Jfc.. 🤦♀️
You could have saved yourself a little typing and just said you're a wilfully ignorant classist bootlicker... 🙄
Careful though, just like the majority of the population, you're barely a missed pay check or two, or one big accident/disaster, away from being homeless yourself.. That despicable attitude of yours may very well come back to bite you in your self cantered unempathetic ass sooner than you think..
You think it's ok to leave two dogs in a car all day in the weather they have over there?
You're making a lot of assumptions about my choices. I choose to live well below my means because I don't want this to happen to me. I don't have pets, despite wanting them. I didn't buy a nice house on an expensive loan; I rent a small crappy place in a decently safe area. I don't buy cars on loans, I fix them myself until I need to buy a new one in cash.. I live as if I make half as much as I do, and have done so since working my way through school.
She should be making 40+/HR for what she does. Hard work out in the sun all day is brutal and should be adequately compensated. But until society figures it's shit out, people have to be willing to make hard choices. It can be done, it's just hard and people generally don't like making hard choices.
As usual, all nuance is lost on some people who insist on a world of blacks and whites
