You're probably ...Thanks Tahoe AC and samizdat. You're probably right about people being brain-washed by Fox and the other extreme radio programs which exist to shock and entertain and not to inform.<br /><br />The fellow who made the derogatory comments about the losers and loafs who subsist on unemployment threw in for good measure that his company has 10 to 15 positions it would love to fill if only there were qualified applicants. I took him up on the offer only to find out that the job was digital design piecework with minimal pay ($100 per graphic design product) and no limit on the amount of time and effort to be expended to achieve their client's satisfaction. I sure the global marketplace may be more than happy to fill his orders, but an educated, experienced American professional could never make a living doing such work.Andrew Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17064192548070679174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10295475.post-368180050731243102011-06-09T12:24:49.821-05:002011-06-09T12:24:49.821-05:00It's pretty much pointless trying to placate t...It's pretty much pointless trying to placate the stoopidity of such people as you've found on Linkedin, etc. "Free unemployment". What a Fox News-brainwashed idiot. The best retort that I've used in conjunction with these morons is this: "So, a**hole, are you hiring?" Sometimes I don't use the a**hole bit, depending on the level of ignorance I detect in their demeanor and tone. What these nitwits don't realize--brainwashed as they are--is how bad the economy would be without unemployment, and how bad it will be when even that runs out. Oh, and Social Security is an insurance program which we all have paid into. It's our money, not an "entitlement", ie., a "welfare queen", freeloader giveaway, or whatever the Marketing/PR(opaganda) says it is this week. I threw that one in there gratis just because it seems some of the people you come into contact with are a bunch of ignorant clods.samizdatnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10295475.post-66737245963354127552011-05-28T03:24:19.354-05:002011-05-28T03:24:19.354-05:00Well done for all your hard work in providing this...Well done for all your hard work in providing this high quality blog.1988 Chevrolet Tahoe AC Compressorhttp://www.discountacparts.com/1988/Chevrolet/Tahoe/A-C_Compressor.htmlnoreply@blogger.com
