Oh, you mean the same people who spend the first half of their life slacking are suddenly wanting to speand the rest of it working themselves to the bone. Makes sense...

yup.

diligence isn't an inherent quality, some people pick it up later in life.

This is disgracefully in favor of oil companies and gas companies against protestors. Since when does anyone have to pay to protest?

Pretty sure they mean if you file in protest as part of the regulatory review process. Presumably, this is because of the hordes of professional anti-everything people that bog down the review process for pretty much everything. Hundreds or thousands of people routinely register with the regulatory bodies which costs a lot of money and wastes a lot of time while adding no value.

that's freedom for ya!

@magicalclick: good point, never thought of that, but both are extremely rare circumstances. usually the child will have to show genuine talent.

What an idiot. I'm making just shy of $40k a year as a single guy, living with several other people (splitting rent) and eating cheap food. It's the perfect time to work hard and build savings.

Slaving away your youth.

He'll be retiring in his 60's, you will probably be working until the day you drop.

Yeah shitty advice...don't try until you're 35, lol. That's horrible advice. Hell, there's certain career paths that are sealed off for many by the time they graduate high school, or even before. I can only imagine all the paths closed if you don't start trying until 35.

dunno what part of the world you live in, but it must suck.

best buy is terrible in terms of employment opportunities. since you're seasonal, you boss probably wouldn't give you a reference. I've never walked out of a job, so i'm not gonna tell you to do it, but you also don't need me to tell you that you aren't leaving much behind.

I'm with Rev, there's something this guy isn't telling us. it's like that "homeless man with the golden voice" story. people thought that guy was just down on his luck, until after he got a job people did some research, and realized he was a complete d-bag who put himself in that position.

either way, i wish him the best.

I'm DONE guys.

It's a waste of time to discuss things with people that just want to insult others with a difference of views on subjects. I've even tried to explain my opinions to a few who actually politely asked but yet again the people that like to insult had to come out to try to close me down without even reading them.

OT have once again totally derailed a thread where my initial comment was "legalize gay marriage already", congratz on ruining yet another thread.

Take some time though if you can in learning how to respect other people's opinions and views, but I guess that is too much to ask since none of you act like adults.
