42. I too am sorry about your husband looking at losing his job
Fri Aug 18, 2017, 05:34 PM
Aug 2017

but I feel the same about the busboys/dishwashers/waitresses/retail clerks/carpenters/steel workers/clerks/i.t. people, and everyone else that is affected by the money changing assholes that keep us all down on the bottom.

Those days are over. Strap in for the long ride down.
