OK, gotta go. If I have offended anyone, I apologize. I just wanted to be provoked into "thinking" more than "feeling".

Another oops, "any more sophisticated than reality television."
Aracollections 07:24:00 PM Mar 25 2009
Funny that I expected blogging not to be any more sophisticated the Reality Television. DON't HATE ME BECAUSE I ENJOY ANALYTICAL AND INTELLECTUAL DISCOURSE

What good comes of envy? Would we not be better served by asking more questions than we make presumptions. What price are we willing to pay for job security? What sacrifices will we make today for our children tomorrow? How are each of us held accountable and still free to pursue our individual dreams?Villifying people without any legitimate transgression upon others disparages us all.

Are you really suggesting that MOST workers care about a companies profitability more than their own pay Chiara2? Because when I showed my 28 employees the monthly profit and loss statements, they did NOTHING to control portion size, or reduce energy costs, are take better care of company proerty. I meeting after meeting as a teacher I saw EVERYONE toss aside the budget without so much as a glance. At UPS I listened to people bash upper management daily with NO IDEA how profitable or not the company was that month or year.

OK. Please allow me to expand on my thoughts. I was a teacher for 8 years and enjoyed the benefit of union security. During this time, student supervision on the yard and in the cafeteria was nil. While I offered to volunteer my recess and luch to provide adequate supervision NOT 1 other teacher in 120 was willing to do so, stating invariably "that's not my job" to which I responded "if the welfare of these students is not your job, then what the hell is?" So how could I be so stupid as to become an employer? I wanted to be the kind of generous employer my own father was.What I didn't realize was the animosity I would garner for having worked for and saved enough money to buy it.
