I remember back in 94 getting paid 5.00 dollars an hour was like being rich lol

$5/hour in 1994 rich? I don't think so. By 1994 I was making $25/hr and certainly didn't feel rich.

My first job was 60 cents per hour because the company, Burger Chef, was excempt from minimum wage laws. Which was $1.25 per hour at the time. After 6 months, I was making 90 cents per hour.

My first job in 83 was at the local meat works as a casual worker (even though my dad, and uncle worked there, uncle was a big knob in the company, he wouldn't help getting me a job). The wages were $6/hour, 6 hours.day.

3) In Asian and Middle-Eastern countries there are no Child Protective Services so feel free to whoop you kids ass anytime Trust Me! anytime you like...

12) You come to Pakistan and you will actually forget about the Microwave as there's no electricity about half of day all over the country and well in villages it used exist some years ago now not at all.. you'll be living older memories if you know what i mean

A Guy all i can say that you............. really made me Laugh

I loved reading it over and over again.....

Yeah that is sooo true. You can never predict when there'll be an electricity shortage. That was (partly) the reason I got my own Laptop. Sweet!

Something I thought of a while back...since you can track a package online right up to your doorstep, you don't even have to go downstairs/to the front door to check if it's been delivered, just hop onto the delivery company's site & it will tell you if it's been delivered.

Wow....we're getting lazy.....

I wouldn't take any notice of that, just because their site tells you it's been delivered doesn't mean to say it has.

Over here by the time it is posted "Delivered" someone has stolen it from in front of your house.

It is nice of them though that they post when it was stolen a day later.

Or that someone has not stolen it from your front porch.

Rich

Damn your fast Hopalong X ..

I would argue that laziness is the prime motivating factor in all inventions, innovations, and technological breakthroughs throughout history. :P
