A lot of folks just can’t wrap their minds around the idea of personally generating income, as opposed to finding somebody to give them a task, in an environment with strict rules and structure (some cannot even go to the restroom except at the appropriate time).
This woman and her dependents could bake pies and cakes and sell them in the neighborhood, if nothing else. Or, she could (heaven forbid) sit with an elderly person, plenty of whom need help since the country is aging. She could learn to sew and do alterations, or take in ironing.
I guess I’m just a b!@tch, cuz I don’t feel sorry for these people at all. They have sucked everything out of us indirectly. I’m furious that I’m expected to fork over part of my hard earned pay to support people who want to take extended paid vacations, and end up surprised that it lasts longer than they thought it would. There ARE jobs out there.
