I am sorry that you are bitter about what life has dealt you.
Dude, you don't understand what words mean. I'm not bitter. I simply Re-evaluated beliefs based on evidence. If you have a theory and it doesn't work, you get a new theory.

We don't know why some people live and others die, maybe its God's will or just chance. Blaming religion is not the answer because it will only make you more bitter.
Or maybe she just died because she had cancer. But some stupid old Dyke saying that at her funeral was enough to put me over the edge of why I thought religion was useless and stupid.
There is no God, and frankly, I'm grateful that there is no God. I would really hate to live in a universe where the Bible God was a real thing. That would be awful.
Maybe your boss' business was being destroyed by the union and he was fed up with it. maybe you were the least valuable employee. Your victim mentality will only insure more failure in the future, I guess being a govt dependent may be the best thing for you.
The only thing that destroyed our business was his arrogance. Like his arrogance that he could keep hitting up our biggest customer with a 30% markup and they wouldn't go directly to the manufacturer we were buying it from.
Here's the thing. I've been successful at everything I've done, whether it be the military (where I was an NCO) or private sector (where I've been promoted to supevisory positions) or even this shitty part time job I hate. (Where I still manage to outperform people who do this full time.)
What I stopped doing - what I should have stopped doing 20 years earlier - was assuming that the guy in the corner office got there because of merit.
This company had a pretty good run in the mid-oughts because the employees worked hard, not because of decisions this guy made or not because of his drunken 20 minute rambles left on our voice mails because he didn't understand a report we prepared. (Usually followed by a sheepish non-apology when he realized he was wrong.)
Oh, this guy thought Mitt Romney would make a wonderful president, but threatened to vote Democratic if Huckabee got the nomination. Pretty much all you Christian types really need to know about what the Plutocrats really think of you!
