Now he can't find a job to save his life. He's incredibly discouraged.

My grandparents are going through that too. I fear nothing, because I have my faith, just like you Susan. Or maybe I fear nothing because I am young and havn't expirenced life yet.

Not high pay and not great jobs, but usually most people can find SOMETHING to do. We've become too much a society of complacency and entitlement. And also...I find it so amazing that many people who are still employed in service jobs (working at stores, etc) still act as if they could care less if they provide any kind of help at all to people who are out there spending money.Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17786838392389718536noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8183659495792368796.post-36805910860260975472009-02-28T17:10:00.000-06:002009-02-28T17:10:00.000-06:00We are meeting people that are having these very p...We are meeting people that are having these very problems, too.
