and deserved every penny he made.  Sometimes he took naps at work, sometimes he played cards at work, but that was the nature of his job.  They wanted the skilled labor guys there in case they were needed.  If they weren't needed, then oh well.  You act as though they were goofing off and not doing their job.  The reality is they were there to do their job when it was asked of them.

The guys and gals on the assembly line weren't doing their jobs half the time or were drunk or drinking when they came in and worked.  Building cars while drunk.  And if you want to know what the problem is with auto industry you don't have to look farther than Americans buying foreign made cars and the SUV. 

I just have to say that I did NOT want McCain as our next president. I am not pro-McCain....in case you missed it....I'm not conservative nor am I pro-McCain. I consider myself down the middle. There are some issues I'm very liberal with and some that I am conservative with.

With that said.....this board has become very one-sided and seemingly mean-spirited. My friend says this is because people are so fed up and so ready for a change........I am too, but my goodness, let's not be blinded with Obama's charisma. He will be hugely successful with some things and he will fail miserably with some things. That's the nature of politics. He's human. He will be affected by Washington politics. He's already backed down on one thing that he stated during the campaign (no lobbyists as advisors--now they can be but with restrictions).

I would rather look at things realistically and without rose-colored glasses. Let's call the dogs off Palin & MCain, take the high road, and look to Obama to be the great leader he promises to be.

We lived on soup given to us by a neighbor for 6 months. In return, hubby worked around the place for him (they were in their 70s). We would get a gallon of soup every other day. I must say, I did lose weight then.   Kids came first, then hubby, then me for the soup. I never want to be in that position again, but it looks like it may come to that. Thank heavens, I've been stocking up a bit. I'm no where near where I'd like to be food-wise, but better off than I was in the 80s when there was NOTHING.
