I quoted, in a nutshell, what I am saying to my wife about 3 days a week.
Everybody wants their stuff now, and it seems along with that is the attitude that the rest of the world can go to hell, so long as I get what "I" want, and get it now.
Example: Anyone see those TV commercials that show the guy in line to pay for something, and everone in front of him is using their Credit Card, but he writes a check? They make it look like he is messing everybody up from taking ownership of their item in the next 30 seconds...and they all stand there pissed of because he isn't using X credit card.
What a crock.
I've determined that I AM NOT a "Rat", so there is no need for me to join the "Rat Race" lifestyle.
Ya ever heard the joke about the Old Bull and the Young Bull standing on that hilltop, looking down at a bunch of sexy cows?
Well, I'm the Old Bull.
Damn good thread Kieahtoka. Thanks for the chance to vent!
