Found a job, but what a letdown.


 
I found a job after a lengthy period of time unemployed. Everybody around me us jumping for joy but man, I feel let down. After all this time, it's the best i can do. Why can't I just look at the positive side? I'm sure I'll get there.

My heart breaks for this poor DUmmy.
He finally found a job and it isn't his dream job. There should be a law allowing everyone to have their dream job.  :whatever:

I've worked a job that I don't like for almost 3 years now, but you know what I'm glad I at least have something.

It's been FIVE years, and I have NEVER found full-time or even part-time work, benefits or no, and I am nowhere close to ever getting on my feet again.

All I can get are shitty substitute jobs that are impossible to support myself.

I thought the economy was booming. I suppose it is George W Bush who keeps this DUmmy down.


:ownit:


You idiots broke this country you idiots can deal with the shit that you voted for twice now.

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.

Five years, eh?  That's the exact amount of time Obama's been in office.  Couldn't be a coincidence at all.

It means everyone gets the same amount and no one works.

It comes from people that have worked retirements.....and rich people......and then corporations.....until no one has anything of value.

They all want this grand socialist dream, but they don't understand that to get to the point of total government dependance the government will have to kill the free market and bankrupt the citizens and everyone will have to go hungry for a while....

Liberal thinking is a two-legged stool and magical thinking is one of the legs, the other is a combination of self-loating and misanthropy.  To understand it, you would have to be able to sit on that stool while juggling two elephants, an anvil and a fragmentation grenade, sans pin.

Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

I heard a piece about that on the radio yesterday.

One of Chicago's leaders was saying the worst thing about the school closures is that they were done without considering the gang turf students would have to cross on the way to their new schools.

Blood kids should have a school on Blood turf.

What's the over/under on this DUmmy making it through the jobs probationary period?

With an attitude like that I bet he/she/it doesn't make it two weeks.

I bet the dummie won't last 3 days. The boss will look at him cross eyed or something and the dummy will quit. The dummie would not get along with my boss. He expects results and a professional attitude. Both attributes seem to be lacking in dummies.
