RE: The Perfect Gift

["Kelvin Bailey" <unloadthedragon@hotmail.com>]

Sometimes I get a little weary hearing people complain about where they 
work.  If you don't like it, get another job.  I just quite my sucky job and 
it was the most empowering thing I've done in years.  I know some people 
dont' have the luxury, but the folks working at Borders aren't exactly 
welfare mothers.

Besides...healthcare is a "benifit" not an entitlement.  I think it would be 
great if all employers offered it to all full-time employers, but if they 
don't and you need it, go somewhere that offers it.

Besides...unions suck.

But then again...it's Christmas time!
