Daily Grind

     Each day, we wake up and go straight to business. The 9-5 Monday-Friday work week we all dread and has us all saying "Can't wait for the weekend!". If we all hate this lifestyle so much it just made me wonder why do we force ourselves to do it? Why not just move to Greece and live off of the land and provide for yourself without having to worry about how much your paycheck is going to be from week to week. Is this way of life so amazing that we all just want to go out and fist pump every Saturday night. I know I don't. When it all starts to make sense the reason we work so hard day after day is because we are motivated by something. Whether it be starting a family, being the richest of the rich or just having enough to get by and enjoy life in your own way. All of these things that motivate us to work require money and as unfortunate as it is we are controlled by it. Each day the daily grind gets us, countless Facebook posts on how everyone hates waking up early or updates saying how happy they are that the day is over and the weekend is coming. We all need to make sure that we are playing as hard as we are working though, each of us has to work but in the long run the truth is all work and no play makes each of us boring as it gets. Eventually we all want to retire and never work another day in our life so I encourage not only myself but also everyone to continue working hard and step at a time make this world a better place, get our economy out of the dumps and make enough money for all of us to retire and party all day everyday! Hard work pays off, pay now and play later!

                                         

Unions...Seriously?

     So this morning on my way out for the day I noticed that there was a group of union workers standing outside of a construction site with a giant blow up rat with signs up about how they deserved the construction work over the privately owned company. So let me get this straight the person building didn't want to hire the group that costs more money, takes twice as long and works half as hard; seems to make sense to me. I am not speaking against the workers of the union keep in mind but rather what they stand for. They think that they should earn more money because they are part of an organization, in turn them making more money also  makes them lazier because if you're making more money why would you want the job to take less time. Everyone has driven past those construction sites where there is one guy working and 6 guys standing around having their 7th lunch time of the day and no one can tell them to get back to work because they are union and they get twice as many breaks as normal construction workers, it's ridiculous. Please keep in mind I am not speaking of the policeman, teachers and firefighters that work hard to make this country great, but the lazy many who gives these unions a bad name and the rich unions that do not want to help out the private unions. In America right now many of our jobs are going overseas and for this very reason, the workers in America are much more expensive in America. We continue to wonder why our economy is in the dirt and jobs are so hard to find and that is for the simple reason that we are no longer the country that believes hard work is necessary to become successful and that money should simply be handed to us for the most minimal amount of work. I could rant about this all day, but I think you get the idea. It's time to wake up America and work for our economy to rise again rather than blaming it on any one man this is a country that came into existence because of hard work not from high pay rolls and lazy attitudes.
