    I think that is the same as anyone that no longer likes their job.

    How close am I to retirement?
    Should I quit or get another job first?
    Delay an announcement and get ready to relocate?

    Just because they still did not physically walk off the job does not mean that they do not plan on it.


    It is going to get worse.

    It's the ones that can't hack it are the ones always blaming external factors... And you're no different...

    The difference between Conservatives and Liberals who don't make it is that Conservatives blame the government and Liberals blame Capitalism.... And the reality is that you just couldn't hack it... Maybe you made bad choice. Maybe you're not good at networking... Maybe you didn't play the game to your stengths but at the end of the day it's not the corporations or the government... It's you.

    Please, liberals blame anybody they can reasonably or unreasonably blame. Maybe safer to say difference between you and country boy. If this is about the small businesses that shut down over the last year, that is because they are not made to withstand 1.5 years of shutdown. How bad of shape would the big box stores be in if they were made to close for that amount of time? All stores every state, taxes, inventory going bad or out of style, utilities, pensions, and so forth. They might have made it, but they probably would have gotten bailed out.

    That is the most ridiculous and elitist statement that I have ever heard on this forum.
    What you are saying is that only rich people should have business and the lower class should not. They are not going to start with the same assets.

    I really cannot even tell you how stupid and anti-American you are. Minority and especially Hispanic businesses have led small business start ups and are creating the most jobs. Your voting for large corporations to kill them and that is probably with an import. Say hello to the unemployment line America. Invictus wants to be an idiot.

    Nothing is going to be solved regarding this epidemic of violence in our neighborhood streets (assault, battery, theft, arson, murder). The Democrats, lunatics if ask me, are electing these District Attorney's with a record of biased ideological religion (or cash) to not prosecute the individuals committing crimes.

    The criminals know this, how come the 'woke' don't know this?

    It's the same thing over and over, this time in NY. Mob attacks car, car tries to leave, people jump in front banging on car. The car leaves the area, and those cops detain the driver. I don't want brain damaged cops on the street. If they won't arrest the ones attacking the cars to begin with, who needs them.

    Update, the 39 year old was arrested or detained, let go without being charged. The police drove him away from the area and just let him go without even booking him or referring him to the DA office. So the truck driver called the police for nothing except them helping him escape responsibility.
