It's not a meme, it's a forced unorganic joke

Because it's real "dad" advice. I'm not even joking. People that age will tell you this, as it worked for them back in the day.

Problem is, people that age haven't looked for a job since the 70's - 80's and that shit doesn't work anymore. Plus, the job market sucks nowadays, it has even less of an effect.

"Champ, you could either sit there and make excuses or man up and dig yourself out of this rut. It's as simple as showing up, speaking with the manager, looking him in the eye, and giving him a firm handshake. Four simple steps, Champ! I didn't raise a quitter."

"We've been over this before, Champ: Watching Chinese cartoons and subsisting on nachos and rejection doesn't count. Now, there's nothing about your attitude that a real hard day's work can't fix. It's as simple as showing up, speaking with the manager, looking him in the eye, and giving him a firm handshake."

"Champ, you could sit there and make excuses or man up and take the first step towards getting a job. All you need to do is show up, speak with the manager, look him in the eye, and give him a firm handshake."

It's not a meme, some guy tried to force it, a few nerds jumped on the bandwagon to feel cool and be the first to use the brand new meme, then it fizzles out and nobody remembers it. All within the timespan of a couple of days.
