You're friend spent 3 years as temp labor at a factory. He could have spent those evenings like ambitious people with goals who fully intend to provide a good life for their family by learning to code, studying online etc etc. He could have done a million things to better his own situation. Just the exact same as every young parent has since the dawn of time. He chose not to. He coasted. He coasted in a job where the very point was that he was expendable. Then he got let go which not planning for in 3 years as a temp hire is beyond irresponsible.
At what point are people themselves responsible for their station in life? Kanye West is not a genius. He's just a dickhead that worked hard and devoted every waking moment to improving at skills. Skills he continued to build on as a job and then as a career. That can be said of anyone, ever thats worked for success.
