do you girls care if a guy has a job or not

i've read a fair amount of this page. i've choosen to consider some of the advice about making a contribute to society. you guys may not say it is, but oh well. i've decided for contributing to society developing a politikal outlook and become active in it. i'll go to protest and rally's that support a cause i believe in and when i get my acoustic guitar playing on the street and seeing if people will drop money in my case. i think it's a positive thing to do the things i've just listed. my new outlook is to do things for myself, such as keep playing/writing my music and being myself and not giving a shit who likes my attitude. believe it or not i meet quite a few older women who are married/have boyfriends who say, "i think you'd be a great guy to go out with." i agree with them to. if a girl or a guy doesn't like me for who i am that's their loss not mine and it doesn't bother me that i've been made fun of on this thread cause it's not the first time i've been made fun of. i'm proud of the man i am and that's all that matters. this is all i've got to say for this thread, so peace.

 

What? I have a job at a supermarket, i'm a cashier and bagger.


Edit: Actually I think I can get all of my taxes back at the end of the year because I'm a minor.

 

You aren't being made fun of at all in this thread. You are just being told how it is. You NEED to support yourself, and quit putting your hand out. Your lifestyle isn't anything to be proud of. That lady might want to go out with you, but don't let that your hopes up. Once she finds out how shitty her life would be living off welfare checks she wouldn't want anything to do with you. The statement,"i'm proud of the man i am and that's all that matters." is for people that actually should be proud of who they are, and not just saying that so they feel better about themselves. I really hope you aren't getting any women right now, so you don't feel that your lifestyle right now is actually a good one.

 

i don't get welfare checks, ssi. and fuck yea i like who i am. i don't see anything wrong with me. i don't look at what's bad in life just things to be proud of like a roof over my head, i got some friends (not much, but it's better than none), don't have a girlfriend at the moment and haven't been looking for one. i'm just concentrating on playing music. it's what brings me joy in life. and i'm not missing out on dating girls in missouri anyway to tell ya the truth. most of them want gangster boys or preppy boys. i don't happend to fit into that crowd, but i figure they'd probably make sucky girlfriends. i'm just concentrating on what's good in life insteead of what sux and i don't think there's nothing wrong with that. why should i think of what makes me sad all the time?

 

Dude, work at:

www.MellowMushroom.com see if any of the stores around you have openings...they ENCOURAGE long hair and piercings and alternative styles

 

I'd like to know where all these high paying jobs are going to be created also! If you think somebody working the cash register at McD's deserves $20 an hour then go start your McD's and charge $10 for a burger, $5 for fries and see how long your business stays open. Same thing applies to any job where the skills required can be learned within a day. The reason people earn more money is one of two things. They either spent the time required learning a specialized skill, or they have their nose so far up managements ass that they get special treatment.

 

RE: i've decided for contributing to society developing a politikal outlook and become active in it.

Oh great. So now instead of finding a job you think it's equivalent to go and cuss at the government that pays yer welfare cheque?

And yeah, in your case it is a welfare cheque.

I'm not putting you down, just your attitude and outlook. You're a lazy taker, someone who cares about himself only and doesn't care who he sponges off. You ain't getting far with that attitude.

And one day they might change the rules so that "bipolar disorder" is no longer permissible for SSI. Whatcha gonna do then? Shit, even your case worker is telling you to get a J-O-B.

 

I completely find it a turn off. not that I'm into money, but when a guy doesn't work it makes him look like he's irrisponcible (sp), lazy and not motivated. a total turn off. girls like guys with goals, and atleast some kind of plan for their life. it makes them feel alittle more secure. I made plans to be a stay at home mom way before I met my husband and had a baby, so It would have been kind of a let down if my husband didn't work and I couldn't be home with my baby. it turns me on sooooo much to watch my husband work also. it's so sexy when he's thinking hard trying to fiqure out problems. he looks so cute when he gets that intense face. lol

 

But he does have a game plan and goals with his life. He's gonna get "politically active" and sit around playing his guitar. Hey ladies!

 

Is it just me, or are all the posts in this thread made by people age 18 or under that don't support themselves yet completely irrelevant.

Yoiu may think you know what your future holds, but you can never be sure.

Come back and post after you have gone out into the world and supported yourself for 5 years...who knows? Maybe things will work out as you've planned, but perhaps you will find that you need to take a low paying job to support yourself from time to time.

I can see a lot of people think that no tax money should ever be used to help anyone. To me that is an outrageous viewpoint. SOME people absolutely do need help, SOME people absolutely cannot work, do not have a family to help...what should we do with these people...already many of the homeless are completely schitzophrenic and out of their minds..should we add to their numbers by cutting armless, legless insane people off govt. help?

 

I think govt money should go to support people who truly need help.

Problem is, we have too many needy and not enough money. There can never be enough money. So people who decide "well, I can just leech of SSI" or whatever, like Ol' Dirty Bastard, collecting welfare even though he was making money with the Wu Tang Clan and advising other people to do the same "Come on n---a it's free money!" to me are parasites and vermin

 

I think people who SCAM the sytem are immoral yes, but I find it disturbing that some people do not want to even help the truly needy....

I generally think that people who say that come from fairly priveleged backgrounds "why should the govt. help them when they can just get money from grandma?" etc.

I'm aware of it, if I didn't have a family with some money to help me while growing up/going to school, I would likely not be where I am today.

 

I posted and I'm 19, I have been on my own supporting myself for 3 years.

and I still stand by what I said before. It's not a turnoff unless I'm looking for something serious.

In the case of disability, each sitation varies. I would have to meet and know Joker in person for me to make a judgement call on whether he's capable of working.

I'm not a person who is into making the big bucks. But I can't stand not supporting myself. I could easily get on welfare AND disability believe it or not. But I don't. The feeling of sitting at home all day not providing for myself makes me sick. I feel guilty on days that I'm sick and can't work.

but I also have to agree with the point of view that the gov't kinda sucks and I could see how people would buy into the rightous feeling of getting what they "deserve" from the gov't. I don't think mimimum wage is enough. I don't think I should have to quit my job to get some help when I work almost 50 hours a week and still don't make ends meet. I shouldn't have to quit my job to get health insurance. It IS a fucked up system, but I personally can't take advantage. I might really need the help someday when I have a family.


PS, I'm actually not that bad off for money right now, but I have been. I've cut out every single luxery in my life and had a grocery budget of 20 a week. But I'm not that bad off anymore, thanks to being able to work as many hours as I please (hooray for that )

 

I agree with where you are coming from headymoe..and I know that some people under 18 do support themselves, and I commend them for it..I didn't have to, I'll admit that, but I also wasn't making blanket statements about not giving any money to help anyone, or that everyone who works low wage jobs chooses to do that when I was under my parents care.

 

i tried to read all this then it got crappy... look i'm bipolar type 1, with pyscotic epsodies, boarderline personlity disorder, aixiety, and PTSD.. I'm on seroquel, topamax and lexapro... it sucks ass and im in the process of waiting for SSI... btw way folks it isnt welfare its SOCAIL SECURITY it is what i have woked for in the past not welfare. Different.. mkay?!?


look if a chick won't date you because of issues fuck her, in the meantime try taking a music class get finacil aid or loans just one class so you won't be over loaded. I'm starting school in fall for art but i'm just taking two classes because i get overloaded if i do too much.

you can work part tinme if your on ssi but you can only make i think like 500 dollars a month or something but if if overwhelms you then don't do it. YOU know what you can handle don't let other people pressure you into stuff you can't do thats bullshit. I have people breathing down my back all my time. My last job i had i totally cracked i can't fucking worked it wacks me out. Good luck sweetie.

 

I'd date a guy who didn't have a job, definetely. But if things were serious and we ended up living together, they'd have to get some money in somehow. I'm a big beliver in splitting things 50% like when you go on a date, I like to pay half as well as the guy. Its just me lol! But if I was working my ass off full time and my boyfriend wasn't working, I was literally paying for everything, then I don't know if things would work out.
If you're working full time as a mucisian then thats cool, I mean, if my boyfriend was doing gigs and stuff, then I wouldn't be pissed off at all for them not working. It would literally be financial strain that could cause problems but forgetting about money and just the idea of working........I'd be fine with a guy not working as long as they did something (like you're a musician, that kind of thing)

 

Yeah, what crystall said. If you're moody and like to mouth off at people, don't get a job, you can claim that you being lazy and abusive is a disability.

 

no if you've seen a proffessional and they deem you unable to work u apply for social security you dumbass it isnt as easy as you think it is jackass

 

why are you being so hateful your making me get all bitchy and i don't want to be like that.. why you all pissy about this issue. he asked a question about datibng and your taking it to a different direction? why?

 

Let me tell you from past experience you can find doctors to perscribe you anything or describe you as whatever you ask.

Just because you don't wanna work doesn't mean you should get welfare for life (SSI) based on it.

You don't need a shrink but an attitude adjustment. What do "bipolar" people in third world countries do? Work! Likewise many "bipolar" people here.

Oh I stubbed my toe and have metatarsal impingement syndrome ouch ouch give me a cheque.
