Gabbard: I am not a Russian asset
Also Gabbard: WE NEED TO END THESE CRIPPLING SANCTIONS
Probably my bias, but "I am not a Russian asset" almost sounded sarcastic.
Anybody here want to teach school? They face difficult conditions and they aren't paid jack sh-t.
Joe sounds awful
Sorry but that is just wrong. I know in an ideal world with proper conditions that is how it is supposed to be but in the real world it couldn't be farther from the truth. Unless you think the 40 year old working at Speedway wants a career in putting donuts in the case. These jobs aren't starter jobs...they are "needed to get above the poverty level" jobs. Not every job is a career...
You are basically punishing anyone who can't find a "real job" and saying they don't deserve the right to a living wage.
And ya know...maybe if businesses hadn't been fighting this for years they could have better prepared. It isn't the workers fault the cost of living went up.
And don't give the sad internet rebuttal about "unfilled jobs" that is on the business not the worker. Make the job worth working. Offer benefits and pay that make people want to work for you. If people would rather work at McDonald's that means you're job sucks.
And a lot of it is on the populace (and no, I am NOT singling out Millennials here, that I promise you). Who wants to grow up and be an HVAC person, or a plumber, or a construction worker, despite the good pay? Face it, society, as a whole, thinks lesser of someone's knowledge (and maybe even work ethic/acumen) if they say they are a plumber vs Senior Manager at [insert company]. We need to change that stigma.
Again, this is anecdotal, but I run my own warehouse building even though I am not considered management, I make enough to have a decent living/etc, and when I say my job title, I get some looks, like I am not reaching my potential or something. Tell ya what, I'm happy as hell doing what I do.
Holy ****ing ****.
I think Biden is going to have a stroke after that. Oh man, warren fights dirty.
I missed it. What happened?
