So the only time you are cool with someone is when you want something from them. So the moment you don't want something from someone... fuck them.

Ouch. Fair enough. Not the way I wanted to sound, but on consideration, that's the only way it's going to. It's a flaw, and is a relatively shitty way to act.

As far as the banks are concerned etc, I guess then you've got no concerns about buying a home, financing a business, buying a car, etc.

People remind me of this, and it never bothers me. I've never really wanted a car, the home thing I'm sure I can sort out before I'm actually interested in buying a home (a good 8 - 10 years away) and financing a business as you may have gathered, isn't my style.

The fact that some people have managed through whatever combination of luck and brilliance to find themselves on the top of the fiscal heap does not make them evil or out to get you.

Fair cop. Was spouting angry "I just got fired" shite. On the other hand, the people I've encountered when just a small amount of money is involved who are (I'm being really, really polite about this) so awfully mercenary leads me to think that the evil capitalist image (sans monocle and top hat) isn't that rare.

If you call in sick and you are, in fact, not sick, you've lied, dishonored yourself, and compromised your integrity.

If I could call in and say "I need a day off because I've been too tired to socialise. So I need some socialising, you know, to be a happy and productive worker." then there'd be no lie.
Btw, I'm not off every goddam day! In the first few weeks of a dull job, maybe one or two times (adjusting, you see).

Wow, what a well thought out and intelligent post that clearly follows the rules of the TFP and CONTRIBUTES to the respectful tone of discussion here.

Whilst I realise the comment's not aimed at me, am I furthering to the topic of discussion and being respectful in the TFP's opinion? I'm curious and realise my position is one that draws a fair amount of ire. You may call me a twat, if needs be
