how do people like this survive? she worked at meijer for six months about 3 years ago. She took her STNA classes and hasnt even applied for a job. Now she's taking some medical assistant class and all she does is bitch about her classwork. I said, "why dont you get a job?" she said "I go to class 3 days a week" I almost fucking lost it. this pisses me off so bad, but instead of yelling at her again, i just decided to post it here.
not really. her family is lower middle class and they all have jobs. I guess they failed to cut the cord
Probably using the classes as an excuse to not get a job- which she likely wouldn't try for even in the absence of school... could be her family is pushing her to do something but are accepting the school excuse because they don't have the heart to put her out. Not doing her any favors though- it's just enabling her to continue "guilting" her sustenance out of others. Pissing and moaning about the class work tells me she's just lazy and has absolutely no real intent on changing her own lot in life. She probably thinks that's someone else's job to render the service that she feels entitled to.
In reality we are all just jealous of the fact she has a decent life and doesn't have to work. In the end it's hurting her, but if she's taking a medical assistant class, even if she in the end just gets a CNA, she'll get a decent job no matter what. Then we'll be complaining how the girl who did nothing has a good job. Life blows. *edit* Rolling my eyes to jumping to welfare kid as the first assumption, especially considering most people on welfare work. This is America, we let our people die vs giving them health care in the name of hard work, you can't live on welfare in America.
I would respectfully submit that in my opinion, her's is not a life of any quality. there's no way in hell I'd want to be depending on others to survive no matter what the perks. Clearly her standard of a worthwhile existence differs greatly from mine. Life is what you make of it and a great determiner of how much life blows is how you mentally process the shit you have to deal with. Most peoples hells are in one way or another their own handiwork.
Everyone has their own level of a sense of entitlement, I don't really think it should be a source of scorn though, she's just a product of her environment after all. I'm sure your life seems very privileged to some and many things are taken for granted that some poor boy in China only dreams about.
fine for her i go to school AND work AND enjoy it. i'm setting myself up for success. by the time i'm her age i will be head and shoulders past where she is now.
lol, 10 am is sleeping in! just had to comment on that one. :coffee: is this the girl you were so madly in love with like 2 years ago?
I like self employment...work when I want and sleep when I want...and surf the web during my 50 breaks a day
Really the question is if she's happy why are you knocking her? It doesn't seem to be jealousy over her ability to do absolutely nothing in life and be happy with it.
its not that late when i work til 8pm and no its not her. I still live with and love the girl you aare talking about. We are getting married in about a year. we will have been together 4 years at that point. she's not happy. she complains about everything.
