04/28 Dr. Phil's Mooch Squad
Quote From: cheekynik From what I have seen with my stepsons, moochers are just spoiled kids that have not grown up. My fiances oldest son has been basically handed at least 6 good paying jobs(ranging from $17-$24.00/hr to start) from which his father knows alot of people. He has quit every one of them with some pretty big excuses. He even went to the extent on one job to stage a crying act telling the boss that he needed to quit because his mother got into a car accident and died. He then gets his pay from what they owe him, and moves back here to mooch of of his father. He was in a relationship with a nice girl who can't stand his nonsense anymore either. He asked his dad to co-sign for a $2000 loan on the last job his father got him in the mine. He wanted to pay off some bills to start fresh. He paid off part of a bill and used the rest to wine and dine and buy his girlfriend his love. He quit his job again and is now in arrears with his payments. He moved back here for a couple of weeks until his father had enough again. He then moved out and into a friends place for approx. a month. He came over to stay a weekend to mooch some more money for the greyhound(400.00) out to Alberta, Canada for another job. He has been there for a few days. I will give him 3 weeks, and he will be back. Ya see? That makes me sick. My husband works with a couple of guys like that, only not as bad. They keep their job but complain about it constantly.
The reason it makes me mad is because my husband has been waiting for a break like the one he got at this job for a long long time. He works programming video games and he gets paid a mere $28,000 a year to support 3 people on. He has his foot in the door way and he has a whole ladder to climb up. He's thankful for his job and he works hard at it, stays late, he has bought books on new programming concepts that will help him get a promotion eventually and he spends his spare time practicing and writing programs at home.
On the other hand, he works along side of two moochers. Who got the job from knowing the president of the company. They complain, leave early, come late, do their job wrong and the say they don't get paid enough all the time.
Young adults today are the product of spoiled babyboomers....ugh
