Tonight, I really dislike the 1%

I have been working at my job for five months and found out my boss has expenensed:
His condo
$30,000 parking spaces for said condo
His two acuras
plus other expenses including a steamer.
On top of his ridiculous salary.
And i was told today that I could not attend a necessary conference because of budgetary constraints - even though they paid $600 for it already. Just because of mileage and hotel. I am sick to my stomach right now. And I can't even pay my water bill right now as a campus dirctor of a college.

You have been there for 5 whole months and they haven't promoted you to CEO yet? Them bastards.

And grammar. My internet is shut off until I get paid on Friday. That is how hard up me and my partner are right now. All we have is cell phones which just got turned on again last week

Maybe it's just me, but I would pay the water bill before I worried about the internet bill.

Do any of these sooper geniuses not have major money problems?
I'm not exactly rich, but we do the crazy thing of paying our bills before we do anything else.


I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

BlurryNumbers, instead of envying your boss, why not start your own company, become your own boss, and expense everything? Then you could be the 1% and really dislike yourself!

I saw the "Partner" also. I think they are just trying to find something to bitch and moan about, while in the process of blaming the 1%. I feel so bad for them, Not!

Oh No!  That would involve work.  Right now its easier to look for pity.

I would think a "campus dirctor of a college" would make enough money to pay the water bill. I bet he makes more than I do, yet I seem to survive.
Anyone know how much a "campus dirctor of a college" makes?

It all depends on what they are a director of. I don't think they make anymore than a professor?

I am sure it does. A director is like a head of a department. So I am going to go out on a limb here and say maybe 40,000 to 50,000?

America is such a cruel country!  Even the "poor" can afford their cell phone bill to get on the internet.  How do you not have enough money for a water bill?  How much water do you consume to get to the point you can't afford it?  The highest water bill we have ever had in Las Vegas (a desert) was $35.

That is something that burns me. People can't afford heat or food, but yet they can afford a cell phone. I don't understand that.

If it came down to food or a cellphone I would choose food.

It's enough money to pay a water bill.  But then again, maybe the DUmmy is paying too much money in gas in this 0bamaconomy and can't afford the water bill. 

How do you shower?  I mean, I guess I shouldn't even ask that because I've seen some of those DUmmies and they definitely do not shower daily.

Free cell phones are available to those receiving government aid.  Free for the mooches, but the tax payers pay for them.  http://www.freegovernmentcellphones.net/states

Can someone tell me why I pay for my Moms cellphone instead of pawning her off on the State/Government?

The people I see with phones like the iphone and droid phones. I'm not sure if the free service offers those.

I don't think so.  That free gubmint phone only gets you a pushbutton cell phone (no touch screen) with a fixed number of minutes.

It's kind of like gubmint housing, but that doesn't seem to stop people from filling them up.  I noticed they dressed up the projects since I drove through there in 2000.  Now they have little townhouse-style awnings over each entrance.  So kind of the city to allow the taxpayers to put them there.

I have no idea what a "campus dirctor of a college" might be.

It's apparently a job an illiterate DUmpmonkey can get, so it must not be much.

And when they mention a "partner" they should specify if it's a queer or a shackup.

It is the DUmp, so it's most likely a pair of queers.

yeah, I'm not to sure. I just don't like seeing someone who can't afford heat or food texting on their iPhone or droid phone. They can pay 100.00 for the phone bill, but can't pay .99 cents for a loaf of bread.
