@Blackberry Gadzooks! We agree!?! LOL LOL LOL
@Syger I would have to say I am quite that way maybe to my own detriment my mother always taught me to find 5 ways to help before seeking one way to get out of it. Some people make it hard, you say you are going to the post office and then the pharmacy and you need to get back because the cable guy is coming. They say “Oh, can I ride with you? My drycleaners is near the post office”, you want so say ‘no’ but feel if it were you, you’d hope someone would give you a ride. Then it is “Since by bank is right over there, can we swing by? I need to make a deposit”. So, off to the bank, then when you finally get to the pharmacy—late they want to run over and get a burger, they will be “right back”. Another 20 minutes down the tubes you head back home then it is can you swing past so-in-so street so they can get the baking ban from his sister-in law. You spend an extra 40min. or more and drove 2 miles out of the way and they think it is nothing. I try to do what Jesus would have done but he can turn water in to wine, and if I could do that I could at least turn water into petro. It maybe just an extra 2 miles but in a down economy those miles can add up at around $3 bucks a gallon, and I won’t even get off about the tools which are harder to replace when broken or loss.
@Cruiser Ummmm………and people wonder why outsourcing is spreading like wild fire? You give people good wages and benefits but they still want more. Who do they think is eventually going to pay for their benefits? John Q is, then he is gonna want more, but he still don’t want to pay more than big box department store prices so in order to do that, bingo, big box goes over seas to get supplied and to get its goods. Now John Q, a Joe X don’t have a job and blame it all on management.
@lynneblundell They say you can run but you can’t hide, they will find you can cover yourself with brush and hide under a rock, they will find you (ominous music plays)
