The family has been corrupted or destroyed by many factors. Preach on!

Like I said, until "Camp Rock", I didn't think there was ANY hope out there. Sure, some of the parents at my church get it, but not many. Even in the church, respect for authority or deity is not there.
If anyone does not think that American has been dumbed down, try hiring an entry level person these days.
We have had to specifically tell office staff that "texting grammer" is not acceptable business communications. The boss has resorted to a 40 year old man as office/shipping/accounts clerk because he can't find someone in their 20's who can do the job. It's costing about $15,000 more per year in wages, but it's worth it - this place really runs better now!
Hire the old(er) - the young are such a waste of space.
And, again, this is not to say that all 20 year olds are like this, but the good ones are few and far between. If you find one, latch on to them!!!!!!!!!!
See now thats part of the problem, I work my *** off for everything. I have 7 college classes this semester, full time job and an internship, Im not looking for sympathy from anyone. but when I am not even looked at for a job ABOVE minimum wage because of my age thats fucked up. You wonder why people question why? and why people quit or dont give a **** if they get fired? Its because people like myself for 80hrs and their bi-weekly check is $550. Thats a load of ****, do I have respect for my elders? Yes I do, Do i have respect for my bosses who bark off the orders and make 100k a year? No I have 0 respect for them. To come to me and complain how sales are down and we only made 150k this month, while they are paying me 8.40 an hr is a complete insult to me and my intelligence, it does the exact opposite and makes me not give a **** about the business or doing anything for them.
There are good kids and bad kids. I 100% agree that these kids at first were probably trying to be funny, Ive seen many times kids go up to other guys and want to shake their hand because they have a gorgeous girlfriend, same thing, they are trying to be funny. But to say they are bad kids because of this is completely wrong.
