It’s a shame that you get so riled up about things.

I can't control how you ore anybody else reads written text.  The way you hear it in your head is about you and the things you've experienced throughout life.

How?

I agree that my path is no one else’s, and that no path is the same. I do, however, believe that a path is available to everyone willing to sacrifice the necessary self to achieve something greater.

Pretty much. That’s how I worked out of poverty. You must simply sacrifice what you want for what you need.

If my ignorant, inconsiderate, half-mexican ass can do it then it can’t be to far fetched.

Do you think the work the people in the picture above do is not hard?

I’m a programs and process analyst for Tyler Technologies. I also design educational and training programs for Tyler.

I decided a long time ago (while working two jobs, one on a cattle ranch and one in the oil fields) that being on my feet all day and carrying heavy things wasn’t something I wanted to do with my life.…

You are losing yourself in your argument.

I love buying a car from a dealership. I’ve done it three times. Once was a great experience and the saleslady and I are even friends now (way to go Subaru).

The other two were great for very different reasons.

EXTRA!! EXTRA!!

And my whole point, is that if people don’t like working for somebody else, then they can go work for themselves.

This article is seething with anger.

Thank you.

I am super down with a skinwich.

You’re right, almost. There isn’t that big of a barrier. A small business license in my town of 40,000 people costs $25. About 12 years ago a guy known by everyone in town (goes by the name of Slick) got one of those licenses. Then he got a little bit of insurance. Slick was kind of a bum/drunk until he got off the…

There’s to much breading on the Popeye’s chicken sandwich. I like eating chicken with breading only there to hold additional seasonings on. If I wanted all that flour then I would just ask them to fry chickenless batter and give it to me.
