This thread upsets me. I know nothing about this man. But years ago I had someone help me who is considered a mean person in my area. A man threaten to call the FBI on him and the next day the guy was cut in half with a machine gun. But when me and my husband were teenagers and had no place to live, he gave us a place. All we had to do was pay the light bill. He owned a car lot and said we could drive any of them if we needed them. He is old now and lives walking distance from me. As old as I am I still don't understand how someone can be so mean and nice at the same time. His son contacted me a couple months ago looking for my ex. His son has always been very polite. I know his son has killed at least 1 man and got out of prison last year for attempted murder. He shot up a man's house so bad, it had to be torn down. The guy jump into the fireplace and survived the shooting.

My company closed 14 years ago and I have no contact numbers for my old bosses. 1 is dead but my work history spoke for itself.
Bank robbery with a weapons is a violent crime. If a person like that can get a job bad credit is nothing.

We have all colors. But the company stresses good attendance. That where a lot of people struggle to keep a job. We've had meetings since I was hired. The supervisor was clear that it's a business and we are all there to make money. We have too many people in my dept. A couple of my coworkers look at me when they say it. What they don't realize is I was hired to be trained for the day that they point out. We had two out this week and that's in 4 days.

The judge sets child support when people divorce. The state can't set child support when the mother doesn't know who the dad is or his DNA test revealed he is not the father, or she doesn't know enough about him to have an address or phone number. By conditions, I don't mean she won't work. I mean at baby #2 being born on welfare, the tubes get tied.

Where I work we have people on parole. I know drug charges, embezzlement, bank robbery. One did 20 years and one 13 years. We have more felons. If bad credit kept people from working, most would be at home. I had a coworker tell me she owes the govt about 13,000. Use your friends as a reference. Your work history speaks for itself. In my interview I was asked what's the longest I've worked for a company. Teenagers should be the only ones who struggle with that. In rural areas having a car is just being responsible. It might only be a $1500 clunker but it's transportation.
A lot of these issue have nothing to do with finding employment. It's an issue of being unemployable.

My point was these women weren't in a serious enough relationship for the man to leave. Most don't get childsport or even know who dad is. They don't have the mentality to properly raise a child but having a bunch of them. They want gov't support and it should come with condition.

250,000 jobs added in oct. Wages up 3.1% The great economy keeps growing.

The men leave from where? Most of these types get pregnant while living with grandma. They move into section 8 when they have so many kids that grandma puts them out.

I just paid an extra $1000 principal payment toward my mortgage this morning. I filed for divorce. My ex would come walking through my house when he wasn't even supposed to be in the county. When you are a decent person, getting a divorce isn't as easy as those who are always needing something.

I think trumps numbers would be higher if we knew the real number. I know in my area a ton of places are hiring that weren't hiring before. I could have worked today but didn't volunteer. Good jobs are important. Temp services were also driving down wages (benifits). Hopefully this economy will force other companies to provide better benefits and wages. People need a living wage. I think a minimum wage increase is needed. I understand working at McDonald's isn't skilled labor but it's still work. The employees there shouldn't have to work an hour just to buy a value meal for lunch.

Sorry for your loss. Prayers.

Bigotry? A person's source of income says a lot about them. Kids not knowing who their dad is because mom has a parade of men but no jobs, says a lot about a person. Having tax payers to pay your rent, doesn't make you a good tenant. Trust me, landlords know the kids will be destroying the property while mom is piled up in bed with whatever man is available that day.
Funny thing is these types wonder why non of those men want to marry them. They think the govt supporting them is independence. The men know they want to go from one source of support to another, with no plans for a job or future.

My grandson was 3 weeks late starting school because he was waiting on his birth certificate in the mail. American citizens are tired of the liberal b.s.

The whores wouldn't get section 8 if they weren't screwing men that wanted them for nothing more. Then the govt has those illegitimate kids to support until they are 18. That doesn't make them good tenants. They are crappy human beings and most care more about a man than their kids. The man who knocks then up is sleeping in a home paid for by tax payers and eating the food from the foodstamps and then into next baby mama. They often have 5 or 6 baby mama's to run between...when they aren't in jail.

Happy Birthday

Sounds like you are in a good place and thinking clearly. My advice would be to casual date. (No sex) Just have fun until you find someone worthy of more.

I'm 46 but hoping for a great 50th. Life only gets better.

There are people of color who get married and become citizens also. Legally is the key point. Let's stop trying to claim people are racist because they don't want millions of illegals pouring into our country.

Under Obama people were running out of unemployment without finding a job. They fell off the unemployed list but still struggled. Some gave up on looking for work.

That's great news. It will eventually add more jobs and hopefully higher wages, as employers compete for good workers.

No

They just ask if they can speak English on at least 5 different documents. What language they speak at home.
I write my phone, dad's number, and 3 other contacts for my daughter. Amazing that your child has never brought home any of these form. Liberal dodge.

Liberals are also claiming that these dreamers are gainfully employed. Ice has been to where I work and deported illegals. I've filled out the paperwork and had a background check. These illegals commit crimes using fake ss #. At what point do we consider them criminals?
