McDonald's workers: 'supersize my check'

[Jeff-Groves]

When I see people older then me working at a McDonalds or Wal-Mart Etc?
I can't help but feel how much We have been let down.
When I see young kids playing on their phones while those older folks work?
I can't help but hope for a major EMP to hit us.

Be careful what you wish for, with no gas, no electricity, no medication, no food and no water, those older folks will be just as boned as the youngsters on their phones.

An EMP is an equal opportunity disaster.

I have been on both sides of the fence. Unless you are self-actualizing, the "perks" of being a manager don't even come close to making up for the stress.

I've been a manager. The kind that is manager in all but name and pay because the actuall manager was too incompetent to do anything on his own.
I've ran the people, ordered material, organised with the other work sections, reviewed plans etc. and than had to listen to that fat idiot boasting how the design part of the company was the only one making profit.
And then I was laid off with a manager level unoficial experiences and not enough official experience to run a sowing machine

But some of us older folk, who grew up without most of the electronic gizmos now commonplace would adapt with much more ease and have a better chance of surviving...

This reminds me of my teaching one of my exes how to cook:
