The people who have been laid off and cannot find work are generally people with poor work habits and poor personalities. I say "generally" because there are exceptions. But in general, as I survey the ranks of those who are unemployed, I see people who have overbearing and unpleasant personalities and/or who do not know how to do a day's work. They are people who create either little utility or negative utility on the job. Again, there are powerful exceptions and I know some, but when employers are looking to lay off, they lay off the least productive or the most negative. To assure that a worker is not one of them, he should learn how to work and how to get along -- not always easy.
I have to think that the inside of his skull is simply filled with a writhing mass of centipedes and cockroaches and that only the sheer power of the dark side of the Force keeps them from spilling out of him every time he opens his mouth.
But on a more positive note:
Also this sleeping bag is the greatest thing I have ever seen. I both thank and curse my buddy J- for showing me this.
