I drink your milkshake! a metaphor for capitalism

And pretty soon you'll want $25hr and 24 HR workweeks.

The question is what do you want and why...

No it isn't. I'm living large on my father's dime. Sitting in a McDonald's that I drove to in a Lincoln Town Car. Thinking of getting a Stetson hat, fur trimmed coat, and diamond encrusted gold tooth.

Again, sigh, I'm independently poor having worked long enough to get a small pension. Doesn't matter what I want. What I was pointing out was you'll never be satisfied with better pay and a shorter work week. You'll always be pushing for more money and less work. You think it's a human right to live well on minimal effort. And can't seem to make the connection that jobs don't exist just cause. Businesses don't exist to provide you with an income. You want more? Get skills that they'll pay you more for because you're helping them make more money. Otherwise if you aren't willing to strive then you'll have to settle for whatever you get. Because you aren't owed anything.

the economy is so indebted and people are so stupid why would i even bother applying for overnight shift until 7am at the hospital? its hopeless

if you want people to work over night, allow a 4 hour shift starting at 330 am, and ill do it.
