You don’t know my ecucational or work background, chances are they’re as good as anyone’s on here. You don’t know how many of the last 13 years I’ve worked or how much. I’ll tell you though, it’s been nearly of all them full time.
Right now it’s not a matter of ‘skills’ or anything, we’ve been sold out by both government and the private sector. Do I feel I’m owed anything? At least the opportunity to suceed if you work at it. That’s supposed to be the American Dream, or is even hoping for a standard of living when you work for it considered ‘you think you’re so great’ now?
If so, get me out of this country and/or planet cause screw that.
You can be the hardest damn worker within 500 miles, and still get dropped like a bad habit...All this cock'nbull about cleaning boats, pulling weeds and cleaning store windows to survive, and "That's what they did during the depression" is just bull sh*t....
Ya just try that in today's America, when one or both wage earners lose their steady pay checks for 3 weeks in a row....You're done....Ya can't pay your insurance, car payments, credit card payments, rent, ya can't pay your mortgage, you sky high utilities go unpaid, repair bills, and all the other typical expenses go unpaid...After 6 weeks of loss of income, their unemployment check covers none of this...
And some of these people pop off by telling them to go mow lawns and clean boats? lol....
What they don't get is once that steady income is turned off, most private sector working people are done...Taking some job cleaning store windows 2 or 3 days a week will not pay their bills, and like unemployment, will still die a fast financial death.
They also completely forgot....The store they want to clean the windows at for a few bucks, has laid off half it's freaking staff, and they sure in hell have no money to give someone to clean their windows...
Whoops....They forgot about that!!
In today America, ya better have a steady income, otherwise, ya better have somewhere to live for free, or be prepared to live in your car, if it hasn't' been repossessed.
All this crap about people just partying and having a good ol time while collecting a fraction of their previous income, is for the most part, utter bullsh*t.
