i don't know maybe im still half asleep. but sometimes i think about how everywhere you turn it's companies or people trying to get money out of you or sell you something. do yall ever get tired of it? Like you go to a show or whatever and they try to sell you $10 beers. Then you go outside bums asking for money. Mofos trying to sell you cds trees jewelery whatever.
It's like a part of life is a game of having money in this country. i just see through shit and it gets old . Like everyone is so into the game they don't see the game. i need to smoke im thinking too much but im not gonna smoke til later.
this money revolves around greenbacks. and people will do whatever they can to get them, for the most part, not all people though.

we're bombarded with like 2000 ads per day.

You drive, see billboards, signs, posters, fliers, people....Everyone wants you to buy their shit.

Fuck em. My money is mine. And they aren't getting it unless I already wanted what they're selling. They aren't going to persuade me to buy shit.

Because you had the luxury to not have to settle for less. Mom would feed and clothe you in the meantime. Someone like me who lives 50 bucks at a time has take whatever McJob comes my way, especially in Michigan with a 15% unemployment rate. So please don't try to twist it into you have such wisdom and patience, just some of us don't eat if we dont jump on the first job we can get.
actually no i had unemployement checks coming in twice a month, ever heard of it? i had a lease i could not break so i had $1100 a month for RENT to pay. and i live in california where the unemployment rate is 11.6%.

I have no idea what "EDD" is and i don't see how you having an 1100 rent payment has anything to do with you skipping jobs for a better one. Im sure "EDD" comes into play and explains that for me but fucking googling.

im simple terms i got unemployement checks becuase i got laid off. and trust me lots of potential employers skipped me as well. its not like i hadnt been searching for these months. i just didnt apply to the local retail spot JUST to have a job. does that make sense?

Money lets girls who usually wouldn't look your way at least give you a chance and maybe you do fall in love. In this money first society the poor are left miserable.
if you end up with one of those girls you really won't have any money.

love has nothing to do with money. infatuation, obsession, greed, those have to do with money.

exactly!

a need has to be established.

how dare you take away my prop! lol :siccness:


and as far as jobs....everyone says take what yo ucan get...well, if you're spending 10 hours a day making $10/hr.....that' 100 a day...

but if you spend 10 hours a day going around to places, looking for jobs, applying, sending resumes, GOING to the places to apply, talkign to people, making a face to face connection...

you're more likely to get a job doing that. and then you'd be stupid for taking a 10 hour shift at $10/hr.

BUT i know how things go and you can't always hold out for that.

there's exceptions to every rule.

my bad it should be back there lol

yeah looking for a job is like a full time job in itself. but i do understand that not everyone is so fortunate. i am not at a disconnect with the rest of the world.

i wasn't sayin you were at a disconnect lol....

i actually wasn't referring to you at all :) and thanks for giving me my prop back. i was quite saddened. lol!


but yeah, i'll tell my job hunting story.

i applied at over 175 places, over 3 months. I got 3 calls back. One was due to someone I knew. One place fucked me around sayin they were going to hire me but flaked the fuck out. And the other place told me after a fwe weeks they hired someone else.

The ONLY reason I have the job I do is cause of who i know. So I'm super lucky and I know it.

But applying was my full time job. I looked up shit for 5-10 hours every day when I woke up.

So, the moral is, going to college adn getting a degree with two minors and doing an internship and hella shit outside of shcool in my field DID NOTHING to help me get a job. I'm in sales for HVAC shit (heating venitlation and A/C).....

I'm just happy to have a job, period.
