I have a job posting w/ the Texas Work Force Commission starting @ $12. an hr. Guess how applications I have gotten.

Okay, the flu.....your street is torn up for water pipe repairs, your 3rd girl friend is pregnant, your sister is getting beat up by her aweful x, your drafted, break a leg,

ah shit man, it goes on forever. How much living have you done since 17?

Statistically most men/women can not work 100% all year.

No one should be able to raise a family with a dickhead attitude like yours fuck you dick.

Mmm Maybe try a add in the paper?

More than I care to admit.

But, I've enjoyed every minute of it.

I got a drive ahead of me...have a good day all.

I seriously dont get why yanks think they are living in the golden country-my fuel costs about 6 bucks a gallon us,my rents 400 a week but I still get a decent living regardless

of course we get paid a decent wage mind you, a teenager at mcdonalds gets 16 an hr- I get 42 an hour fitting towbars

I'm not a millionaire by any means- but I have a house almost paid off, work 38 hrs a week, got a nice car and a boat (and get time to actually use it)

Oh and I recently had a suspect tumor that they suspected was cancer- within a month had it tested, confirmed non malignant (thank the flying spaghetti monster), was cut out and it all up cost me 150 bucks

I hear of people being bankrupted by medical costs in the states and I seriously wonder- why the fuckin hell does anyone actually choose to live there- my experience from media and online over the last twenty years is that you have to be insane to actually want to live or work there....

660$ per week? Here, in Portugal my mom receives 485€ per month!

People, you seem to have overlooked that the jo is "Shovel operator". No American in their right mind would do that kind of work for $12 hr.
2 years ago when employment of illegals wasnt so illegal this job would not even last 2 days before being filled for the same payrate or less.

OP, good luck finding that 1 in a million american worker who can do a good job.

And are you blaming the Fed for that? Because that's who has causes the relentless increase what things cost.

Blame the Fed, and only elect politicians who promise to end the Fed.

But you probably thought Ron Paul was a crackpot, right? And Gary Johnson, would never get your vote, right?

People today, with practically 0 knowledge of history or economics, or common sense, really, take it for granted that the price of bread has to rise year after year after year.

Have you ever wondered why it rises in price? Really, what causes the price to increase?

Is farming more or less efficient than it was 50 years ago? Much, much more efficient.

Is transportation more or less efficient than it was 50 years ago? Even though the price of gas has gone up, total transportation efficiency is much higher.

So is bread 1000% of what it was in 1970?

You and everyone else is getting royally screwed by the Fed and other central bankers worldwide.

Folks here he is...It's Rush Limpballs himself, the Side-steppest man in show biz....

what's wrong Rush, simple math to hard for ya??

How's that whole "Occupy" thing working out for ya ?

You're a fraud. Federal and Texas minimum wage is 7.25/hr. 2 times min wage is 14.50. [link to www.dol.gov]

this whole thread reminds me of social experiment proving how lazy,unmotivated,greedy and just plain fucked our sociaty has become.

He's paying what he can afford to pay. My wife works for 7.25 an hour, and we get by. 12 an hour isn't bad at all, for a job that essentially doesn't have education requirements. I have a 4 year degree, and graduated with high honors from a fairly decent law school, and I would GRATEFULLY take this job, if I lived in Texas. Hell of a lot better than the pathetic job search I do now. This economy sucks. But complaining about a decent job is idiotic.

Is it easy to survive on 12 an hour in this economy? NO. Can it be done? YES. Is it better than not working at all? Absolutely.

Good for you OP. as you can see from the hateful responses, if it isn't a handout then many don't want it.

But good for you on sticking up for yourself and your business. And one more thing. Thank you for being a hard working American and building opportunities for others along the way.

I own two small businesses and posted an ad on Craigslist and on Monster for each.... now, these are two totally different type of jobs for to totally different companies.... one position it took 4 months to fill and we received a total of 5 resume in 4 months the person we hired is good but not great and our ad still remains active.

The other position is entry level and to date it remains OPEN!


so if anyone is in the Upstate NY are and needs a job hit me up..lolol

no fuck you....he is right.

ditto

Midland? Go work in the oil field.

If I lived in Texas and needed a job, I'd be all over it. At least until I could do better.

OP, the tard dominating the thread with their "question" is the exact reason this country is beyond repair. Some people think if they can't live like fat cats with no skills or school than it's their right to suckle the tax tit dry.

Makes me fuckin sick.

And to answer ACtard's question, yes I could live off 29K a year if I had to without a drop of government gravy. But then again, I'm not some whining pussy.

nothing in soif west okrahoma , lol even the mexicans have given up on standing round the big box stores out here

You will be a good little nwo patsy

Two years ago I paid off all credit card debt while renting an apartment and buying a new Chevy Malibu while making 34k in Texas. Difference is it was 40 hour work weeks in a nice air conditioned office... but point is 34k is a livable wage

please unpin this stupid thread

This is OP:



This is anyone who commented, other than me:



And this is for all of you morans:



Please go look at another thread and stop posting to this one now!
