Rent Woes? Please.

Okay, first off, if you can't pay your rent, don't tell me about it. I really don't want to hear about it. I really don't care. Really. I have to resist the urge to tell you to shut up about money problems. We both work at Wal-Mart. We both want more money.

I mean, when you think about it, we really make pretty good money for putting stuff on shelves every night for 8 hours. I put up with more junk at McDonalds in two days then I have in all the time I've worked at Wal-Mart, and then I was only making $6.35 an hour.

At WM, I make $9.00 an hour. They pay you extra $0.50 to not deal with customers. Wow, what a deal! I snagged night shift up faster than a kid on a candy bar. I was like, YES, I will stay up three days in a ROW if you want me too, as long as I don't have to deal with customers.

But I digress. we were talking about people complaining about how much bills they have.

And then they go and tell me about their TV package they got.

Well, MAYBE, just MAYBE, if you GAVE UP THE TV PACKAGE you would be able to PAY FOR THE RENT! Isn't that a thought?

*sigh*

There's a reason me and dad don't watch TV. It's too expensive. There's nothing on, and it's too expensive. We've gone without TV. No, I wasn't a deprived child. I turned out okay, right? (And all of those who know me are laughing right now)

I mean, really, what are we going to learn from a stupid episode of Family Guy? There's a TV in the break room at Wal-Mart, and there was an episode on. In the space of 5 minutes, three people ripped off their clothes and one couple had sex in the car.

Really. And that's quality TV that you're paying for instead of paying your rent?
