If you stupidly think that because I don't have to work now, means I didn't sweat my ass off, you are full of shit.
I am lucky, I will never deny that. But from the time I was 17 up until my mothers passing, I constantly had to work my ass off.
Have you ever worked a breakfast joint on Easter Sunday as a dishwasher? Have you ever had to do labor work on a construction site in the middle of winter?
Have you ever sat in a nursing home 12 to 16 hours a day 6 to 7 days a week, to care for your aging parent?
I AM DAMNED FUCKING LUCKY I had the mother I did. But you don't know my job history. I have worked for 7-11, Papa Johns, and construction companies. Shithole companies who don't give a fuck how miserable you are.
So when you say you work for a living. I am sure you do. But don't hand me any crap, that if you were handed what my mom handed me, you'd continue to sweat your ass off if you didn't have to.
You earn a living. Most do. But how dare you stupidly assume that now that I am in a better position to relax, that somehow I don't know what it is like to struggle.
I used to work at a breakfast place that opened at 6am. I would work until 2pm, then the place would close for two hours, reopen at 4 for dinner. In that time I would clean the kitchen scrubbing everything, floors, counters, backsplashes and then go back to dishwashing for another 3 hours when they opened up at 4 for dinner. I would come in at 6 and sometimes not leave till 10pm that night. GO GO F YOURSELF with your judgmental bullshit.
I didn't say you never worked. I said that some of us have to earn a living. You're fortunate in that you do not. I was explaining (although I shouldn't have had to) why it seemed to take me longer than usual to answer one of your trivia questions - I was applying varnish to a mandolin.
I've never, EVER said or implied that you don't know what it's like to work.
Kindly leave off the insults and childish bad language until I actually say something that merits you speaking to me like that.
Boru
NO SHIT!
You have to work. Yea, and I wish and hope at some point you can get to where I am at, and be able to relax like I am lucky to do FOR NOW. I don't even know what my mom left me will last. I am going to try to make it last.
My job history has nothing to do with the logic of this thread. Just like it is bullshit for anyone on the left or right to use "You live in your mother's basement" which I have heard as an argument form both conservatives and liberals.
How is my luck, and I am lucky, something you attempted to vilify just now.
YES YOU WORK, AND I AM SURE YOU WORK YOUR ASS OFF. But so have I. But don't expect me to apologize for not having t sweat now.
