Work Ethic
You would think that with today's unemployment rates that the work ethic of my generation (25-30) would be higher and more of a concern. I feel that most of the people that I encounter need a big slap on the back of the head. WHAT the heck went wrong with people these days? Makes me scared at what the next generation will bring???
Or am I alone on this thought?

Is that true LC?

sure is. the work gets easier and people get lazier. one thing that really burns my arse up is to need help in a store. see two clerks talking. walk up to them. they look at you and go back talking to each other. I am no longer welcome in one store here.

It was alittle more than I wanted to spend on a junk house like that but the money I'll save on PBR's will be well worth it.
What time will you be home from work Carpy? I like to start early on fridays.
