We have an employee (i thought he was a decent guy but..) who drinks a lot. He got drunk, wrecked his bicycle (he has had 2-3-4 prior DUI's so he rides a bike now) into a car about 6 months ago. He got hurt but not life threatening.

Now the ****er supposedly can't work (how about some light duty work???) and is applying for SSI. He is roughly 45 years old.

The guy caused his own problems and will now sit around collecting free $ and working side jobs for cash..... doh.... (we have other employees who have done the same, as well as many of my rental neighbors, etc....).... this seems to be the thing to do these days....

 

If the money is there, take it.

Works for government contracts too. . . and section 8 housing.

 

Did he get a DUI for riding his bike too? Because I think you can.

 

I am learning that my section 8 houses are not getting enough rent $ to cover the assholio problems when they leave..... I used to make fun of the landlords who charge top $ ($800+ a month where I am getting $650 a month)..... the joke is on me on that one..... i have spent $$$$$$ fixing their ****ups.......

 

We created the issue...

By installing back up alarms on delivery trucks. How many dumb people has this creation saved?

I believe in Natural Selection...or as a good friend (Ron) once shared, AutoDarwinism...

 

he should have but I am not sure....... if i see him i will ask....

wonder what happens in other countries if you create all of your own problems.... do they give you a check each month?

 

They typically have stiffer penalties for DUI, and then after a certain number of repeat offenses, they throw you in the mental institution (which means you don't serve a sentence, they have to decide to discharge you).

 

Sad, but 8d is right its not just the poor who exploit loopholes.

 

Scot...how 'bout you capitalize the "A" in America and show some fawking respect.

 

You seem to attract these people, Scot.
