So I am unemployed, have been since last May which is troubling as some of you can imagine and many of you know first hand. I had spent several days being depressed about my situation, especially in the face of multiple interviews for jobs I am more than qualified for but competing against hundreds if not thousands to get. Lam has been consistently suggesting a new career as a bank robber as he has a romanticized notion of the whole thing - a notion that is solidly unfounded since he is primarily bank rolled by Kim Jong-Il and I can only imagine what kind of robbery that involves...
Anyways, although the thought of quick money is certainly attractive, I'm not a very violent person and am pretty sensitive about peoples emotional state and I always thought that robbing someone at gun point might, in fact, hurt their feelings.
However, while looking for a suitable picture for this segment (see above) I found this picture of a bank robbery on progress on the same page as the following banner:
So, what exactly are they attempting to suggest here? Are all unemployed people really latent criminals? It seems to me that many of the unemployed in this current state of affairs are unemployed due to the criminal activity, or at very least, the criminal neglect of our own corporations and government - oops, I did it again! (Sorry Brittany) I forgot that these institutions are one and the same. Instead of faces of the unemployed - how belittling - maybe it needs to be the faces of the mother-fuckers that robbed us of our futures. Oh well, I'm not one to sit around idly whining, I just thought I'd take a moment to share this as I had no other topic to discuss and needed a new entry and when I saw that banner - oh my! Only slightly related, I also found this image of a bank robbery in Myanmar:
Is this a midget in a mask robbing a bank or am I just wishful thinking? Have a great week everybody!
