Don't be a dick.

Good for you haloman. Keep working hard, it is rewarded, glad to see someone getting along and being happy about it.
thanks kinetic, same thing i was thinking. not everyone needs to be driving a new lamborghini or ferrari, or even for that matter a bmw, and living in the posh area of the burbs to think they're doing all right, and thank god for them...

good for you man, keep working hard and maybe soon you will be the boss



i dont think GH was being a dick, IMO hes right, i think its not possible to live on 10-12 bucks an hour, especially a single man or woman living on their own, never mind with a child or something, we work for basically slave pay and IMO its bullshit. minmum wage should be 13-15 dollar sper hour MINIMUM not fucking 7.50 (that min. wage where i am) how the fuck can people live on 7.50 per hour? give me a break, i know i couldnt

the problem i see with minimum wage being say $15 an hour is that a happy meal at mcdonalds would now cost you $25.. pretty much everything would go up in relation to the increase in minimum wages as businesses aren't just going to pay more in wages and lose all that in profits, so naturally pretty much every product would go up in price..
my $.02 at least..

Awesome man. Hard work will get you places. Knowing how to use your hands is a noble and dying trait.

Congrats, hard work does pay off, stay motivated and respect the work you turn out, I've been with my company a year at the end of this month, busted my ass and I got a promotion and a raise... remember stay motivated!!

this is a very valid point, but in the end i think if we all made more, when things went up in price it wouldnt seem maybe SO bad because that extra cash at the end of the week would be alot more than usual...in the end what it comes down to is corporations and ceos and the like are stealing all the real profits and keeping it for themselves while leaving the man at the bottom of the totom pole with nothing, buying 1 dollar cheeseburger and praying the gas dont go up to 5 dollar per gallon
