I didn't say that. Based on his writings here Bat's a very smart guy. But he's admitted that he lacks any motivation to better himself, i.e., work towards getting a better job (more $$$). Instead he goes off on me because I don't agree with tipping in fast food places - like it's my responsibility to put a little extra cash in his pocket.

There's lots of low paying jobs out there. What's next? Should we start tipping at Target? Pet Smart? The supermarket? Barnes and Noble? The gas station?

I did my time working for **** pay. Instead of bitching about it I busted my ass and took some night courses to start moving up the ladder. It's not my fault if he lacks the determination to do the same.

Not sure how it is elsewhere, but it seems like everyone is hiring right now around here. Pretty sure some are paying better than minimum. You actively filling out applications Bat to see if you can land something better for yourself?
