    CONTINUED:

    1) Many members of a certain gender, let's just come out and say it----women feel that moving things, boxes, etc., is "not for them." Many boxes weigh 1-10 pounds.

    a) You say you are not capable of moving them?
    b) Yet you can go to a shopping mall and carry out 15 bags of merchandise?!? i've seen this first hand.

    You want equal pay? Dream on.

    Thus, my contention that ALL CUSTOMERS SHOULD DIE , is affirmed.

    Does your logic apply if you are a man that identifies as a woman?

    We should examine this factor. Briefly:
    1) i actually know a few transpeople (one of them is a driver) and to me, if a "man" identifies as woman, and attempts to appear and live as woman (not merely a male proclaiming that they are female in order to gain benefits or make a political statement), then to me, for all practical purposes, this person IS a woman. And yes, many/most of the unfortunate and fortunate female traits carry over. Thus, my logic does apply in this case.

    2) However, most "men" today are not men----they too are afraid to touch boxes, are lazy, and do not have the same gusto as the WW2 generation. This is why society is in the toilet.

    Ooh, touched a nerve! This is a pretty common topic among the voices in my head :-D I really think that being raised by the WW1 generation, surviving the Depression and all the other things that went on in that time period, made for a better work ethic, and sheer mental toughness, among other things. They don't call it the greatest generation for nothing. I aspire to be half the man my grandfather was.

    It's good for you though. It builds your experience, which builds your abilities, which builds your self confidence. Besides, it's good for your moral character.....:confused::D

    Oh come on, admit it now. There are likely several kids that your really WOULD like to run over!:biggrin_25523:

    Or as my granddad used to say, "This new generation, (speaking of my own dad's generation,) is sending this country to hell in a handbasket!:biggrin_2554:

    Now I can see this as a most definite double edge sword! Team cheerleaders = GREAT. Team = not so much!:biggrin_25512:
    And what are the hospital shuttles all about? Is that school really that tough on the students there?:biggrin_2552:

    I'll kind of be a jack of all trades, which will be good for me honestly. Not the same routine day to day.
