Can't say I'm in a situation like that. I do have the option of not working

Then you are extremely lucky, as am I. I have enough money saved up that I took a break.

However, something like 40% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck and just don't have that option. The threat of poverty is constantly chasing them. When you're in that situation, you will take the best option available even if it's garbage or next to garbage.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
