Some Stuff I Wana Say

I can understand that you come from a country where jobs are nowhere to
be found. That your way of living your way of living is so far below the
poverty line of MOST third worlds countries. Ya gotta do what you gotta
do. So you sneak into the Great U.S. Of A.

But what you fail to realize, cause frankly, you could care less than a
fuck, that's its illegal to do so. But hey, MILLIONS of people do it
every year, AND get away with it. So why not give it a shot, you risk
sneaking into America. One thing though, it takes money. Its either you
continue working in your country, saving up the money, or... You get in
contact with someone who can sneak you in for a price. Part of that
price is that you have to work for him to pay him back for his time and
troubles he took to sneak you in. There's a lot involved with smuggling
people into America, and I don't want to go into all that right now. Its
just...it takes job and money away from people HERE, who really needs
it.

It just sickens me how about 5 years ago, in my line of work, I could
have a different job every 6 months if I wanted to, and I did. If one
employer didn't live up to what he said that he was hiring me for, I
would take my skills to another interviewer, and move on. Well, not
today I can't.

Employers know what's going on out there, and they know that us, the
ones seeking employment have to step up our skills in order to land that
job. But, the employer could care less about your skill really. The more
skills, experience you have, the more YOU would think you would get paid
right? No, nope, nada. Too much experince, you get passed over.
Nowadays, no experience almost makes it certain you will get hired cause
the employer doesn't have to pay that much. But there's also a kink in
this too. You get hired for one position, you end up doing the work of
3. Don't like it, quit, they can find someone else who will do it for
less.

That's why I get so upset about people who come to my counter for
service and they ask, do I speak spanish. This is America !! SPEAK
ENGLISH !! I was born here, were you ?
