Obama, a liar and a bully, all in one press conference.

       Its easy for one person to make statements like yours but in one of your previous posts in another thread you said you didn't work as hard as some people were working at a former job, and I would suspect that at least some of those that did work harder aren't making $80,000.00 a year now.

      I know people that worked at fastfood restaurants for more than twenty years who were never given the opportunity to move up to manager and never had huge increases in their standards of living while working there.

 

I said I worked harder then everyone in my office. I always have. I did say there are million of people in the world that worked less then me, and make more then me, but I don't care about those people. I care about working hard enough, and smart enough, to afford a standard of living I am happy with. I accomplished that goal.

As for the fast food comment. There are two ways to live your life. Work 40 hours a week for 5 years in fast food, or work 70 hours a week in fast food and school so you don't have to work in fast food the rest of your life.

I bet I know what one they chose.

Getting ahead takes work. No one said otherwise, and it's the way it ought to be. Nothing in life is free, thus everything in life one has that another doesn't, requires effort.

 

 

       Yeah, of course the kicker is that many times at these fast food jobs to stay in good graces with the company, a lot of the time they don't want you to work eight hours and go home.  They oftentimes want you to work as much as twelve to fifteen hours a day or even more during their inspection weeks.  Then combine that with forty-five minutes to an hour I had to drive to work and th forty-five minutes to an hour I had to drive back from work each day, and  that doesn't leave much time or energy for studies.
