You have to get up out of a chair and MOVE around (sweep, clean windows, shovel snow, rake leaves, etc.) to do THAT!

I need some help with that sort of thing and you’d think I asked for blood when I ask a neighborhood kid to come over and do some actual WORK, for pay.

They look at me like I’m speaking another language... ‘work’ What is that?

...last year I had an issue with my feet (still do) which made it difficult for me to mow my sizeable lawn without great discomfort...I finally got hold of a kid willing to do it...he did a good job, right up until the last five minutes of his last day, when he ran the mower over a pipe in the lawn...point being, kids used to fight each other to find such work, and I had to report to my father how much money I made each week mowing lawns in the summer and shoveling, when snowfalls would cancel school...not so much anymore, I guess...

True, we get to hear how we need illegal aliens to do jobs Americans won’t do How about the US say if you want to get some free shit, you have to do something that needs done to pull your weight? Geesh, how about some of these welfare schlubs do that work for a living?

Why are they allowed to sit on their butts and suck off people who get up every day and go out and work?
