What’s a NEET?

madnessitellyou · 06/11/2025 19:48

Not in education or training. In other words a school leaver who does absolutely nothing.

My brother was one before the internet. Books existed.

Of course not. Ridiculous.

OP wasn’t saying there’d be none though.

Yeah because in the early 80s when there was mass youth unemployment it was completely the fault of the internet.
