I won't be ignoring you if you reply btw I'll just be doing something slightly more interesting like practicing onanism into a wet flannel.

Re: I've reached a whole new rudeness level on the job front
I think some are being deliberately harsh on TE's choice of words. I more or less said the same thing first - I am very troubled by the fact that now the only work I am able to find is stacking shelves, part-time and casual. I do not look down on people who do this job, we all have different reasons for doing the job we do, all jobs have an intrinsic value and make a necessary contribution. Perhaps "degrading" was not the right word to use but hey it's a forum and we all at times probably type things without always thinking if that was exactly the right choice of words. I just think because TE is a stronger more outspoken person than I am that she has received a lambasting and I did not.
I get exactly where she is coming from and I believe if you read the post in the spirit in which it was intended as I am sure all who read the post could choose to do ... or perhaps chose not to.
TE doesn't need me to stand up for her, she is more than capable of fighting her own battles, I just think that this was more about who the posters involved are rather than the issue itself. I'm a bit over all this bitching and sniping that I read here, there are more important things in life to concern ourselves about.

Anybody can claim to be anything they want to be online so it doesn't matter in the slightest. Ideas and personal experience can be of interest and use at times, but the rest I'd take with a pinch of salt.
