"...They damn sure do owe you something for the sacrifice you are willing to make for them..."

Sacrifice? You are kidding, right? Sacrifice? Wow. Try not having a job and having mouths to feed.

You find yourself in that position, where you don't have money to pay a mortgage, put a roof over your head and food on your table, then you realize it isn't a SACRIFICE to work, it is a damned PRIVILEGE.

It is a PRIVILEGE, not a RIGHT to work. And you, like a large number of people in this country, take that completely and utterly for granted. There was a time when people came to this country to work hard, and they viewed it as a gift from GOD that they could work for enough money to make a living. They didn't view it as a RIGHT, as you do, along with FDR liberal soulmates who shared his utopian liberal mindset.

Just amazing. It is a mindset like YOURS that has put our industry in the place it is today: The crapper.

“the sacrifice you are willing to make for them”

I agree with you,the employer “sacrifices” his capital on a venture that can enable someone to have a job, if successful, but in this case, our (friend) is saying the employee is doing the “sacrificing”?

Wow, we are upside down as a nation.

(Legal Irish) Immigrants (like my ancestors) came here to work hard, gain ground,to someday hope to be that “employer”. I am saddened by people who do not understand America and capitalism.

By the way, being an employee of a pizza parlor/delivery chain is a “gateway” job, unless you strive to manage one. It was never intended to be a career path, to deliver them.
It is a job for high school/college kids to make a few bucks for extra spending money on their way to a real career. Just thought I'd trow that out there.
