Well yeah life is competitive…? exceedingly so for property within London it seems.

Even if millions of Londoners hate it that doesn’t change the fact that they are continuing to do so day after day… so something must still outweigh all the downsides combined.

So their care is very high, just focused on perhaps a very peculiar basket of things, so to speak. I can’t see any other explanation for such large scale behavior.

Right. I'll try one more time: this thread is about caring to do a good job. People move to London, try to do a good job, find that they'll never be properly rewarded for going the extra mile, give up, and do a shit job going forward.

They still feel better off than doing a shit job in the countryside, otherwise they'd move there. But the question we are discussing is: "Why don't people care about doing a good job?"

Yes someone could care very much about securing a job making all sorts of promises, and then start phoning it in after securing it.

I don’t see how one relates to the other, I wasn’t questioning the latter point? It’s undoubtedly the case for many.
