I would be willing to bet you have one of those really hard jobs; like creative consultant or contract administrator that require a high level of key board skills and the ability to use 30 dollar words where a simple yes or no would do.
Wrong again. I was a teacher.
I learned the key board because my mother has been a business teacher.
You sound like an over educated Santa Monica snob to me.
Just in case it never enters into your closed little world, the people who provide the goods and services you would find life very difficult without, are having a hard time of it out there.
If your brains were as big as the chip on your shoulder, you might have a chance.
Speaking of "closed little worlds" yours in a HUMdinger.
My husband and I also lived in Saudi Arabia for five years because of his engineering skills. He was SO smart, 10 times smarter than me. From over there we traveled the world. I am home now and a widow.
Seek the Lord to find your own peace. There is only peace through Him.
===========================
I am also a native Californian, been here for the last 65 years and I worked with those people every day. I heard about and had to work with the regulations they had to labor under; the taxes from workers comp to business licensing, hireing regulations to ridiculous law suits, permitting process's to corrupt officials. For the last 30 years at least, the state of California has made working people's lives as miserable as possible short of driving them all out. The ones who could leave have left and taken an awful lot of jobs and skills with them. California has become a well fare joke in all the more normal states. We never have enough money to fix the pot holes in the roads, but we always have the money for a clean needle program for drug addicts and condoms for K-12 kids? We always have money in the budget for free breakfast, lunch and supper for the illegal aliens in our taxpayer funded schools but not enough to repair and maintain bridges and infrastructure? We are currently paying some of the highest taxes in the world, so where is the money going? Whats wrong with the current government in Sacramento that they could take what used to be a state with an economy larger than a lot of entire countries and turn it into a net debtor third world sh#thole? When you elect idiot socialists and Stalinist’s and you have a newer population that is only interested in free stuff this is what you get.
Get a life and try not to hate others for having one.
What gets me is that both the rich and the poor are squeezing out the middle class. The poor want the freebies, and the rich are into all the social stuff like gay rights, antiwar, global warming.
My poor kids have to watch what they say about Christianity at their Chrstian school. It would be so much worse in public school. My son is loving going to college in Texas and my daughters can’t wait to leave California.
