I think it's absolutely disgusting that people without the means to get an actual job are essentially being told that if you want to eat and get your medicine you have to do a minimum of 80 hours a month of unpaid labor to get enough money for a week's worth of groceries a month, and medicine that you need to take to exist.
Like if I don't have the means to get an actual fucking job what the fuck makes you think I have the means to work for free. It is complete fucking bullshit.
But I'm sure all of the psycho motherfuckers on this website will be like " you should be thankful that doing community service hours for SNAP benefits is even a thing"
My state's minimum wage is currently $11 an hour.
Times that by 80 hours, that would be 880 dollars of work that would need to be done for 200 dollars to spend on food, and whatever cocktail of drugs for a single person that would cost basically nothing for the consumer if we lived in a civilized country.
If I can't even be hired as a fucking dollar store because of how fucked my body is, how the fuck do you expect me to make it through community service hours.
Not to mention that a lot of community service hours can just be randomly denied as being valid, because the place you did them for doesn't kiss the ass of the current government of your state, but there are no resources to find actual community service hours that will be approved by your State's offices.

Put AOC and her little Muslim friends in charge, that will solve every problem, right? anonymous 21 hours ago
They want us dead, and it's been a problem for a long ass time. One summer I took two classes in CC to finish a little quicker, but being an adult I also needed money and no one would hire me outside of manufacturing, logistics, and construction. No felonies or anything, but I'm a pretty big non-white dude. Anywho, as you can imagine temps didn't really want to hire me either because those industries either see a ton of OT or barely 40 hours. In this case, the company I ended up at was putting in almost 70 hours a week with 5-12s (60 hours) + an extra 8-10 shift. All 3rd shift at that.
So I'd do school during normal hours, go home, sleep for maybe 3-4 hours if I was lucky, and then drive half an hour to work for a 12-hour shift. I said something about my fitness, and despite all that had plenty of out of touch redditors telling me i had 30 minutes to go on a run because THEY HAVE 30 MINUTES TO GO ON A RUN.
I really didn't have time for shit, AND I was working 3rd shift. That. Shit. Will. Kill. You. The. Shift. Premium. Is. Not. Because. They. Care. About. You.
So, yeah, now I finally got a degree but I'm on Medicaid atm. My right shoulder is weak as hell. Fall on it wrong? Sleep on it wrong? It'll be months before I can use it again. In the gym can't bench or lift as much as I used to cause my right can't keep up with my left. Fucking assholes are out of touch with reality and you're completely right shits disgusting. anonymous 20 hours ago
Oh and between it all, including an emergency surgery that went worse than the surgeons expected and a trip to grippy socks wonderland brought on by uni admins I had to move back home. My mom's trailer park won't let me own a car and she's pretty deep in the suburbs. Can't afford an uber and the gov't knows I can't own a car cause I submitted the threat to tow mine to them for it to be on the record.
Even with my degree can't get a cushy job unless I work for myself either because recruiters see I worked at Amazon, and then assume all I'm good for is moving boxes around or babysitting machines. My programming background is irrelevant to them. My Six Sigma black belt meaning I'm more of an expert in Six Sigma than likely any of their managers on the floor is irrelevant. Literally everything except my work experience which isn't even that great is irrelevant.
They want us dead because their solution to those problems are then to go to the gym, go to therapy, and get on meds. None of which are affordable or possible if your job isn't flexible or has a good work life balance, wage, and insurance plan. Shits fucking stupid and so many fucking people happily go along with this shit and wonder why people like me constantly want to kill ourselves. Really? It's a fucking mystery? Really?
pull your fucking head out your ass. Most people who've worked with me would tell you that I'm fucking insane for working as hard as I do: regularly doing the work of several people or doing literally whatever teh fuck my boss asks me cause shits gotta get done. I've had bosses say I'm a fast learner too, so it's not like I'm some fucking idiot who can't get shit done. These people don't fucking care because we aren't people to them until we're gone and they can't replace us. It's not until our families are pissed and writing obituaries about our lives they finally give a damn and see the error in their ways, and it'll never fucking change. anonymous 20 hours ago
and my gov't knows I can't own a car now because the trailer park threatened to tow that shit. I also happened to apply for SSI because even though I got a degree I'm done with people's bullshit, including the trailer park accusing me of threatening them over my car. No police report. No real investigation. Just their letter head, a threat to tow my car because the lease and they're dickheads, and a signature from the park manager. Park Manager addresses me in the body, but addressed it to someone else in the house. I'm on the lease and was when she first moved in. We've all been helping one another for over a decade now.
So, yeah, fuck it. I say play their games where you can. Take their shit and throw it in their face and use their bullshit to help you survive. Fuck them. Perpetual and professional fucking victims because we aren't members of the fucking elite class. anonymous 20 hours ago
Blame that 41-year-old fat babyman who lives in Erie, Pennsylvania wasting funds on diapers and calling APS because he doesn't know how to wipe his own ass but operate computers sitting on his fat ass all day complaining his diapers are full of shit. I won't give out his name but search YouTube for "Poopsquatch." You'll see what I mean. anonymous 12 hours ago
