Ahhh... ghostchild. For me, employment is part of my freedom. Ask an unemployed man how free he feels, and he will tell you about the shackles of hunger and poverty.
We're no longer a society that can live off the land. The landed is all deeded and there is little sense of community among people anymore. Sad to say, but we have made money the means by which we acquire the necessities in life. Hence, my job grants me more freedom than the poverty of unemployment can.
The trick is to achieve a proper balance between those hours you spend toiling and those hours you spend in play, reflection, and rest. It is when you achieve that balance that you will find peace in your days and joy in your heart.
Trucking can be like a bad marriage...

Hi, check this out...
Let's say if I had 20,000 million dollors in my account....
I would not want to be employed by anyone...
But I would still stay busy...I would buy land, work it, I'd buy a ranch with animals...I'd take pilot lessons...I'd buy a small submarine...

I'd buy a submarine like this and explore lagoons and lakes...I'd offer tours...
Believe me...I'd keep busy...
But your right, in this society others have constructed for us...it's all based on the dollor...all of your worth is tied up in your ability to generate income...
If Satan were a Billionare...people would love him...if an angel were poor and broke...people would shove it aside...
Anyhow...if I ever get my submarine...we'll go for a ride...
Ducks Thanks this. -

Freakin' SAD man.
(He started it mom and dad...I never implied anything about them...
I was simply sharing ideas and thoughts about the relationship between employee and employer...)
(which side does the name calling always come from first?)
(who always hits who first?)

This thread here, is about people, concepts and ideas...about how we react to certain situations in the work place...it's about sharing..releasing frustrations in a story telling type of manner...
And all that poster can do...never mind the ideas on here, the wonderful photos, all they can do is concentrate on my percieved sexual orientation...
Whatever my orientation is...why would they, of all the other things on here to add or share...why would they only want to concentrate on that??
I mean I don't remember bringing anything about sexual orientation up on here....so why is that where there mind is??
I mean why not add something to the theme of the thread...and that is the relationship between employer and employee..
Instead...now they want to make this whole thread about what they think my sexual orientation is...
I mean if I'm not asking you out on a date (laugh) or trying to flirt with you...then why are you concerned about my sexual orientation????????
Why not be concerned about my finances as well? or my tax rebate, or my diet or the state of my spirituality....why ignore all the other areas of my life...and only concentrate on what you think my sexual orientation is???
Please tell me...I want to know...what is it about you...that made you respond that way???

I mean after all...your the one that brought it up...not me...Last edited: Oct 4, 2009
