I am really annoyed right now with a friend of mine who turns down jobs because they dont pay enough. I can see that if you were looking for a better paying job, but as he doesn't have one in the first place and is living with his parents... not doing a whole lot with his life, I think less money and some work is better than no money and being a freeloader. And he has for some time. It is more dignifying to work at Mcdonalds and bring in a bit of income instead of sitting there and letting your mom spoon feed you applesauce.
This got me to thinking. People who are "educated" think that merits them a well-paying job, but have you seen some of the kids on college lately? You know the "copy and paste" generation? but I guess this IS what the world wants. Have you seen the office? Its funny because its true. There is so much work delegation that people can slack and talk SO MUCH. In the more manual labor type jobs, there is no time for that. These people work their butt off and get maybe half the pay their bosses do. And this because the boss does the paperwork. Well sip on your lemonade mista overseer! I'll come an rub your legs right after I'm through harvesting your crops and doing your laundry, and cooking your dinner.
I have a lot more respect for people who work hard every day to SURVIVE instead of those who sit back and "make decisions" (they dont even have to be good ones *cough* king arthur) to live luxurious lifestyles. Dear Lord, Law of consecration PLEASE. Its a little communist sounding but I'm really sick of rich pricks and lazy bums.
