[Expat]

Time for breakfast.

 

[MrsGungho]

I hate seeing the news from last night.

Speedway gas station clerk shot in cold blood. Not even a robbery from what I am reading, an argument or discussion over nachos and would be punk went back out to get the gun and shoot clerk.

so sad and scary

 

[Birds Away]

One of them yesterday had the nerve to say we shouldn't be working for the money, we should be working for the pride in the job.

 

[churchmouse]

It is freaking silly chilly this morning

Ask them if pride pays their bills....

 

[Birds Away]

Yeah, tell that to my guy that had unexpected car repairs so I had to give him money to eat the rest of the week. Now that's pride.

 

[Birds Away]

Bunch of freaking condescending asshats.

 

[Birds Away]

They will be here through Thursday. I hope I still have a job by then.

Man I would struggle with that statement.

see my above response.

It's true if you make a living wage. It becomes less true when you are scrambling to keep the bill collectors at bay.

I'd be job hunting. . .if not searching for a bondsman.

Being so fiscally responsible I have been doing that all my life.....

 

[Birds Away]

It's the difference between a career and a job, IMO. The folks who work for me are the very definition of the "working poor".

I think it was very insulting for the folks who were there and I'm sure the word has gotten around.

Those Poo stains do not care. The less you are paid the more they can pocket.

you're absolutely right

I have one employee that is always asking myself or the manager to buy him a pack of cigarettes in the week before payday, he just doesn't have it. I'd hate to think how bad off he'd be if he didn't live at home.

I also know if I didn't have someone else to help pay bills, I would be begging for help.

Not making a living wage is so common anymore. Those folks who are visiting you could do with a big dose of reality

We all know that but, they don't have to rub it in.
