In Need of a Bit of Inspiration

I was feeling a bit down this last weekend, so I decided to watch one of my favorite movies, Cinderella Man. I have to laugh about what our generation defines an economic depression. I watch the news and see thousands of people lined up and camped out, to get a couple of jobs, at a fire station in Florida, for $45,000 a year. It just doesn't seem like good business to apply for a job that is taking 750 applications for only two jobs openings. I think this is what Las Vegas defines as a long shot. I think I would ask several of the people around me what their credentials where and then ask myself, "would "I" hire myself, over this person or that one"? I think you would have to be an ego maniac to believe you are better than all 1000 people standing in line. Are these the same 1000 people that six months earlier where all laying on a beach somewhere thinking it just doesn't get any better than this? I think if I was doing the hiring I would have been disgusted to look out the window to see such a site. I find it amusing that these people, at the first sign of a faltering economy, instantly line up on the bread line. They are crying about not having the thousands to pay for their $2500 a month mortgages. How god damn stupid are people these days?
