I'm having my 1964 Sunbeam Alpines bumpers rechromed and both the platers and metal polishers are snowed under with work and both can't get any one to work for them! In the UK it seems most people only want to sit in an office all day. If its hard work and dirty no one wants to do it, even if the pay's good!

Why save the world, when you can rule it?

You're right; we're a bunch of lazy buggers here. It doesn't help that the hardworking man just gets shat on and laughed at by everyone.

The problem in the UK is that we have a wealth of small and at times very specialized industries. But because they are small and too busy trying to keep afloat no one really cares about them.

Governments think an industry is small if it has 100 workers, whilst most small business have 3 or 4 people at the most. I should know I used to run one - half my life was taken up with red tape and apart from bureaucrats no one earns money from red tape!

I'm afraid if this government wanted to really save money they could scrap 25% of the civil service and no one would notice :eek:

Sorry I'll get down from my soap box ;)

I predict by the end of summer Republicans won't have the economy to run on either.

You can't know how hard I've been laughing to myself watching GOPer after GOPer line up to sign last rites on the Obama administration before even his 2 year mark based on unemployment.:1orglaugh:facepalm:

I kept trying to warn them that Obama is ahead of where Reagan was at similar points in their terms on unemployment.

Just wait 'til after it turns around. It will be the Clinton era excuse, "Presidents don't have any affect on the economy.":rolleyes::1orglaugh:1orglaugh (After, all the bashing him on the economy of course.:facepalm:)

Sock it to all of you wealthy business 'owners' who seek out nothing but the acquisition of personal enrichment at the expense of the needy, I know you make the big bucks as you egregiously go about your wicked red head ways to manipulate the system. Hey, HMR&C . . . hit her with another 5% income, payroll, energy consumption, East Afrikaan refugee housing projects and value added tax clean across the board for being so outspoken. :p

Aldi is hiring.

Manager Trainee / Assistant Store Manager $20.50 an hour.

You know, Will, this is a good link. Thanks.

There are jobs out there to be had. A lot of people who are very educated think that many of these jobs are beneath them. Know what? It will pay your rent/mortgage, and buy you food.

Still sound beneath you? Then you're fucking stupid. Take whatever you need to in order to make life work.

It could be argued that it has been so miserable lately that that isn't saying much. It doesn't take too much to beat what we have been through.

Plus, going forward the types of jobs people will be getting won't be anything to write home about. It's not just about employment, but quality of life and the kinds of employment people have.

when we have unemployment figures, real income, buying power, health insurance, pensions, the fairer spread of wealth, and other things approaching what we had in the 60s then maybe we can start being a little confident again.

The only thing that will matter to the voters on the first Tues. of the eleventh month of the twelfth year of the twenty first century is . . . are they better off (on this upcoming election day) than they were in late '08.


I suppose that if you're a pro subsidy - marginal rate tax bracket paying kinda person who needs government assistance at every step, the answer will be a resounding YES!
