And prices keep going up

And outside of the genetic component the rest can be taught (like a skill)

Hence why fitness is a military skill and requirement.

I still don't see it as a skill but as a state of being. It's not something you do, it's something you are.

Any skill becomes that sort of extension of self.

Good because it's already more expensive here than in Texas but maybe the summer prices have hit there too, I don't know.

The price of Euros just went up.
(Bought some engines in Austria.)

But your electric bill will be cheaper this summer.
(Don't need nearly as much AC in OH.)

More like not the skills you're looking for.

If they had any skills, they were well hidden.

When I was labeled "unskilled" I had already done some freelance coding work. Awhile ago I applied for a mechanic job, I was deemed "unskilled" in the field despite my experience.
"Unskilled" is more just an assumption than a reality.

Not everyone else's judgement is correct.

Sorry, it's just the truth. I AM 62 years old. I DON'T want to try new things or suddenly become more thrifty. I DO want inflation to slow down.

And it is also the truth that you are sounding very Karen.

 

[Shadow Wolf]

Not everyone else's judgement is correct.

I personally believe it comes from the same placd of mistrust and looking down of people that leads to both the belief people must start at crap like fast food to learn how to work and gave is qualified immunity.

And it is also the truth that I don't care if I am sounding very Karen to you.

People are not equal.
Some are unskilled.
Your being mis-judged doesn't change this.
If every you employ others, you'll discover this....alas, the hard way.

 

[SkepticThinker]

LOL well I really DON'T care. And I'm sorry but I have real life going on so sometimes I do disappear. That being said, I don't ever say I didn't say what I said.

Why do you post if you don't actually care about anything?
It's frustrating for others who are trying to converse with you.

 

[Kathryn]

I do care about some things, just not some of these threads, and so what? @SkepticThinker

 

[Saint Frankenstein]

That sounds sooo Karen.

That's not what a Karen is. A Karen is an entitled upper middle class woman who enjoys tormenting retail workers and causing problems for other people.

Thank you. Ummmmmm, not me.

You're a "Kathryn".

You're a "Kathryn".

LOL I guess I am! Not in real life though. I just like that name.

 

[Koldo]

And it is also the truth that I don't care if I am sounding very Karen to you.

That's alright. I don't care if you care either.

 

[Kathryn]

That's alright. I don't care if you care either.

Excellent!

So what, is that it's frustrating to attempt to converse with someone who, when asked to elaborate upon their post, refuses to do so and says they "don't care." It's frustrating for someone who is trying to engage in a debate/conversation with that person.

Well, I can't help it if I am white but I'm not entitled or excessively demanding. I just want my creamer not to jump 1.51 cents in one fell swoop. For the store brand.
