funceca88 Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 so i just got off school and desided i was gonna go to jack in the box to get some grub, when out of the corner of my eye i see this homeless person, i said to my self' aw here we go again, this lazy bastard gonna whant something '. know im a person with strong conservitave believes, i believe that if you got youre self in trouble or in too a stiuation where you had contro l, then its up too you to dig your self out of that hole. know lets admit it, most, i mean most homeless only do one thimg, bother people for money, harras people if you dont give them something , and if yoiu do give them money all they do is spend it on beer and drugs , and what pisses me off even more are the ones that claim to be veterans, please our troops , both past and present, are good descent people that have the streng too keep going and to be productive in society. anyways back to the topic, after he askd me for change i said ' why dont you go and be productive to society, what he said next SHOCKD ME, 'where, there arent any jobs'. where!?, this guy actually dint trie too cuz me out or hurt any of my possecions [ my truck], this guy actually had the balls to ask me where he could get a job. i got some tacos and i was tryng to find him so i could give him some, but he dissapered. the moral im trying to get across is that know a days everyone thinks they are entytled to everything, that goverment is here to bail them out, well ghees what, no, this country was founded by hard working people who had nothing and actually made it, trough the sweat of their b#lls, not trough lazyyness! , and thats what makes this country so great , along with other things anyways thanks for takin the time to read my post, i know its long but i just wanted too exprees myself to the coolest truck club , youre imput is greatly apreciated . thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brobradh77 Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 I can see where you are coming from....I usually feel the same way but in this day and time I try not to judge because it could be me or you next time....But like you I also see the ones that do nothing but beg for money and in cities like NY I have seen, on news shows, where this can be very lucrative and people actually do that as a job.

Bad Bowtie Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 (edited) I see where your coming from guys. On a side note, I still see ads almost everyday in our local paper for morning newspaper delivery routes. I know that isn't a FULL TIME job & it requires a vehicle in MOST cases, but at least it is some kind of basic income around here. Do the rest of you members on here have these same type of ads in your local papers?

CoolBlueSS Posted April 3, 2009 Report Share Posted April 3, 2009 You have to do what you have to do to survive. I would go mow lawn, flip burgers, deliver pizzas, or sweep floors if that's what it took. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for serving. My point being that so many people that get laid off complain that they can't find a job in their field. There just comes a point where you have to have an income, and if it means taking a job that you would consider beneath you then so be it.
