I manage a men's shelter, the clients have to sleep sometime throughout the night.


The point was that there are posts (you do read posts that others start, I assume) that fed workers are all lazy bums and need to lose their jobs.
If you can post from work, don't make any comments about others.

I work at some wierd place in Asia where nobody speaks English, that's my excuse. There are times when I work, but when I have no work, I really have no work.

Fed workers actually have work to do. I literally have no work to do. It's awesome.

You should visit me out here for a hippy love-in. 60's style

Are you kidding? Most people are pretty reasonable on these boards. It is the people in real life that are cynical and callous.

There are many reasons but it boils down to two things:

1. I cannot stand snobs.
2. I cannot stand the sense of entitlement many people have.

In other words, I believe in hard work and fairness....not a sense of entitlement because of x reason or an air of supremacy for y reason.

I think it is because people are going through a crisis within their own lives, no matter what it is and they are angry. They are fed up with govt. and how we have ended up in this unfortunate situation, all of us. It has affected the average person in some way or another. I, for one are angry as well..our lives from being successful for 32 years has now turned into something that makes me so angry I don't even know how to deal with it. We've lost money too, our retirement, now we have to work for another 5 years and hopefully recover enough to put us into retirement. It angers alot of people.
