    Noticed the profile change. I can't remember what it was before.
    I am assuming this sarcasm ?
    Or did 'they' finally replace you with a machine?

    I often put that down on forms too, along with my income and most people end up confused.

    Give it a try apply for a credit card put 'unemployed' then put your income, see there whole system fallover ;) paradox

    Off topic but a 5 year old in the UK went shopping on ebay with their parents credit card, thought you might like that.

    Really Fryman, I actually have to work because the electic company likes to shut your power off if you don't pay the bill :eek:

    Shawn is not working :confused:

    Soon he will be running Digital Point with a wireless laptop from under a bridge on the Santa Monica Freeway :eek:

    i love what i do. well, did do, i won't be going back to work for a few months, and since i moved, i need to find a new job, which sucks.

    although if i relied on residual income, i could do similar work as a volunteer...hmm....so maybe employment does suck.

    The brick masons asked me if I knew anyone else that needed a job because the crew is short handed, I told them yes, I know a guy who is unemployed and his name is Shawn, they asked if he would be willing to move bricks around in a wheelbarrow, I said maybe if you pay him $12.00 an hour and put him up in the hotel you guys are staying in he may just consider it :p :D :p
