A power house? Maybe in the future.

The problem is that to really have the economic recovery, they needed the government to get the heck out of the way.

But governments need to control, and the more control you allow, the more they need.

I prefer to depend on myself, dont need a stinking safety net of social safety. Get the hell out of my way and watch what a determined man can do. That attitude is what made the USA the self reliant country it became. Not some gooberment that said "its OK to fail, we are here to pick you up and make you feel better"

The problem with the title of this thread is to help you find a job. Problem is, I dont think you really want one. There is no reason for you to actually get a job.

Maybe if you were actually hungry because you didn't have money to eat, that would be a good reason to actually try to find a job. But dragging down 15 bucks an hour unemployment for stupidity on your part........only in Canada.

d PS, might not want to let them know you were drinking on the job.....

I will be honest about that beer... had it after work, on an unpaid luchbreak.

Since when has the USA been self reliant ?
Your getting that mixed up with Canada.

Turn of your oil imports, and see what happens .
You can't even have a trade surplus for many years.
(importing more then exporting) .
Trade deficit also equals buying more then you can afford.

Your on easy street now Danny Boy.
But, it took UK Guy, only his job, to leave your country.
I had 1 aunt, and 1 uncle moving back to Germany (from the USA), for retirement purposes, since the country (US), where they worked all thier lifes, didn't take care enough for them in retirement.

Yes, they should have had union jobs, then that wouldn't have happened.
Just, you have more people then union jobs.
Ok, maybe set money aside - that they did. Enough to bulid a new life in Germany (sold thier home), etc.

UK guy needed to go back, because he knows his wife is taken care of, with no extra costs. Can't blame him.
But, it's a shame.

A country should look after it's own people now and then. Even if that means more taxes. You never know, 1 day it will hit close to home.

Problem with a country looking after its own people like a baby sitter is that they they expect the country to do it all for them.

The government that takes care of everything for its people also has the power over those people to take it all away.

As far as living on easy street, that is interesting. I love the way you have such insight into areas you dont have a clue about.

Easy street is consuming a beer while in service (you were not off the clock, you were on break) and losing your job. Then spend endless days posting on a site about your worldly wisdom on all thing.

IF you were such an expert on all things, you would have never been in a position to be fired. It was just plain stupidity on your part(for which a good case has been made), regardless of the post by others that you did nothing wrong.

Does this mean you are becoming a farmer or is this a hint at what the actual job is going to be?

Yes, I did 095.

I think it went really well.
2 men interviewing me, had to do an apitude test... math, and adresses, etc... every page had a time limit (1 minute, up to 3 minutes).
They had a stop watch .

But, besides that a few good laughs, and UPS being so close job related... talked about that too (scanners , cods, cash, etc). and heavy loads, and so on.

I'm 1 out of 5 now.

But, have to wait until they check my references, and criminal backgroud check.
And hopefully, they choose me.

It didn't paste and copy right... was 195th avenue !
(I live 167 Ave and 66 Street).. we got a good modern road system here.

And yes, people from this City of Edmonton are called Edmontonians !

Same as Calgary (Calgarians).

Vancouver is even better : Vancouverites.

Anyways , picked up my 50 lbs of potatoes... fresh out of the earth... Got to love that.
Was only a 10 min drive.

2 men interviewing me, had to do an apitude test... math, and adresses, etc... every page had a time limit (1 minute, up to 3 minutes).
They had a stop watch .

But, besides that a few good laughs, and UPS being so close job related... talked about that too (scanners , cods, cash, etc). and heavy loads, and so on.

I'm 1 out of 5 now.

But, have to wait until they check my references, and criminal backgroud check.
And hopefully, they choose me.
Uh oh, now he's gonna be delivering pkgs wearing bright yellow.

And yes, people from this City of Edmonton are called Edmontonians !

Same as Calgary (Calgarians).

Vancouver is even better : Vancouverites.

Anyways , picked up my 50 lbs of potatoes... fresh out of the earth... Got to love that.
Was only a 10 min drive.
And you my friend, are a Canidiot! LOL, sorry, couldn't resist.
