artist. These aren't even the people I'm talking about. I'm talking about the ones who have nothing else to do but wait tables while waiting for the "perfect" opportunity. Chances are, you're basically unemployed and waiting tables because you "don't care". Society hates you hipster.
2. Bartender. Bartending was a cool job in your 20's. You do it during university or to help during a difficult time. Now that you're in your 30's you're the equivalent of the creepy guy at the club. You're not old, but you're just too old to be there. It's not an embrace of your youth. It's not that other people don't get it. It's that you're a loser with no marketable skills.
3. Babysitter. Congratulations, you're doing the same job that can be done by pre-teen and teen girls. Except you're 3 times the age and it's creepy as fuck. The people that are paying you either don't care about their kids or feel sorry for you. Either way society is better off without you.
Now I'd like to reiterate that if you and your family are poor, these jobs are perfectly respectable. But the people I'm talking about in this are the millenials whose families aren't lacking money and they're doing this because "[they] can". Congratulations, you self-important prat, you're doing nothing with your life.
