    Default Why?? <RANT>

    Why do people come on here day in and say out and make a thread about how bad they need a job, and how broke they are because they have no job, etc, etc.....?

    Have any of these people ever thought if they would pry thier ass away from IA and look on AJC's website, Monster Jobs, Hot Jobs, Local papers, employment agency, or even go door to door they would find a job? I get so sick of seeing people on here whine "Ohhh I have had no job for 1 month.. Help me...." etc, etc... Get your lazy ass's off the computer and go out and find one. There are PLENTY of jobs in Atlanta and surrounding area's.

    If you want to work, get off your ass and get a job, if you dont want to work, dont waste our time posting about how bad you need a job.

    I would tend to say a EASY WAY OUT more then anything, And I am all for people asking thier friends if they know of anything, we all have done it, But for people like some I have read in the recent days and months where they say they have been out of work for a month, PLEASE!! Get your lazy non working ass up, and find a job, dont ask IA to do it for you.

    I can see a week you may ask your friends, but after 5-7 days, your ass needs to take your situation into your own hands and not rely on the EASY WAY OUT....

    I know they dont here, But I grew up in Miami and if you went through your Jr. High, you could work at 13, and thats what I did. It was a work program, got me out of class at 1:00 each day

    YAY!!! A thread dedicated to me! It's funny cuz everyone knows what my thoughts are on this subject. Now all the I NEED A JOB! threads all include my name in the damn title, lolol. I hate that shit, too. I really don't care for the online job hunt, either. That's the lazy man's way out. I've always learned that an employer will respect a man more for physically going out to look for a job than he will someone who sits and calls all day for one. That shows laziness. Oh well. Great post, dude. Later, QD.

    Most of the places that do this(Home Depot, Wal-Mart) have the online-apps go to a Human Resources Dept at corporate and they decide and contact the store and you. But, yea, it can disconcerting when you see a manager not seem to give a dman. Later, QD.

    i have my fair share of tickets but like you said brett if you did it just own up to it and pay the fine...too many people cry...i mean i understand if you truly are getting a ticket for an offense you didn't commit but the people who come and say "well i got caught speeding and i think he misspelled my name....can i fight this?"

    Yeah cause 98% of the tickets people come on here and bitch about are ones that are actual reasons to geta ticket, they they either say its racial or the cop didnt like his/her car... Instead of just saying "I got a ticket, I fucked up, I will pay the fine"
