I have a BA and graduated with honors, and a vet and middle age. Because there are no decent paying jobs I've had to settle for some terrible jobs.
Cleaning public restrooms, scrubbing dog vomit and crap from dog kennels, you name it, I've done it, excluding stooping down to make money in
anything illegal like some people do.
In these jobs I've had to deal with the low-lifes of the work force. I've recieved death threats for making supervisor of the public restroom
facilities from my co-workers because of jealousy. I was promoted to supervisor with in a matter of a month because I am a hard worker and dedicated,
yes even to scrubbing the toilets where the fat rich asses of ALL colors sit their fanny on vacation. And I recieved no raise with the promotion.
Taken advantage of for my hard work just like a SLAVE. Except in this day and age we get NO WHIPPING ON OUR BACKS THAT TEARS THE FLESH. Our
whipping, my whipping, is of the SPIRIT AND OF THE HUNGRY BELLY AND LIVING IN CRAPPY HOMES WITH STRANGERS OR BOYFRIENDS. We don't get a chance to
OWN OUR OWN HUMBLE HOMES or have anything nice in life. We get no vacations. We have no land of our own to plant a garden in because we can't
afford to buy the land. So, after being promoted I'm paid the same measly eight bucks an hour because my employer took advantage of me, like most
American employers do, the same ones who whine that they have to pay us eight bucks and hour and exclaim they can't afford to do so while they own 3
cars, a boat, a huge house and a summer cottage, go on vacations and send their kids to college and go shopping at all the expensive stores! Huh?
So I continued living with my boyfriend, now my ex, who was living with his dad in his house because making 8 bucks an hour, full time, does NOT cut
it when, just for example, milk is 4 bucks a gallon, and gas almost 3 bucks a gallon.
Don't whine to me about Americans not taking jobs that are beneath them, because we have and are, on top of competing with the illegals and foreign
student workers our resort city loves to hire leaving more Americans out of work and dealing with the dredges of society, while we come back to our
nasty little shacks to rest up for another day in the SLAVE TRADE.
