First of all, what "bullshit work that no one should have to do"? Grow up! My first job was flipping burgers at McDonald's, back in the 70's, when we still wore paper hats. I was damn glad to have that job, because jobs were hard to come by. And yes, I made minimum wage, which was $2.90 per hour, at that time. Then I enlisted in the Air Force, where I spent the next 8 years of my life.

No, my friend, there is no such thing as "bullshit work" when you need a job. You are, in my opinion, just plain spoiled. If you want to live the life that you want to live...then get the hell out there and bust a damn sweat to earn the right to live that life. My guess is that your parents did. Whatever happened to starting at the bottom and working your way up?

I'm done ranting now. Otherwise I'm just going to have to PM myself with a warning for flaming.

*walks off muttering something about these damn kids today*
Damned if I don't sound just like my dad.
