i guess death would be no good. best case is a long hospitalization, followed by debilitating illness, and gradually decline into state of complete disability.

Hopefully he has severe symptoms resulting in painful disability, and all of his family die around him, while cursing his name. Thank you Jesus for sending this disease to him and his wife, and the clear message to the world that evil will fall at your hands. Amen.

how can a landscaping job be out of the wheelhouse of a landscaping co.?

i understand bidding high if you dont really want the job or esp. if u dislike the client. some call it “the asshole tax”. but to come out, spend 2 hours, promise to get a bid over and ghost me? seems odd…not just 1 or 2 times. many times…

[quote=svelte]No need for an apology. Things are truly strange right now.

If it makes you feel any better, I’m still convinced things get a little better, a little fairer all the time though sometimes it doesn’t feel that way.

I’ve been doing a lot of reading in old newspaper (they are archived online now and easy to search) and some of the stuff that happened 100 years ago shocks me when I read it, even though I know from history books that things like that happened. The papers reported them like it was no big deal.[/quote]

no. I wasn’t implying anything to anyone. I was just ranting. not eve sure what i was saying. Not sure anyoen knows what they’re saying anymore. Not sure anything means anything anymore.

i think I was being rudely sarcastic, in response to flyer saying, “everyone should live the life they dream of”, after spending a lifetime in a strong union, at the same time period as unions dissolved and were weakened across the country, making the exhortation to lvie your dreams, uncompromised, less possible.

It gave me that young person feeling that boomers like to say pull yourself up by your bootstraps as they pull the ladder up behind them generally sprinkled with a christian I’m blessed/saved edge of righteousness and semi-condescension.

But that’s just me, ultimately, being irritable. better go meditate today.

i apologize.

i think evangelicals and u.s. christians are generally opposed to unions, I’ve been reading. not sure how they got there, but they find support in the bible; striking is somehow stealing, i think, is the argument…so the politcal strength of envandies and union demise go hand in hand.

i really truly am starting to get creeped out by the usa. i know people say it idly, but i would definitely consider leaving if I can find a good plan b…

I retired from American before 60 thanks to real estate. Another reason to have a “Plan B.”[/quote]

Well that explains how you’ve done it – pilots make a great living. If you’ve got perfect eyesight and are over 6 feet tall, you’re eligible to attempt a career as a pilot.

I would have never been eligible.

Many of my current and former neighbors are pilots. One of them, an American pilot, rarely ever worked. He always opted for the standby slots and was home almost all the time. Downside: he could never drink because he didn’t know if he’d be called in. Sometimes us neighbors would watch their kids overnight for them (his wife was a nurse). They were great people so we didn’t mind, but he sure made a lot of money for not much work.[/quote]

Dang unions. Providing flyer a good life. No more of that! Capital supreme, labor eat poo.

Would be better to feel free ones whole life indeed. Ive been so worried about my place in society so long its difficult to imagine not worrying.

Thats perhaps the dream of retirement. That you no longer have to care what the marketplace thinks of you. No more worrying about your performance.. . Youre just a free old weirdo.

But then…thats possible at any moment. Just…stop caring…
