Lavoro Gratis: perché Jovanotti ha ragione


Look, I do not know Jovanotti. Lorenzo, do we know each other? No.
But I think he is a very intelligent person. I saw some interviews, where in the way
quiet expresses his opinions, interesting. I read a very nice book that he wrote
with Franco Bolelli, whom I know quite well “Long live”, excellent book, full
of ideas. He is certainly a smart person, who
he has a brain, a reasoner, regardless of the music he does, which he can like
or less, or from the character, who can like it or not.
And then, when controversy emerges like the one that came out these days for a sentence
What did the first thing I do in college say at the university? I’m going to see the video
of his intervention. How many of you have seen the full video?
On the hand. Okay. This is the problem that people talk, comment, criticize, but not
he goes to see, he does not elaborate on the sources. It is clearly based on the headlines,
but do you know how it works? I do this job.
Online you need to make pages viewed, you need to sell advertising, you need to do
“Link baiting,” you need the titolone to attract traffic, so you sell advertising,
the newspapers are happier and the journalists earn those three lirettes.
But the truth is that Jovanotti, if you look at the video, has not said at all what
the newspapers said. Jovanotti said something very simple. Strasacrosanta. When
you’re a shaven, if you go to work for free to get experience is just a good thing.
And it is obvious that it is so. Let’s take an example. Imagine you want to become a player
basketball and you have the chance to go to work with Michael Jordan – King Michael
– who says: “Look, you come with me for six months, do an internship, I pay you 0, I’ll do it
a bunch like that and then for the rest I do not even know, we’ll probably discard you at the end of six
months “. What do you do? Then who criticized
Jovanotti would say: “Oh no Michael, I want here my contract, contributions, certainty
of the fixed position at the end of the six months in the NBA … “But fuck you!
Of course, the first thing you need to do is get up your ass, get on and go get yourself a bunch like that
for six months with Michael Jordan and I guarantee you that if you learn best from Michael Jordan
probably then become the next Kobe Bryant, you will not even have the problem anymore
some money for your whole life, what the heck! And then it is clear that it is a criticism without
sense, because the world of work has changed, the whole concept of work today goes completely
reinvented. What tells politics, newspapers in Italy … no longer exists, not
there’s more. What is there is that there is a 40% youth unemployment, this
there is, this is a given. But if one thinks of solving it by applying the
logics of the past, of the fixed place, of the send the curriculum then answer me, of the
I do an internship and then all my life I’m in a company … it does not exist anymore. This exists
only in the Wonderland. What we know today is that within
Twenty years 80% of the work will be replaced by machines, artificial intelligence …
80% of the work of yours, mine, everyone. And one must think about what to do.
What we know is that security no longer exists for anyone, there is not even
for an entrepreneur. It’s not like I get up in the morning and get there
Mr. work, which says: “Hello I am the Work” – “Ah, hello, here we are, come in, please
come in”. No! You are on the battlefield, every day you have to invent something. Not
there is security. The greatest insecurity is precisely the search for security. IS
this fake security. There is no one who guarantees that things will be fine.
Nobody. The only thing you can do is try to become an entrepreneur of yourself.
Whether you’re an entrepreneur or you want to work for someone else. And what
is it the key then? I do not know friends, I have no magical answers. I do not have a crystal ball.
Ideally the advice is very simple. Create a job, do not go looking for a
work. Create a job. Complaining is not a strategy. If Eminem
he had complained he would not have become Eminem. If Manny Pacquiao, the boxer, who was born
in the middle of the street, he had been there to complain he did not become one of the greatest boxers of the
history. Complaining about the government, contracts, Jovanotti, the crisis … not complain
it’s a strategy. But if your way is not to create yourself
a job but looking for a job, then the simplest advice is this. The work
you do not search. The work attracts. Work is attracted by becoming the most competent person,
more capable, able to add more value than anyone else. And at that point
work magically appears. Here is a single gentleman who takes you out
from the situation you are in, if you are looking for a job and can not find it. That gentleman is you.
And if you do not believe me, if you think I shot crap for three minutes no problem, go on
so, continue to complain, continue to criticize, continue to think that your job is up to you
in law, for your beautiful face. But the truth is that if you do not have a plan for you
yourself and think that others have prepared it for you, you will realize that the
plan that you have reserved, at best … it’s just a fucking plan.
