- The Hunt for Virgin Duckies by Frequent Miler. Looking forward to this series of posts, some of the properties look absolutely amazing and might not be a bad redemption option (especially if they are all inclusive of things like safaris).
- Wells Fargo to Roll Out New Compensation Plan to Replace Sales Goals by WSJ. If you work for a financial institution, I’d be interested to hear what compensation plan you’re on.
- Amazon One Of 7 Picked For Online Food Stamp Pilot by PYMNTS. Great news, especially for those in these so called food deserts. Also good to see the government at least trying to get ahead of the curve on this one.
- Free Access to America’s National Parks For Fourth Graders. Four grade teachers can also get free access for field trips as well.
I have seen lots of people who spend their lives feeling bitter toward others rather than just trying to live their own lives and not worrying about other people’s circumstances.
“Also I have seen people at my grocery store use food stamps and then get into big ass SUVs.”
The recurring anecdotal myth. Sort of like UFOs.
I said “I have seen” not “I have heard from other people”
Do you think maybe they stole it? The UFO, I mean SUV?
Probably not. Likely Obama handed it out to them like candy, while getting IRS to throw people that made small mistakes on their taxes into the prison.
If you are going the break the law break it spectacularly and everyone will try to give you a break. If you break it slightly you will get shafted.
Amazon doesn’t sell fresh food. Maybe it does?
All I saw was canned stuff.
Also I have seen people at my grocery store use food stamps and then get into big ass SUVs.
Amazon does sell fresh food in some markets – not surprisingly called Amazon Fresh. I believe it started as Amazon Fresh Express out in Seattle, and it came to my area out here on the east coast in the last 6 months or so.
As for your other point, a few years ago, someone I knew wrote up an article about going to a food bank in her pretty car. Moral of her story was, shit happens, try not to judge.
My second statement was a simple statement of fact. I know what I saw. There was no judgement in that sentence if taken at face value.
Its as inouccuous saying I saw the sun rise in the morning. No one would jump up about that sentence because they have no agenda to defend themselves regarding that.
I have given a friend, who uses food stamps and doesn’t have a working car, a ride to the grocery store. So, the vehicle they get into doesn’t necessarily mean much.
