retirement without getting older??

wouldn't that be nice??? I am getting older, much older, in fact, i'm of retirement age, but neither do i have the time in nor the money to do it.

the homesless- do we have responsibilty?

Of course, we do. How can any american, especially those who can afford million dollar homes, designer clothes, cruises, vacations abroad, fine jewelrone y and spend 200.00 on shoes for a child, pass by someone, likely mentally ill, and perhaps throw him a bone or a buck, and think, "I gave through charities. I got my write off, and that is a win-win siutation. IT is not. These street people obviously did not get a big enough piece of a donation for sustenance, so they are asking for more. Don't you think it's degrading for them? Think of the as human beings who might have been productive citizens at one time ubtil tragedy struck.

Jason was wined and dined for three days by an elderly Jewish philanthropist. He had approached Jason two years ago to come work for one of his organizations. At the time, Jason was comfortable and very content as being an equal CEO of a not for profit Jewish website, of which one of his prime responsibilities was fundraising. It was no wonder with his affable personality and devotion to the site that he was extremely successful getting sizeable donations.

His colleague was an egotistical young man, not nearly as vested in making the website supreme. Jason was in the office working productively most evenings long after Dan went home. Jason was advised a few months ago that Dan would quit if he was not given the title of CEO and be given full responsibilty that they had both shared, so he was granted his wish, and Dan forbade Jason from doing his favorite aspect of the job. Dan is a graduate of Yeshiva University and keeps the Sabbath.

Jason, feeling very unhappy, now- the older man renegged onhisoffer and dan ended up screwing Jason and firing him.

have you ever?

Have you ever disliked someone so much that even at the slightest glance their most prominent feature becomes more distorted? I do. When she purses her painted scarlet lips and nods in agreement with policies introduced by administrators who she doesn't realize are using her, and that she must knows will not benefit those we serve, I must look away. the KISS UP.

everyone is afraid- of the BULLY or followers unlimited or let the supervisors just walk over us

The teachers with whom I work inthis psychiatric hospital think that if they speak up for themselves or the children, they will be treated worse than they are now.
supervisors should be watching over us -looking out for employees not bullying us.
