I'm tired of being broke.

I’m planning on going through another round of resume sending and cover letter writing tomorrow.

if I stole $5 a day from them, guys in blue could come and pick me up

^ Yes, these kinds of swindles go on all the time, and I really don't like them. The thing most valuable to a working guy is his time: everyday he has a limited quantity of hours that he can sell, but as elph says, companies often want to steal some of that resource, so that the poor guy ends up giving to the rich guy. It really bugs me because it's so common and yet so immoral.

From my experience, the whole unpaid overtime scam usually begins by the boss saying, "We are very pleased with your work and would like to give you more responsibility...."

I was thinking this while I was washing dishes. Man, you’re ****ed no matter what. As I teacher I was ****ed. Unemployed I’m ****ed. Restaurant negro. ****ed. The only time in my life when I didn’t have glass ***** up my ass I was overseas. Your time is stolen. Your energy is stolen. Your sanity is stolen. Rich people kill thenselves. Poor people kill each other. Instead of investing in ourselves collectively we budget a military bigger than the next ten put together. Honest to God, if you don’t hate America you’re a ****ing fool. People wonder how could I want there to be a civil war or for Putin to knock us off the map. How could you ****ing not? We’re ruining the whole ****ing world. **** America.

they've done studies on this in the US and Hourly Wage Theft is very real, it's estimated to far surpass your garden variety criminal theft

they used to pull that **** at Walmart

One of my coworkers would work through his breaks to try to get done

I said **** it and took mine. I was more productive then half the people there so I knew they wouldn't fire me.

Compartmentalize

And eat her pussy every ****

Worship that you flesh as if it were god.

Lick her anus. Stay up in it. **** politics. Her beauty is your only concern.

Let the universe crumble. Who gives a **** when you’re up in something so wonderful and sweet. Learn a little Spanish for her abuela or don’t you already know some Mexican?

So glad to have to back. And congratulations. Sooooooo Jelly. This little Mexican college student chick was in our dishroom helping out on Friday and I swear to God man I love those ****ing women so much.

^ For your own piece of mind, perhaps you should try a policy of "Don't get mad, get even." Not major subversion, but a little token that lets you feel, "Aha! I really got back by making this personal photocopy at work!"

^ Yep, that's always the method, the unspoken subtext. Countries in order of abusive unpaid overtime:
Mexico is off-the-scale bad; US sounds brutal; UK workers don't fall for this ruse so much, which means instead that whole industries are collapsing because production costs so high. Some times you just can't win

^ One option might be to ask your girlfriend why she isn't paying towards a border wall the way Trump told you she was going to. Or you could chant, "Send her back" next time yr girlfriend mentions her mom.You'd prob find your romance and accompanying dilemma over pretty soon.

A better option imo would be to re-assess your allegiance to Trump. This thread, for example might persuade you to see him as an incompetent racist conman:- https://www.musicbanter.com/current-...mp-do-now.html. Started in Oct 2016, even post#1 alone stands as a prescient testimony to how false Trump's "drain the swamp/get the best people" boasts were.

Troll sockpuppet

Date the ban will be lifted: Never

first time ever being called a "Troll" I actually enjoyed that website too. They need to learn a better way to discipline people with their posts. The rules are little grey with photos because I was able to share a baseball logo, but not a tv show logo.
