ii believe any career were your not making money is evil, yes CEO's make a lot of money they also get to make hard decisions that could ruin the company, the issue with the financial system now is you have a bunch of people who fucked up and still have their jobs. i'm in college going for a bachelors in accounting if i screw up a big account it should cost me my job. as for the investors who lost all their money learn what the hell your doing madoff had a 15% return every year for what was it 20 years that no fucking possible 5 minutes of research would have shown that. you have to let the economy fix itself all the stimulus spending is just dragging out the recession oh wait that was over in june.

dad "i work for the evil company"
american dude "what, microsoft?"

congrats MS, BP has (indirectly) killed people, put many people out of jobs and killed loads of wildlife, and still isnt considered as bad as you

I work as a Casino Dealer. I get tons and tons of hate from my players... even some that don't even play at the table. They scoff about how I 'enjoy taking their money' and 'laugh at their misfortune'. I don't laugh, at least not at any of their misfortune. Seriously, some people really need to understand it's a CASINO.. they're gonna lose money in there.

Teachers are pure evil and so are politicians. Okay, not all of them, but a fairly big percent of the bastards are just looking forward to making your (school)life suck.

I know what you're talking about.
Chances are that the rules and regulations are strict because there are way too many people taking advantage of the system.
Simple solution would be to keep your details up to date. Its the least you can do considering you're being given healthcare and sometimes even money for free.

I've been on Centrelink payments, I hated it. But I'm not foolish enough to blame Centrelink, especially not the people who simply work there. Everytime I walked in to hand in my forms for youth allowance it was full of scum.
So how about before calling Centrelink employees evil, you consider the fact that they are enforcing rules that are not within their control, and that they have to put up with the lowest most ignorant and disrespectful dregs of society every day of their working lives.

I swear I don't think I'd be capable of doing their job without resorting to extreme levels of violence. Retail is bad enough.

Anyone selling anything. Retail is based on lying to the customer to make the bottom line.

CEOs and anybody in the military who doesn't actually do any ground work. I don't mean people like doctors or cooks, but commanders who hand down orders without fighting -- especially ANYBODY in the chain of command who has never been on a front line.

Also, strippers are somewhat untrustworthy. But that's their job description. They are actually paid NOT to have sex with people.

Ouch. Taking the blame for all that bad luck kind of totally sucks.

I am not as ignorant as you make me sound. I hate being on youth allowance, but I simply couldn't survive without it. It bugs me that the people that work there immediately assume I'm scum. I went in there and explained that I had severe depression, I had a doctors note and everything and the woman behind the counter said, 'I think you're lying. You don't look like there's anything wrong', after I lost my cousin to murder. If I ever met a decent Centrelink employee I wouldn't be so negative about it all.

Teachers. Hold up, don't torch me yet. Teachers are placed in a position where they have the potential to do a student a whole lot of good- not just in terms of academics, and yes- there are some teachers that I have good memories of.

That being said, I've seen a lot of teachers that just don't care, or those who screw over students they dislike. I always hated those teachers that were vague about subject material, or who always got other teachers to stand in for them, because it meant the class had to 'self-educate', as it were.

From what I know, being a teacher isn't easy, either. The pay sucks, half the students are usually assholes, and the hours are terrible. However, I have no respect for teachers that don't give a damn or abuse authority, tweaking grades and such.

Problem is, when you think ninety-per-cent of the people you meet are pricks, you're going to adopt the attitude of 'everyone's a prick until proven otherwise.'

I know people who work in the job-centre in a town where a huge amount of the population are unemployed. While most will be perfectly fine people who simply lost their job through unfortunate circumstances, the people who are simply lazy and are quite happy slipping down the societal ladder into an ocean of fuck-all speak a lot louder. When this person comes home they don't remember that nice guy who came in, had some bad luck, and asked for help. She'll come home remembering the man who shouted in her face for trying to arrange a job-interview during his 'pub-time' of 3pm-6pm.

It's not right that you're going to be treated like scum, it's just an unfortunately inevitability that you'll encounter in any similar system.

Good point you've made there. I would probably wind up being bitter too if I worked in such a place.

Politicians - I agree with Billy Connoly when he said, "Don't vote, it encourages them!"

Used car dealers - Always had a bad rep and I should have known better to avoid them. I didn't and I got stung. Not badly but still stung.

Clergy - Treat this as an umbrella term for all religious types. Praying on the gullibility of the weak-minded and credulous. Which brings me nicely onto...

Telemarketers - Yeah, yeah I know they have a job to do but, seriously, if I wanted what you were selling, I'd just go buy it. Thank fuck for the TPS that effectively bans them from phoning you!

Ambulance-Chasing Lawyers - You know? The ones that started the whole "sue" craze by getting people to press charges for the daftest little things. Evil. I don't include "proper" lawyers in this category, just the ones who waste the courts time with frivolous lawsuits.

At this point I had a look to see what other's have put and I'm not being frightfully original here. To that end I shall leave out traffic-wardens (although I will say the one ticket I got, I paid without a murmur because I knew I was parked where I shouldn't but couldn't find anywhere else - it was a "residents only" space), bankers and anyone in the military.

I've no love for fat-cats either and it's nothing to do with jealousy. If they've put in the hard work to get to where they are then all power to them. Sadly, so many seem to have got there by fucking people over who really didn't deserve it but the same could be said for many senior figures.

Finally, I will close with a tirade against one of the most hated groups in Britain (apart from Labour)...

Ladies and Gentlenerds, I give you - Independent Clampers. Known also as Rogue Clampers or C*nts. These are people who run "private" clamping-enforcement for roads and car-parks that are not part of the national highways (and therefore don't fall under the jurisdiction of official Traffic Wardens). These bastards will clamp you even if you've paid and most will use imtimidation and threats of violence to make you pay up an extortionate amount. The fact you've paid and have a valid ticket on display seems not to matter to these vermin and I welcome new proposals that are (supposedly) in the pipeline to cull their activities.

There have been stories of a group of them bouncing a car's suspension to make a ticket fall off the dashboard so they could clamp a car and young women are often met with requests for sexual favours to avoid the fine / get their car back. One chap, who's name I can't be arsed to look for, has been jailed for his constant threats and intimidation and yet remains unrepentant and plans to go back into the game. He's a tall, brick-shithouse with a bald head and glasses. I shall call him "Prick".

Wardy

I wasn't trying to make you sound ignorant. I realise plenty of people think the same way you do, and I could easily have been one of them. People nowadays just seem to lack the ability to see both sides of a story.
Personally I've had mostly decent people to deal with at Centrelink, with only a couple of lousy ones. Even then it was more a case of impatience and cynicism which would inevitably come from working at such a place.

Sorry I reacted so strongly, its just that I look at the work that these people do, and I respect them for it, knowing how much patience and self control it would take.
I also can't stress enough how they only enforce the rules and cover their own asses.

It seems however its a simple case of differing experiences. You've never met a decent Centrelink employee, and I've never met a real asshole one.
