yeah, I know what you mean, I hear people bitch about their awful lives and everything is soooo awful for them and heaven forbid that they have 30 hours this week because they have to write a paper for school...seriously, WAH! Get over it.
Yeah...I dunno. I guess my thing is just that..I watched my parents work their ASS off for everything they have, and it didn't exactly kill them. People don't know how to "suffer" with a little dignity anymore. I blame the baby boomers and all their gimme gimme.
I am more attracted to the idea of working hard, working as many hours as I need to get by, but living on my own terms and knowing I earned it...than I am to having things handed to me. I know that sounds backwards, but...there's no personal growth in not earning it yourself. Nobody learns from whining. Everyone has their problems, the chance to earn grace is in how you deal with them.

Or I would kill to ONLY work 40 hours a week?
I can appreciate the first one. If it's actually the second, I'm jealous. I wish I could get more than 40 hours...
