job

Something you can't find in America anymore because employers nowadays have set the bar of qualifications way to high. They only want "experienced" people, even for crappy jobs like bagging groceries or taking your food order. The irony is that you can’t gain any experience by not doing these things first. I’m sorry but how does one need experience to bag groceries or work at McDonalds? It used to be that if you had a four-year degree (or even a 2-year degree) from a half-recognized university or college, you could get a really good job and eventually have a promotion and have a really good future. But those days are over. Today they only want people who have internships, Masters Degrees, PHd's and some kind of public involvement for a job that’s not much better than average and pays no more than average. No employer will hire you anymore for even a computer position if you have anything less than a Masters degree, even if you are really knowledgable at computers. Employers nowadays also only want minorities to work for them, thanks to affirmative action in the name of “diversity”, so white people will finally be oppressed. My sister applied only as a Office Assistant (the keyword is Assistant) at a small-to-medium sized company, but they wouldn’t hire her because she didn’t have any professional experience and wasn’t “qualified”—-setting aside the fact that she is very good with computers and office stuff. What they really meant is that she was “too white” to have the job and had to hire a minority who is less qualified or a high-tech professional from India to fit their minority quota. And companies of today wonder why they can’t find good people? Thank the liberals and their “diversity” ilk that emphasizes political correct BS, that has ruined the middle-class. Companies of today put their focus and energy on bogus criteria like a high GPA (even though a high GPA doesn’t constitute being smart) rather than the person’s potential, or what they have to offer, or what they have overcome in this life. What if a person with a 3.5 GPA cheated their way thru college rather than someone who got a 3.0 and worked for it and overcame a lot of obstacles?? Employers of today don’t care because they are superficial bastards who only focus on meaningless crap. Like I said, they wonder why they can’t find quality people anymore.

In that case, I will NEVER have a job because I had a low GPA in college, no internships, no professional experience, no technical know-how, not many useful job skills, was never publicly involved in anything, and am notoriously lazy—and don’t care.

But when you finally manage to find a good job, it’s something you must have to work for a schmuck you hate, to earn money to buy things to impress people you hate even more, so a crook can eventually rob you. It’s all futile, and a complete waste of time!!

Having a job is actually the biggest fraud on the face of planet earth.

Carmel

1. A city in California (pronounced CAR-MELL) south of the Bay area. Population of 4,078 in 2000.

2. A city in fast-growing Hamilton County, Indiana (pronounced CAR-MUHL)and a posh suburb of Indianapolis. It is much larger than the California city with the exact same name. It is one of the fastest-growing communities in Indiana (above 30,000 that is) and one of the fastest-growing in the Midwest. It had a population of just 28,000 in 1990, up to 38,000 in 2000, and a special census in 2007 recorded approximately 85,000. The city is experiencing growing pains. Carmel is in the process of annexing Clay Township, due to heavy growth. Its population growth requires its sewers to be upgraded. It was considered just a bedroom community for Indianapolis for many years, but things are quickly changing. It has gained thousands of jobs and population in just a few years as companies expand or even relocate to the area. It was ranked as one of America's top 25 best places to live according to Forbes Magazine in 2006.

Carmel, Indiana is a very nice community to live with good schools, a family atmosphere, low crime and a growing number of jobs. It is one of just a few towns in Indiana with a lot of rich people.

AIG

The act of binging your own company into the ground, and then asking the government for a bailout, and then using the bailout money to give yourself a big fat bonus.

Almost a synonym for Enroned.

AIG is another ENRON.

Big Brother

A horrible reality show on CBS that the network has yet to catch on has low ratings that no one wants to watch. Twelve shameless "houseguests" of mostly twenty-somethings are spied upon 24-7 in the “Big Brother house” on the CBS lot and seen scheming against those contestants they dislike. It's basically a popularity contest. A competition is held every week to determine the Head of Household who will nominate two candidates for eviction. Each week the cast votes to oust the next person from the Big Brother House. On the last episode, the cast votes for the $500,000 winner.

Seeing these pathetic, hopeless people on Big Brother who are desperate for 10-minutes of fame or shame makes me realize my life isn’t so bad after all. The funniest thing is not the contestants, but that CBS thinks this is actually entertaining and that Americans have no life but to sit down and watch this garbage.

I hate Big Brother. Get it off the air.

credit card

A piece of plastic that has demonic powers in its abiltity to keep a person in financial slavery for the rest of their life.

A credit card is donomic and should only be used when absolutely necessary or in an emergency.

69

A Midwestern Interstate that begins (depending on direction of travel) in Indianapolis, Indiana and heads northeast to Fort Wayne, Indiana, Lansing, Michigan and Flint, Michigan before it ends at Sarnia, Ontario, Canada. At present, its total length is just under 400 miles, but an extension down to Texas is in the works.

69 has no scenery whatsoever, unless you like flat cornfields.

lame duck

A politician's inability to do anything of substance.

In his last year of his tenure, President Bush has become a lame duck thanks to obstructionist Democrats in the Congress.
