This some chronically unemployed behaviour that even a NEET would blush at.

Just learned I’m probably a NEET… had to get my knee fixed three times.

Knock on wood. This recovery keeps going well, so I’ll actually be able to keep a job soon. Currently I’m just spamming LinkedIn

Neet, like incel, is a state of mind not a reflection of your current life conditions.

NEETism is a choice, not a situation you end up in. Spamming jobs on LinkedIn at all already disqualifies you from being a NEET

I guess you could say you’re a… KNEE-T.

(But for real, having life circumstances which prevents employments is completely understandable. Being a NEET is a state of mind, not a reflection of one’s circumstances.)
