[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There's a story in the NY Times about the dramatic decline in fortunes of some workers following the collapse of USAID. This is not to be harsh, but if you were making $272,000 a year at a nonprofit, and now you're interviewing for $19-an-hour retail jobs, isn't that a clear indication from the broader job market that you were overpaid? People over here are drastically disillusioned by how tax receipts support their cushy lifestyles off the backs of hard working Americans. The rest of us make much less. [b]Some of the posts here are nauseating: “Omg we have to share an office.” “Omg we have to write an email.” “Omg we actually have to go to the office.” “Omg we should never be laid off as government employees that’s for civilian pions”[/b][/quote] Agree. Sooooo much entitlement. [/quote]
