If it wasn't for unemployment, I'd be in the streets right now. And yes, as you can see from my blog, I don't spend 8 hours every day searching for jobs. I have a life. I also refuse to work for McDonalds or some menial job after coming from a relatively high paying IT job.<br /><br />Awesome post, sir.A Beer for the Showerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17029139745335325356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8494300487817796111.post-35004812339368159482011-04-18T20:34:02.563-05:002011-04-18T20:34:02.563-05:00Really good post, Doc.Really good post, Doc.Chris C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08655640273250716377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8494300487817796111.post-67716588113332501582011-04-18T20:11:56.668-05:002011-04-18T20:11:56.668-05:00Never heard the 'straw man' term before.Never heard the 'straw man' term before.Alphahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10452926880610122478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8494300487817796111.post-41629184427824069342011-04-18T19:08:51.833-05:002011-04-18T19:08:51.833-05:00you have a fine point here, thanks for the rant. ;...you have a fine point here, thanks for the rant. ;)Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12304596718908705463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8494300487817796111.post-24376046810087289032011-04-18T16:53:20.190-05:002011-04-18T16:53:20.190-05:00It was something I didn't know anyway, good to...It was something I didn't know anyway, good to know as a non-US citizen.The Angry Lurkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01227314379603418332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8494300487817796111.post-65699292938419447552011-04-18T16:18:10.491-05:002011-04-18T16:18:10.491-05:00THANK YOU, awesome postTHANK YOU, awesome postGraftedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01428605536773393576noreply@blogger.com
