money?
kahlid74:
The idea of a "money/currency"-less society is a novel one at best. Human nature prevents this from ever occurring.

no I am not union.
I make 18.01 a hr. factory. I make air-condition tube( aluminum)
I am a roll form operator.
Problem: I am the most qualified person on the floor. I have mastered 7 machines in my department. all others except 1 I have personally trained. but each only knows 1 machine.
For 5 years solid I have done MAJOR amounts of over time. so much it has torn my family apart. My 17 year old daughter left my wife and I. I Just can not talk about it.
Work has been making me cover all other workers but other workers can not cover me.
the company posted a Tech Job in my department and a line leader.
I am a machinist not really a people person.
There is no question in the plant the job was mine. The tech. job
another person got the line leader job and the company decided they do not need a tech and asked me to train my BOSS!
I still refuse. They have decided to move me back to my old job in power steering.
still same pay grade and still day shift. MUCH less STRESS.
unemployment was on my mind but in my head I did not quit. The company quit on me.
If I quit my wife would be upset. if I got fired I would get more sex :)
Mysterioii:
haha man, that last line is priceless... :lol
I know what ya mean.... in the past when I was single, and I'd had enough at the place I'd worked, I just quit one day. Didn't even LOOK for a few months.... I hadn't taken a vacation in 4 years so I was like "to heck with it, I've got enough saved up, I'm gonna relax for a while". Yeah it kinda sucked blowing through savings like that, but man was it a load off my back. You don't get opportunities like that too often.
Now, I'm married and have an awesome 2-year-old little girl. Even when things blow at my current job, it's just not the same situation as before. Really would need to have something else lined up, can't be as impulsive as when you're on your own...
daywane:
what makes my situation different is I am dept free.
I own my home and cars.
no credit eather working on that
last look I was 690 credit score
rooter:
Play a game of Civilizations and you will see how money affects the world.
The reason we use money is that most people can't build a house on their own , grow their own food , and make their own clothes. Spending half your week bartering for what you need is a huge waste of time and could leave you really hungry. What happens when you need medicine? Even if you can do those things, you will need to move to a country that doesn't have property taxes.
Is this a serious question? I feel like I am explaining this to a 3rd grader.
