If it’s so f’n easy why don’t you fire your pool biz back up, hire dudes for the wages that Jao Xiden thinks you should pay and show us your books when you’re all done. I project red ink....lots of red ink.

People tend to forget that things like market forces tend to cap what you can charge which dictates what you can pay your guys. I’m sure my customers would happily pay 20% extra so my crew can make more. Yeah. I’m sure that’s all I need to do.

Or maybe I’d be better off to follow the socialist deadbeat motto and just close my shop down and say fuck it and live off the Govt teet. Sure be less aggravation for me.

No, it shows people are lazy, and sure as hell aren't hungry. Take away their meal ticket, they'll cry. Get hungry enough, they'll work.
This is correct. But right now they have a free meal ticket.

Speaking of free meal tickets. We received just that the other day in the mail. We got sent a P-EBT card. It has my oldest daughters name on it.
We hada No idea wtf it was. So I started my google search.
Basically it is to supplement school lunches that she has not got because of covid. I think.

Anyway it has $600 on it and instacart accepts it. You don’t even have to sign up for it. It just gets sent out I guess.

Funny thing is my kid always takes lunch to school lol.
Crazy that we are getting government handouts that we don’t even know about or ask for. Imagine what the low life’s are applying for and getting.

The government tit is real. And to Grads point, it’s easier to stay home and live the same than work for it. Unfortunately people can look themselves in the mirror every morning while milking it.

Shows how lazy folks are.
My grandparents helped raise me - biggest learning = money earned is better then money given
So glad my grandfather taught me that. biggest issue today, everyone thinks they deserve everything by doing nothing. Wife’s company can’t hire front desk staff quick enough to open locations back up, solution is automated front desk and no staff!

We had a similar situation when this scam-demic started last year. We send the kids to school every day with lunch and last year when all of this started our kids were coming home with school hand out lunches. We didnt need them, we didnt sign up for them, we didnt request them but when my wife asked the principal what it was all about she was told that they had to be handed out no questions asked.

It was an absolute waste of school money, think about every kid in K-12th grade received one regardless if they needed one or not and this went on for over a month. I understand some families had some hardship through all of this but to assume every kid needed lunch/breakfast hand outs was ridiculous.

Not to mention the food they were handing out was garbage- chocolate doughnuts, chocolate milk, boxed cereal full of sugar, soggy sandwiches. We ended up accumulating a bunch of food and dropped it off at a local church.

My point being this was all a huge waste of money and the money could have been put to better use towards the students and school supplies.

Entry level wages aren't meant to be a living wage or a wage to raise family on. Some choose to do so, not clue how but obviously its not "success". People with little to no skills or experience need to start somewhere and work their way up.

My company pays entry level jobs twice what our local minimum wage is. We had plenty of people applying before the additional unemployment benefits went in to place. Now not so much.

People who are sitting at home collecting unemployment today are the ones who will always been in that situation. They have no desire to work their way up and out of that spot. Someone worth $15/hr pre covid could find themselves a job today for $25/hr without leaving their fucking house.

Ones who are applying for and getting the job are actually hard workers and want to advance themselves, at least thats what we're seeing right now. Theres just not enough of them. There are soooo many openings out there. WAY more than the media is telling the American people about.

btw- total fishing attempt by grads. He's on the water early today! Dont get worked up.

No, this is an interesting way to prove that whoever is running the unemployment system had (1) no clue about how the economy works (2) doesn't care about the businesses that have been running for years under the current wage system and (3) doesn't give a shit about these people getting this 'bonus' because they've hooked these them (just like drug dealers do) with the money. And sooner or later....it's going to be taken away.
Any anyone who thinks there's problems now.... ain't seen nothing yet.

There isnt much too it.
Failed business owner pretends to live a lavish lifestyle on his wifes IS&T Helpline salary.
My first apartment was bigger than his 1,576sqft $200k shitbox 😂

come on man....... get ur facts straight. He bought his shithole in June 2000 for $191.5k. Comes on here and makes it seem that he lives right by Folsom but in reality, HWY 80 is more his backyard. Failed supposed millionaire who could not even incorporate had to file BK’s on his own name. 😂 Oh. By the way, nowhere near so called millions in earnings. House is mortgaged to the hilt. Hint.... that’s how he buys his cars, boats. Embellishes everything that comes out of his pie hole. His shitbox is worth $650k now. Take it down about $125k. By the way, he does work. Wait for it 😳 Hahahahaha

And while you all are typing furiously, Grads just sits back an laughs at having riled you all up so easily. It's a sick and stupid way for him to get his jollies, but you fall for it every single time.

Imagine if this topic just dropped down in the pile with no replies.

Stop feeding the troll.

Makes no sense and then they take away the vending machines in case your Kid wants a Soda now and then. Yet they send home sacks of shit food.

My daughter at Private School has the exact opposite food issue. They only serve vegan, gluten free, meat free or salads options! The poor kids cant even get some chicken nuggets for christ sake. No middle ground these days!

This exactly sums it up.
My niece is a 22 year old art student drop out. She does the absolute bare minimum to scrape by, teaching a single 2 hr art course online earning 250 per week. Orders a box of food and rations it. She thinks working at Starbucks should net you 100k a year.
They are lazy and want to be able to earn a good living doing it.

My first job was McDonald's at 15 making 4.25/hr barely able to make my own car insurance note for my driver's permit. Over 2 decades later I earn enough for a mortgage and private school for my kids in a nice neighborhood with a few river trips and I worked my ass off to get there.

And she has the gall to tell me that I should have white guilt for the life I live.

Royally pisses me off

So I honestly have zero problem with what you described (minus her unrealistic expectations from a starbucks gig)

If she wants to live a modest life, i'd never fault her for it. Trust me, i've thought MANY times about selling everything I have, leaving my career, and moving to super rural area and taking a part time gig turning a wrench to offset my costs. I'm very positive I could net enough cash working that way just to have some walking around town money. I know i'd spend most of my day working to live though.

My issue is if shes over there complaining about shit, and not doing anything about it.

Or it's intended to benefit large corporations who can afford the (short-term) wage costs that small businesses cannot.

I don't disagree with you one bit. A modest life sounds actually pretty nice especially when things get extremely hectic and rat race like.
But get this, she lives with mom sitting on her ass in the same (now empty) home I grew up in, the same house I held 2 jobs at 18 and going to J/C, in the same nice neighborhood that I bought a home in and accuses ME of white guilt.

when you're mooching off of people (or government) while not being productive, thats where I have issues.

Los Angeles is proposing universal basic income.. 1,000 a month for everyone!

I wonder if anyone actually thinks about where that money comes from.. 😳

Dont you know us Californinas have a surplus of money to hand out to just about anyone but the people who actually work and make the money?

Its a good thing we dont have a homeless crisis, or shitty roads and infrastructure. Seems money could be spent elsewhere but that's just not the humane thing to do.

Isn't Newscum giving something like 20 Billion to fight homeless ( or I mean to try and buy another election) And a free bank account to every student when they start preschool.

Here is what's going on at the schools, and why they are giving out free shit...

How do I know these things?? My wife works in the accounting department of a jr college.

What happened is, the gooberment gave the schools MILLIONS of fucking dollars in the name of covid relief. The schools HAVE to spend this money!!!!!

Well guess what? There really are not enough things at the moment they need to spend this money on, within the guidelines of the program. And, all the employees that work in her department, already have enough work to do, without trying to figure out how to spend money! So........................

Now they are looking to hire someone for the specific purpose of spending all the money they get from these goooberment programs!!!!

Did the school ask for this money? NO, IT DID NOT.

Buy they are going crazy trying to figure out how to spend it within the guidelines of the program. This "program" is set to last two or three years at least. The millions of unspent dollars they have sitting in the bank right now, will soon be infused with even more millions of dollars when the next big check shows up.

This is why your students are getting money they never asked for.

There is a shit ton more to this story as well. Some of the relief money actually went to teachers. When other teachers from other schools found out what school A was doing, the teachers from school B went to the union to ask where their fucking money was! So now the unions are involved...

Wanna guess that's gonna go???

:mad::rolleyes::mad:

If you voted for Biden, you're a complete idiot. This administration is completely fucking insane.

The good guys earn it just to give away to the people who don’t earn it. Thus de-incentivize the good guys to earn money. Therefore more leaches are created and the snowball starts. Soon there are more leaches than earners and that is the end of us.
