The horror of a “public servant” needing a second income to keep the household afloat.

I’d love to see the moochette or cankles do an honest day’s labor especially if it involved one on one contact with the lowly masses.

That would cause at a minimum a real stroke for either of them.

Good for the first lady of Maine being responsible and not whining for more money.

I’m for capping governor’s salaries at around 70k for starters.

Back when Bill was governor of Arkansas, I think his salary was low, in the area of $30,000 a year I think?

Can you imagine if Hillary had to wait tables back in the day?

But of course she was a hot shot lawyer in the Rose Law Firm and earned much more than Bill in those days.

Off topic, but Hillary said they were dead broke when they left the White House. She failed to mention that they were dead broke due to huge legal bills Bill incurred, based on the Lewinsky case and the Paula Jones case. They were broke due to Bill’s own bad behavior. But Hillary doesn’t mention that.

Perhaps he could be trained, but I’m afraid that his objective would be to smash as many dishes as possible. But the majority of its business owners would praise him for doing a fine job and having the best of intentions.

I remember when Hillary stiffed the waitress in New York.

At least the waitress was allowed to live.

I’d bet the harridan has had people eliminated for less insults such as paying a tab.

If the wun was my only choice to hire as a dishwasher, I’d see about automating as much as I could.

Hillary waiting tables is as laughable as the notion of either of them working at a real job. Her lawyer work seems to have just been a training ground for learning to be a grifter.

But if she had, it might have given her a better appreciation for those small restaurant owners she and Bill used to stiff by wandering in, having a photo op while eating their stuff, and then walking out without paying.

Sounds like the making of a new reality show.

Not just the lowest paid, but as far as I can see, the best Governor in the nation. By miles. All in the middle of Communist Maine.

Walking out on a restaurant bill has always been unthinkable to me.

Inappropriate, imo.

She has no experience as a waitress, jobs are very hard to come y in Maine so she is taking a job that might have gone to someone who really needs it. And who will say no to the Gov’s wife?

"But of course [Hillary] was a hot shot lawyer in the Rose Law Firm"

Hillary never was a "Hot Shot Lawyer". She only got the job because Bill was governor.

The Governor should have become a congressman. They all end up being millionaires after a couple of terms.

Both Cankles and Moochelle are attorneys..... they both worked when their husbands were in lower office....

Can’t stand either one but they both worked legitimate jobs.... more than I can say about their husbands!

It depends on what “worked” means...both probably drew a check and sat preening in their office.
