Too Many Idiots

McDonald's workers protest low wages, more than 100 arrested
May 21 (Reuters) - More than 100 demonstrators seeking better pay for McDonald's workers were arrested on Wednesday as protesters swarmed the fast-food chain's corporate campus near Chicago demanding a minimum wage of $15 an hour and the right to unionize.

If these people feel there skill is worth $15.00 an hour thay need to go find a job "WILLING" to pay them that. What a bunch of entitled losers!

I am a loser as well. Twenty years ago I worked as a taxi driver and my wage was 4 euros an hour. Complicated life circumstances forced me to do that job for quite a long time.

I'm also a loser, of course. Tossing boxes into the UPS truck on a loading dock...tossing 100 pound bags of chemicals around in a factory, for shit wages.

Oh c'mon HK, he doesn't much care about anybody's life circumstances, or how some insinuation he blurts out without thinking, might impact somebody. How dare anybody do what they can to earn a living wage.

By my estimation, about 95% of the human race are losers under Dans premise.
The vast majority of us work for someone else and have been getting shit on for the last forty years, with the kneepad wearing right leading the Walmart cheer.

Open your eyes, Dan. We losers are getting tired of the goat rope. We're breaking out the pitch forks and torches. The self made man had better run and hide 'cuz the fat guard and decorative gates protecting his elitist bastard neighborhood can't keep us Great Unwashed out forever.

Oh, happy day. I hope the gathering storm turns into a world-wide hurricane..........

Dave

Ain't nothin' wrong about an honest day's work for an honest day's pay.

When my family's circumstances brought us hard times.... I scrubbed toilets at the local campground. I suppose some might think that kind of work is demeaning, but it kept food in the table and a roof over our heads.

Yes a temporary job not a career choice.

Im not talking anything about demeaning and I don't think any job falls into that term.

A job a McDonnell's is what I did in high school. It's a job for new workers to get into the work force. Not for a job to raise a family with, buy a house and career path. The problem is there are many people that don't try to improve themselves.

By my estimates $15.00 per hour is 85% higher than the world population makes per day.
