Griping and complaining.

Posted by The Inspector on February 2nd, 2010 filed in Uncategorized

In my line of work I frequently deal with populations of people who rely heavily on various entitlement programs to make ends meet. I think many of these programs are important for people who really need them. It is however hard to listen to someone tell me how unfair it is that they are expected to participate in employment training in order to remain eligible for these programs. I listened on one particular day to a 24 year old woman who detailed how wrong it was that she be told she had to attend a job training seminar. She insisted that she did not have time for this type of thing despite not being able to keep a job of any sort in the last year. Since she is not currently working, going to school, or raising children I have to wonder what is making her schedule so busy? I know I would jump at a chance for training if this were something offered to me in a similar situation.
