Ticked off! @ money & slobs

I'm ticked off at just more competition. When employers promote more competition, animosity, and jealousy in the workplace, no one wins this way.

If some of you have closets running over, but still like to shop, find a working family trying to survive on minimum wage; they would be happy to have new shoes, a coat, or additional blankets this winter, and it doesn't take expensive items to make them happy.

It's not the customer service person's fault for little or no knowledge. Instead, put blame on the cost-cutting management who insist with "on-the-job training" and frustrating the customer even more.

I'm ticked off that I get calls from the sheriff's office requesting money for one fund or another. Don't my taxes pay to support law enforcers?

I'm beyond ticked off at my automobile insurance company. I was rear-ended in January of this year and have yet to receive my $500 deductible. The other driver's insurance company has compensated for my injuries, and my witness has told them it was not my fault, but it has gone to arbitration and can take another six months.

I'm ticked off at obesity. Obesity is so nasty, yet most people do nothing about it. These fat slobs care so little about how they look and impress other human beings and with all the government entitlements, they don't need to impress with their looks. Uncle Sam will take care of them no matter how disgusting they look.

I'm ticked off that the city not only didn't put up the light pole Christmas trees, but didn't plug in the replacements.
