So, I have never had a job in my life. Well, sorta. Nic works for the family business, but that really doesn't count, since its $100/month. You ######6 heard right: $100 bucks a ######6 month. Nic says its better than nothing, I say "###$ that! We can do better than that!". But we can't, unfortunately.
60 Minutes had an amazing report on how #######5 it us for people who have been unemployed for more than 3 years (Which, I guess, qualifies us), and the stigma attached to it, in this case, means "Unemployed over 3 years equals lazy bastard". And that's simply not true in the majority of the cases, its just that people, quite simply, can't get hired.
Add that to the stigma that Mental Illness carries, that we are all crazy bastards who can't concentrate or can't think about anything other than "I must kill all my co-workers", then we are well and truly ###$.
Heres the cure: Get all the smart people with mental illnesses together, and let them be our spokesmen. That ######6 simple. "Hi, I'm C., and I have a Dissociative disorder. I'm not smarter than all of you combined, but your ###$ should we be on Jeopardy together"-kind of deal.
However, if that doesn't work, then maybe trying to prove that those with mental illness are better at everything than normal folk are will do the trick. Its not really that hard, as most normal people are ######6 imbeciles who, not only cannot spell imbeciles correctly, have no idea just how ######6 stupid they are. And the second someone tries to point it out, were the assholes. Sure. But that still makes you an idiot, still. At least I know how ######6 physics works. Asshole.
But still, they get preference over jobs, because they had a 2-day stint at Moxie Java and they're not "PSYCHO", or "INSANE". As much as I ######6 hate that stigma of mental illness = PSYCHOPATHIC MONSTER GET AWAY WAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!, at least we have something to go off of. You want a job? Your super qualified for it? You didn't get it, and it went to some bimbo who likes ######6 Mtv? Say "GIMME DA JOB #######2 OR I BE BLOWIN YO ASS UP ALONG WIT DAT SHIDDI RESTURANT OF YOURS oh sorry, I have a sugar imbalance". If they've come this far with stereotypes, it should work. Cause if ######6 morons can get hired while being ######6 morons, why can't we act crazy and NOT expect it to work, even if just part of the time?
