I guess it depends on if you do long hauls or daily deliveries. I have a cousin who delivers chips. My uncle worked for Thomas' English Muffins for about thirty years. Only sacrifice I recall both really making is waking up extra early. My uncle is now living a comfortable retirement in Myrtle Beach.
There's drawbacks and benefits to any career. If the benefits outweigh the costs, then go for it.
After a long time of one of my friends over the internet insisting I should watch the TV show Dexter and that I'd like it, I finally noticed it was on Netflix, so I've been binge-watching it. Got to love Netflix. I think I'm in the mood for more right about now. Back to binge-watching, which I haven't done since earlier this year with Breaking Bad, prior to the final season.
This is a source of information which should make those in the UK very happy with the University I currently study in:
Believe it or not, 13 % of our university population speaks with an English accent according to a recent poll. Its not out of question since our university was founded in 1766 under a charter from Queen of England (still preserved in our welcome center). She liked scarlet, hence we were endowed with the nickname Scarlet Knights. On November 10th 2016, we will celebrate the university's 250th birthday, older than America itself by 10 years. Its name was originally Queens college till 1825 when it was renamed in honor of Colonel Henry Rutgers, a famous war hero during the American revolution. We also have an enormous clock whose chime exactly matches that of the Big Ben in London, and it is one of the few landmarks in this region which has been in operation since pre independence days. So, Rutgers university does share a particularly intimate connection with the royal family in England in spite of its all American presence as the state university of NJ.
Oh man, I lolled so bad. France has a party called "Chasse, Pêche, Nature, Traditions", the Hunt, Fish, Nature and Tradition party.
Whoever came up with that name must be a marketing genius.
Rozenn, ever voted for them?
This party's name is often mentioned before the presidential elections. This guy is often present at the first ballot, though he backed Sarko at the last presidential election. Come to think of it, yeah, that's quite a funny name. Fitting background for the pic btw.
Usually, a couple funny blokes crawl out of their den before the presidential elections. Like this one in 2007, the self-proclaimed mayors' candidate.

Definitely. I bet a lot of hunters vote for the CPNT party. At the 2007 presidential election, it got a whopping 1.15% nationwide but only 0.16% in Paris.
Voting for them? Not that I remember, I try to enter polling stations when sober. It's serious business.
