No jobs? Or no work ethic?


For there not being any jobs, I’m sure seeing a lot of help wanted signs around.  Granted some of these jobs may not be very good paying jobs, or they may be only part-time; however, some pay check, is better than no paycheck.  Moreover, it’s common nowadays for an employee to start off as part-time, get test driven, and then get picked up full-time.  Coming from somebody who has worked 3 part-time jobs in addition to a full time job, I feel little sympathy for those sitting around waiting for a giant check with balloons to come to their house; it’s not going to happen…

I just think a good percentage of Americans have lost the will to do what they have to do (working multiple jobs etc.) and would rather accept a hand out, rather than a hand up.   People need to take a good look in the mirror, and be realistic about what they are worth.  NEWS FLASH, you’re not getting a job paying $25 an hour with no experience, and a HS Diploma.  You will need to start at the bottom, prove your worth to the company, and then you will make more money; that’s how it works. 

For all you jokers that claim disability, because you get headaches and anxiety, guess what?  I saw a one legged guy leaning on a crutch running a cash register, so tell me again about what you CAN’T do!
