I can't tell what's going on here... you quoted a post of mine, that had a bunch of crap added to it that I didn't post.... it looks like someone replied to it and it was incorrectly quoted, and then they deleted their post? No idea. I hope you're replying to the text in your quote that is not mine, as seems to be the case.
Bloody hell, I've already been furloughed.
He has a point though. Whether you are one of those guys or not, some people seem to think they are more privileged than others. Like the last guy said, paying dues is all relative. A guy who gets lucky now might get screwed over in the future. Everyone will pay their dues, some more than others. At the regional FO level it is hard to tell how much hardships one has ahead of them.
Bragging about how much hardships you went through to get to the regionals is kinda like bragging about living in the hood. Bragging about living in poverty. "I'm from the hood, you come to the hood and talk like that you get knocked the @$#% out. I'm cut throat. We don't call the PO-lice, we settle this S@$# in tha stAreet."
