KD> I'm pushing 50 and was laid off two years ago next May.

BG> Just two jobs interviews in two years makes you a parasite of the
BG> worst kind, and how you've managed to stay on the dole is beyond me.

He's right.

KD> Mowing lawns? Don't tell me that isn't trying.

BG> What, just seven miserable hours of mowing lawns in two years, and you
BG> call that trying?  I think it's an absolutely disgusting effort myself.

He's right, pathetic.

KD> I agree that it's miserable and disgusting
KD> that I can't get a job at my usual work,

Soorree, the world has moved on, you dont get to proclaim what your
'usual work' is and demand that society must provide you with that.

KD> but the fact that I will, and have accepted any work offered
KD> to me points to the fact that I am trying to get work.

Crap, that absolutely pathetic result of just two interviews in two
years and 7 hours lawn mowing ACTUALLY points to the fact that you
couldnt work in an iron lung and that its about time we pulled the plug
on your dole to make you get off your arse and try harder looking of work.

KD> I get $7,740 a year out of which I have to pay.....TAX.

Tough, a grand total of $318 in fact. Stop whining, I wouldnt be paying
you the $7.7K myself, you clearly arent trying hard enough to find work.
