Pearl - Modern Women Will Literally Have The EASIEST JOB EVER and STILL COMPLAIN

00:00:00.000 I get to come here and talk to you guys.

00:00:01.700 This is the, I mean, I don't mean to brag, you know, but this is great.

00:00:05.860 What up guys?

00:00:06.660 Welcome to my reaction series.

00:00:08.160 So as you guys know, I love making fun of my own kind, influencers.

00:00:12.440 As you guys know, in a previous video, I did the hierarchy of hard jobs.

00:00:17.400 A hierarchy of hard jobs.

00:00:20.500 So at the top, so this is going to be the hardest.

00:00:25.320 This is going to be the least hard.

00:00:26.920 Because, you know, the ladies always say they work so hard. 1.00

00:00:30.600 Let's ask ourself, who's doing what?

00:00:33.440 Who, is it working?

00:00:34.960 Yeah, okay.

00:00:35.520 Who is doing what in these industries?

00:00:37.660 So at the top, these are the jobs that if you mess up, the result is your death, somebody else's death.

00:00:50.520 Yeah, it's basically your death or somebody else's death.

00:00:54.320 So we got logging, which is the number one cause of workplace death in the United States.

00:01:01.600 Number two, crab fishermen, which we're going to talk about a little more later.

00:01:06.340 Surgeons.

00:01:06.820 If you're a heart surgeon, that's pretty intense.

00:01:09.800 You know, because it's one thing to work hard.

00:01:13.280 But it's another thing to work hard with an intense amount of pressure.

00:01:16.920 Where if you mess up, if you're human, you know, if I say the wrong thing at work tomorrow, I can issue a retraction.

00:01:25.620 If these guys do the wrong thing at work, they're done.

00:01:28.720 They're cooked.

00:01:29.440 The surgeon could get sued.

00:01:30.860 The surgeon could lose his license.

00:01:33.880 All for being human, for making a mistake.

00:01:37.700 The crab fishermen, you know, there's boats in Alaska where there are men that don't come back.

00:01:47.780 They risk their lives to get us crabs.

00:01:51.260 So, again, when I hear podcasters saying that their job is so hard, I think, how dare you?

00:01:59.640 You know, you know, how dare you take for granted the amazing job that we have?

00:02:08.040 How dare you for a second say that this is too difficult?

00:02:12.480 Now, next, we got the plumbers, the linemen, and the doctors.

00:02:18.580 Now, these are the jobs that the result of these jobs means thousands of people could be affected.

00:02:27.840 So, if a plumber does the wrong thing, like, let's see he's the plumber on a city contracting job, the whole city could be mad at him.

00:02:38.300 Imagine, imagine being that guy where you mess up and the whole entire crew is mad at you.

00:02:46.820 That is a lot of pressure.

00:02:48.100 You know that because of your actions, the city lost its water, its power, whatever.

00:02:54.800 So, again, when I hear streamers and podcasters saying they have a hard job, again, I think, how dare you?

00:03:02.260 These guys have hard jobs.

00:03:06.220 Next, we have the jobs where the result of your job is to protect the public.

00:03:12.580 It can be dangerous, but they're not necessarily fearing their life every day by signing up.

00:03:20.900 And you also could be legally liable for mistakes.

00:03:24.040 So, again, police officers, it varies.

00:03:27.260 Now, I've done none of these jobs, I'd like to say.

00:03:29.400 So, you guys, if you have a disagreement on where it should go in the hierarchy, you're totally welcome to put it in the comments.

00:03:36.220 Maybe one goes higher than the other.

00:03:38.260 This was what I came up with.

00:03:39.500 But police officers, if they make the wrong decision, they could be thrown in jail.

00:03:48.720 Firemen, if they make the wrong choice, they could die in a burning building.

00:03:55.440 Paramedics.

00:03:58.220 Next, we have a job that is not necessarily dangerous, although it can be, but it's necessary to keep society going.

00:04:10.440 This is garbage men, bricklayers, construction, and mailmen.

00:04:15.160 Now, I know some construction is very difficult. 0.93

00:04:19.120 But, you know, if you're pouring concrete or something like that.

00:04:23.660 Next, we're going to be, the job is boring, and if you make a mistake, it would ruin your day.

00:04:34.020 But nobody's going to die, right?

00:04:35.760 It's a pretty boring job.

00:04:36.980 You might be on your feet all day.

00:04:38.200 So I put cashier, babysitter, assistant, sales, hairstylist.

00:04:46.980 And last is the job that's actually fun.

00:04:51.980 You can be passionate about it, and it's low risk.

00:04:55.200 Now, these jobs are the most competitive because everybody wants them.

00:04:59.720 You know, if you follow the rules to be a plumber, most guys can do it.

00:05:05.660 But there's very few successful musicians, comedians, OnlyFans models that actually make money.

00:05:14.860 But the barrier to entry is nothing for these.

00:05:17.720 I mean, anyone can really do it.

00:05:22.080 So imagine when you're down here on the hierarchy of hard jobs.

00:05:28.740 Like, imagine a crab fisherman hearing you complain about how hard you are down here.

00:05:35.260 It's like the audacity.

00:05:36.240 And, you know, there is feedback saying that, okay, well, it takes a lot of mental energy, and you have to be smart.

00:05:47.120 Okay, sure.

00:05:49.320 But even if we did white collar, we divided it between white collar and blue collar.

00:05:56.440 It's way more difficult to be a lawyer, a surgeon.

00:06:00.180 You have to go through school.

00:06:02.760 Managing a hedge fund on Wall Street.

00:06:04.720 Like, let's not pretend journalists are, you know.

00:06:08.900 So when I hear streamers, podcasters complain, I just can't take it.

00:06:16.620 I can't do it.

00:06:18.820 That's why, you know, I didn't think it needed.

00:06:21.420 I thought she would say, oh, I agree.

00:06:23.220 I agree, Pearl.

00:06:23.960 You're right.

00:06:24.520 We shouldn't complain.

00:06:25.800 I just said it off the cuff.

00:06:27.160 No. 0.99

00:06:28.500 I gotta, I gotta, you hate women. 1.00

00:06:30.280 Can we just talk about how hard it is to film content?

00:06:35.120 I am trying to keep up with posting my content two times a day, but I always try to post at least once.

00:06:45.140 And sometimes it's kind of just like post whatever comes to my mind first.

00:06:48.820 So maybe it's doing my workout in the morning or doing my makeup or going out to get coffee or posting my tips and tricks like I always do.

00:06:58.600 So white women, you know, we've talked about black fatigue and I think that's a real thing. 0.66

00:07:04.220 But I do have white women fatigue because I think we're the most spoiled group because a lot of us have daddy's money, right? 1.00

00:07:09.980 And so we don't really know what it's like to work for real, for real.

00:07:13.520 And then we get married to like white guys that make, you know, they make good money usually. 0.57

00:07:17.100 So again, we don't know what it's like to work for real.

00:07:20.240 So we think like getting coffee is hard.

00:07:22.000 She's complaining about making two TikTok videos a day.

00:07:25.620 These are 60 second.

00:07:28.280 It can be even as short as 10 second videos up to like two minutes.

00:07:32.460 Really?

00:07:32.940 That's hard.

00:07:33.460 But I always try to post at least once a day and posting is just so hard.

00:07:40.860 Like filming is hard and so many people make it look easy on this app and their editing is great.

00:07:48.820 And I'm telling you, I have been doing this now for five months and yes, my filming, editing has gotten better, but it's still hard.

00:07:57.040 And I still get so frustrated and sometimes I just want to give up and delete all the clips, delete all the editing and remove it from my drafts immediately.

00:08:06.860 It is hard to film.

00:08:09.180 Just your classic white woman. 1.00

00:08:10.520 Okay.

00:08:10.720 Who's another white woman? 1.00

00:08:13.680 Only white women are going to be complaining about TikTok being a hard job because the black women, they've done actual hard jobs. 1.00

00:08:21.100 They didn't grow up with money. 0.99

00:08:22.160 They're from like the hood.

00:08:23.880 So, you know, they've been, they've worked at McDonald's.

00:08:26.620 They've worked at Taco Bell.

00:08:28.500 White women worked at Ulta. 0.58

00:08:30.480 You know, we don't really know difficult jobs like that.

00:08:33.460 We weren't, we're not farmers anymore.

00:08:35.040 We're baristas.

00:08:36.340 So black women have, you know, they've dealt with the bottom feeders. 1.00

00:08:41.280 You could say a society working some of these jobs, you know, they're at the DMV.

00:08:46.260 Do you know the type of people you'd have to deal with to work at the DMV?

00:08:49.840 White women are, we're spoiled. 1.00

00:08:51.860 We don't know.

00:08:52.300 We have no idea what it's like to work a hard job.

00:08:55.120 Please don't hate me for saying this.

00:08:57.100 I know nobody wants to hear about how hard it is to be an influencer, but if you're a creator that's new to this space, I want you to know that you are not alone in struggling with these things.

00:09:05.640 My name is Emily Valentine.

00:09:06.840 I've been an influencer and talent manager in the influencer space for seven plus years now.

00:09:10.300 And these are the hardest things about being an influencer.

00:09:13.660 Number one is going to be doing it all by yourself.

00:09:16.400 When you're working on your own as an influencer, you actually forego a lot of the well-being and emotional perks.

00:09:22.080 See, men would look at that as a plus.

00:09:24.560 They would say, I don't have to work with other people.

00:09:26.260 This is amazing.

00:09:27.520 I don't have to work with women. 1.00

00:09:29.220 Oh, yeah.

00:09:30.040 Thank God.

00:09:31.360 But women, it's like we have the best thing where we don't have to work with a bunch of people. 1.00

00:09:35.480 It's kind of like group projects in school.

00:09:37.380 I'd rather just do it myself.

00:09:38.600 Um, and yet we still find a way to complain.

00:09:43.460 Get when you work in an office with real life colleagues.

00:09:46.180 Be like, this can feel so lonely at times.

00:09:48.360 I've definitely felt this over the years when I don't have anyone to like bounce ideas off and like kind of get accountability from.

00:09:54.220 I often feel like.

00:09:55.280 Translation, I want to steal other people's work.

00:09:57.960 And I can't motivate myself.

00:09:59.380 I'm second guessing myself when I'm making huge decisions or even small ones in my business.

00:10:04.080 It also means that like celebrating big milestones or big career wins are pretty much non-existent.

00:10:09.320 I honestly try and remind myself to celebrate the wins all the way through my career.

00:10:12.780 But it's so hard to do when you don't have a boss to remind you to do so.

00:10:15.360 Or a team to pick up the slack when you want to take time off to celebrate.

00:10:19.040 So having little to no privacy when you're an influencer is something that I know lots of influencers struggle with.

00:10:24.560 When I first started out as like a beauty blogger, all of my content was mainly like reviews or tutorials.

00:10:28.820 But as my following grew and my following became more interested in me as a person, the lifestyle I was living, where I was going, what I was eating, where I was traveling to, the more questions I got on.

00:10:39.680 So she's complaining about having no privacy, even though that's a choice.

00:10:44.860 That is a choice.

00:10:45.840 You don't have to share everything.

00:10:47.080 That's the women. 1.00

00:10:47.740 We think there's like a gun to our head and we have to post our kids on the Internet.

00:10:51.280 We have to tell them everything.

00:10:52.680 It's like, no.

00:10:54.480 Who I was hanging out with, who I was dating.

00:10:56.200 I wanted my opinion on all manner of things.

00:10:59.000 Think of it like this.

00:11:00.040 You open a small, tiny window into your life for a small, tiny group of people.

00:11:03.680 And then that group of people grows.

00:11:05.560 Therefore, the window grows.

00:11:06.800 And therefore, the access to you has to grow.

00:11:09.860 Honestly, sometimes it can feel like followers feel like they have access to you 24-7.

00:11:15.160 And it's really important that you as the influencer put down those boundaries.

00:11:18.420 Obviously, as an influencer, I know that this can be really hard, especially when you want to always be there for your audience and continually serve them.

00:11:24.980 So this is probably the thing I struggle with the most when it comes to being an influencer.

00:11:29.960 Most jobs are behind the scenes.

00:11:31.420 There's no camera.

00:11:32.160 There's no audience.

00:11:32.860 And there's no stage that you do like your daily work on.

00:11:35.740 You report to like a small group of people.

00:11:37.460 And feedback comes direct to you from a small group of clients or managers.

00:11:41.220 So my platforms, I'd be switched on for.

00:11:42.980 All right.

00:11:44.540 Approximately now.

00:11:45.060 You know that it's just being on 24-7.

00:11:48.500 She's like, oh, I don't get time off.

00:11:50.040 I'm like, when are we on?

00:11:51.920 I get to come here and talk to you guys.

00:11:53.820 This is the best.

00:11:54.420 I mean, I don't mean to brag, you know, but this is great.

00:11:59.660 Somebody cares about a woman's opinion. 1.00

00:12:02.280 Oh, I want that job.

00:12:05.580 Me time.

00:12:06.540 Okay.

00:12:07.000 All right.

00:12:07.240 Let's go to this next guy.

00:12:08.420 He said content creation as a career is hard.

00:12:10.540 Tell that to the coal miners. 1.00

00:12:11.900 You know, it's just the equivalent.

00:12:13.600 Right.

00:12:14.040 And I get a little frustrated when I see this stuff, because as a YouTuber, you just, that

00:12:19.600 should never be in your vocabulary ever, ever.

00:12:25.060 Because again, there are men that do, you know, let's just go here.

00:12:34.820 This seems a little bit more hard to me.

00:12:37.080 I don't know.

00:12:39.060 Oh no, I'm on.

00:12:40.260 I have to be on 24-7.

00:12:41.800 I don't get off.

00:12:44.380 I mean, this guy could die if the log goes the wrong way.

00:12:47.780 You know, it's just, but now we're going to, we're going to hear this, this little Chad

00:12:51.980 here. 0.96

00:12:52.320 Being a content creator is really fucking hard. 0.97

00:12:55.120 Now, listen, before you start jumping down my throat, I'm not saying it's as hard as being 0.98

00:12:59.140 a blue collar worker or being a single mom of three kids trying to support all them.

00:13:03.340 I'm not saying that.

00:13:04.620 It's just.

00:13:04.920 Oh, I put us at the bottom of the hierarchy of hard jobs.

00:13:07.220 At the bottom, the top.

00:13:12.020 Jobs where you have the pressure that you could kill yourself and other people and you

00:13:16.440 have to have a high IQ.

00:13:17.600 Like a surgeon, it's probably harder.

00:13:21.820 Anyways.

00:13:22.600 Hard in its own way.

00:13:23.380 Because if you're a content creator and you're not feeling motivated or creative, you're 1.00

00:13:27.420 fucked. 0.99

00:13:27.800 Your monthly income directly relies on how motivated you are, how creative you are. 0.99

00:13:34.160 And other people's monthly income relies on if they don't kill anybody.

00:13:38.500 You know what I mean?

00:13:39.100 It's like, I don't know.

00:13:40.880 The surgeon has to go into work and not kill people.

00:13:44.240 Creative you are and what grace you're in with the algorithm gods.

00:13:47.920 I have 250,000 followers on this account and I've posted like four or five times in

00:13:53.500 the past month.

00:13:54.360 One, because I'm just printing views on my other account, which is fine.

00:13:56.940 But two, I just don't feel inspired.

00:13:59.640 Like I just spent the last year of my life building the best software for content creation

00:14:03.960 and I haven't posted because I'm just feeling so uninspired and not creative.

00:14:09.060 There's just a direct correlation between the amount of work that you put in and the amount

00:14:12.880 you get from it. 0.99

00:14:13.720 Whereas other jobs, you can show up and fuck off for a day and you're still going to get 1.00

00:14:17.600 paid. 1.00

00:14:17.980 Now, listen, I live a fantastic life.

00:14:20.060 I golf multiple times a week during the middle of the day.

00:14:22.060 Oh my God.

00:14:22.660 Now you're going to brag. 0.99

00:14:25.080 Like I do whatever the fuck I want, but I'm just saying it's hard in its own way. 0.98

00:14:29.660 And I really think there's something to be said for all the people out there. 1.00

00:14:32.460 Please shut up. 0.99

00:14:33.540 Please just never talk again. 0.99

00:14:35.720 Please God.

00:14:36.640 Never.

00:14:37.040 Just finished working.

00:14:38.640 It's 519.

00:14:41.600 Try being an influencer for a day.

00:14:43.660 Try it.

00:14:44.400 Because the people who say it's easy are so far out of their minds.

00:14:48.200 Try it for a day.

00:14:50.340 It is not for everybody.

00:14:53.380 I am surprised she's still literally just I'm surprised she's still on the Internet after

00:14:57.960 that.

00:14:59.020 Oh my God.

00:14:59.980 This is why we have such a bad reputation.

00:15:01.880 I hate us, too.

00:15:02.760 I can't even blame you.

00:15:04.180 Becoming a full time influencer.

00:15:05.340 I found that the biggest downside that a lot of people didn't warn me about was the

00:15:08.560 toll it would take on my mental health.

00:15:10.240 For those who don't know me, my name is Bran.

00:15:11.500 I worked in the corporate industry for five years and then I started.

00:15:13.780 I would say that that is the only valid thing you could say that the mental health.

00:15:18.900 But, you know, there's men losing limbs at work, you know.

00:15:22.640 Okay.

00:15:23.040 We hear mean comments.

00:15:24.400 We just got to get over it.

00:15:25.420 If this is the industry you want to go into doing TikTok for fun on the side until I ended

00:15:29.440 up taking off and now I've been a full time influencer and creator on this app for the

00:15:33.000 past year and a half.

00:15:34.080 Being an influencer is not hard.

00:15:35.640 I worked in the retail industry.

00:15:37.220 I worked a corporate job.

00:15:38.200 I never want to seem out of touch.

00:15:39.560 But what I have found more difficult about this job than I have in any other job is the

00:15:43.440 toll it has taken on my mental health.

00:15:44.860 When you create a career based off posting off the Internet, you create an identity that

00:15:48.520 is reliant on people's.

00:15:49.600 The problem is a lot of people become slaves to their audience and they can't say anything

00:15:55.100 that upsets their audience because that's their boss in a way.

00:15:59.160 And if you get a crazy audience.

00:16:01.240 Perceptions of you and parasocial relationships with you.

00:16:03.540 They talked about this on the canceled podcast.

00:16:05.440 There is this dichotomy of the relationship you have with your haters.

00:16:08.560 The people who judge you off 15 seconds and say something rude is the same relationship

00:16:13.400 you have with the people who love you that think that they know you think that they can

00:16:16.540 relate to you.

00:16:17.160 But deep down, they really still do not know you.

00:16:19.840 And that is the strangest phenomenon that I couldn't fully understand until I was actually

00:16:23.880 a full time influencer doing this every single day.

00:16:26.700 And your career hinges on how you.

00:16:28.260 It is weird when you like because you kind of get I will.

00:16:31.400 This is the only one I think it's a little valid not saying that like it's a weird dynamic

00:16:37.100 because you'll meet people and they'll have you on a pedestal.

00:16:39.400 And I'm like, I can't live up to that.

00:16:40.720 I'm terrible.

00:16:41.900 I'm terrible.

00:16:42.880 No, no, no.

00:16:43.320 Take me off.

00:16:44.340 I'm like, look, I'm not I could be a better person.

00:16:50.160 You know, let me just.

00:16:53.280 You know, or you'll get people that are like, how could you say those things?

00:16:56.900 And I'm like, well.

00:16:59.640 Because I meant them, you know, you are being perceived online.

00:17:03.280 It opens the floodgates for imposter syndrome and for better or for worse, they could be

00:17:07.540 or the weirdest thing is when you don't know if someone's pissed because, you know, I've

00:17:11.880 been in situations where people I know, I know they're not going to like something I

00:17:14.720 said online and I'm like, please don't show up with an attitude today.

00:17:18.440 I don't need this saying really nice things about you online.

00:17:21.000 And then you have an overinflated ego thinking you're amazing.

00:17:23.460 And then they could be saying horrible things about you that aren't even true. 0.78

00:17:26.400 And you could feel like crap about yourself for weeks on end.

00:17:29.120 Another thing people don't talk about is the dopamine rush and how addictive this is.

00:17:32.820 There is a dopamine effect when you get a viral video, you see those numbers go up.

00:17:36.800 It's like, oh my gosh, I have to keep posting.

00:17:38.660 There's just rush of excitement.

00:17:40.100 It's like, how viral is it going to go?

00:17:41.740 How many followers am I going to get?

00:17:43.020 Am I going to get a brand partnership from this?

00:17:44.780 Is someone famous going to comment on it?

00:17:46.380 And then you post something that you think is going to go bonkers, get like millions of

00:17:50.240 views and it doesn't perform the way you want it to.

00:17:52.380 It flops.

00:17:53.320 The imposter syndrome comes back in. 0.96

00:17:54.900 Am I not funny anymore?

00:17:56.020 Does everyone hate me now?

00:17:57.460 Those are feelings that I never had in my nine to five job.

00:18:00.240 Like when I left work, I left work.

00:18:01.980 Which brings me to my next point.

00:18:03.600 This is a 24 seven job because in today's day and age, in order to.

00:18:07.860 Okay, that's enough.

00:18:08.900 That's enough from the influencers.

00:18:10.980 Okay.

00:18:11.340 As you guys know, I don't think influencers, I would recommend, I don't want to say should,

00:18:16.360 you can do what you want.

00:18:17.200 I don't recommend talking about this ever because we are very privileged in a way, elitist

00:18:21.360 class in society.

00:18:22.400 And this is the best job in the world.

00:18:23.740 I thank you guys every day that I can do this because I really don't know what I would do

00:18:28.360 if I wasn't a YouTuber.

00:18:29.580 I love it here.

00:18:30.780 But we are very privileged.

00:18:32.820 It does not hold a penny to the people working nine to fives or, you know, jobs every single

00:18:39.920 day.

00:18:40.440 So anyways, like the video, subscribe to the channel, and I'll see you guys next time.

00:18:44.480 Thank you.
