but some of them were just out of school and working service jobs struggling to make rent.

Oh sure that also happens tons, ostensibly minimum wage is around 650eu/month but you know how these things are... Thank god for souvlaki and no one giving enough of a shit to enforce public transport fees, they're the only reason you can keep your expenses at 5 euros per day if you try lol.

Even more amusing because prior to the concept of greece as a kingdom or nation the people living there (within the former byzantine empire under the ottomans) were just considered (and considered themselves) romans.

Oh it's better than that because "romios" is an alternate name for Greek and "romiosyni" for Greek-ness and chuds use these words because they sound cool, while simultaneously downplaying the roman aspect.
