They can fork up their garden all they want but they better leave my back forty alone.
Wait until they come after the Mclawyers.
It takes more than a McJob to afford a McMansion.
>>I agree, as far as starter jobs go McDonald’s is a great choice for a teenager who needs some spending cash. I went to high school with a guy who worked there back in ‘81 and he is still there, I think he is a district manager now pulling down quite a nice income.
McDonald’s is all you make of it, if you want to use it to your advantage for what it is.<<
I think that can be true of the service sector in general. Take kids who bag groceries.
I just read about an Ingles grocery manager who started as a bag boy and was making over $100,000 a year.
Unfortunately the reason his salary was in the paper was to make the point that the $7,000 he embezzled was small compared to his salary. He claimed Ingles canceled Christmas bonuses so he stole money to pay the employees himself.
Obviously, stealing is bad, but if he was making $100k in a small town in North Carolina and would steal to help his employees it doesn’t sound like such a dead end, thankless situation.
I worked at McDonald’s when I was fifteen. It wasn’t a lot of money, but it makes quite an impact on you when you realize that the money is yours - not because it’s simply in your pocket, but because you earned it.
I think that's the way it should be too. However the word, 'marriage' was arbitarily re-defined by at least one major dictionary publisher. It now includes the union of homo on homo, or allows for that definition.
Co-incidentally, that happened at the same time the Mass. Supreme Court re-defined the word, 'marriage' to include homo on homo as well.
Therefore, of course, if it's legally defined in the dictionary as homo on homo, it's legal.
As I said. the timing was just a co-incidence. Uh huh.
It's typical corporate arrogance. These people believe that the DMCA enables them to walk on water, compared to which changing cultural history to suit themselves seems like a lesser miracle.
