but doh! lazy americans!!!
i will def cede the point that there is a large population of lazy bums and lazy americans out there, and unfortently they tend to believe they arent lazy. those are the worst ones out there, the ones who have the attitude, hey im not punched in i dont have to answer that or do that, or hey im not working today so screw it. dude your job is a big part of who u are, man up and show pride regardless of being payed or not.

i dont know how many times ive put 50-60 hours in and then gone in on a sat to get something for car and wind up spending another 4 or 5 hours helping people cuz they were busy and i couldnt bear to see customers get unhappy, all the while not being payed. my biggest pet peeve is those that say it aint my job or im off the clock. dude ur never off the clock as far as im concerned. 2 am someone calls and they are a good customer of mine and need something, im on my way in.

sry for the rant, i just do really hate those who dont take pride in what they do.
