Proletariat

i am officially a member of the underclass. i accepted a minimum wage job – starting today – to partly assuage my conscience about being a bum longer than intended and hopefully to ease my father’s potential concern about me being a bum longer than intended.

now i work my tail off with no benefits for slightly less money than needed to purchase the drugs and booze required to get through the day. christ, minimum wage isn’t even enough to cover the pain of getting out of bed in the morning.

i suppose i could join with my new class comrades and become a fan of obama. then i consider that of the pittance i am paid something like thirty percent goes to support our beloved overlords. and that makes me want to buy more bullets.

so no, it’s guns and booze for me. both come highly recommended.
