Government: Friend Or Foe?


Over the last few decades, we have seen a dramatic increase in taxes. It is said that these increases are to provide solutions and services for the citizens of the united states, But whats really going on?
Lets take a closer look into the truth. Along with the tax increases all us Americans have lived through, there is 2 common trends. These trends work hand in hand, and bring a truthful reasoning to the pain behind new taxes.

Trend One: Increase spending. The government has placed those who work for them above other American citizens. If your a state or government employee, your pay, benefits, and paid vacations are doing nothing but increasing. With unemployment at it's highest, Why do State/Government employee's keep getting raises? (Hmm, think about it)

Trend Two: Lack Of Budgeting. Along with increased spending habits, lack of budgeting is hot on its tracks. Take a look into the past and look at just how many times taxes have increased over the course of several years (we'll call this X). Now look at how many times the government has done budget adjustments/Cuts (we will call this Y). If our X is happening because of the lack of Y's, then SOMEONES math is wrong. (let me assure you, It's not the government employee's making 3x that average of a civilian job)
My point comes down to this simple suggestion (If I'm not out of place, Of course). SPEND LESS, TAX LESS. Wouldn't budgeting for a sturdier economy be better for America in the long run?
(Oh wait, It's not about America. It's about securing Government jobs and benefits)

It's Been long. It's Been Fun.

Some changes to the site

So as you can probably tell I have been making some changes to the site lately.

I have been tying some things up on my end of life, and am starting to get some time to put into the site. I will be getting a domain name soon, and some private web hosting, and get a new blog going.

For now I will be using Blogger to keep my posts going, and to keep my pay per post up. But eventually (meaning in a couple of days) I will be setting up my personal website, with my own domain, and my own blog.

I will also be starting up a partner ship with another friend of mine and setting up a blog with several authors, along with a public forum to talk about the articles we post on there.

If you would like to help support either websites, please let my know by sending me a email at jjonesdesign@gmail.com with the subject "TheJonesTheory"

Thank you all, and have a great night.

Big Money Opps!

With the growing world of blogs there have been some great ways to make money. The most common being advertisements. Now there has been a new way for bloggers to make money, and fast.

Payperpost is a bloggers resource to blog about topics for money. After getting approved a person can choose from hundreds of topics, and post about them. All while getting payed per post.

In the past, the amount of money you got per post was fairly low, but now experienced posters have a huge opportunity to make A LOT of money.

With new advertisers from blog ad network (disclosure is required from all bloggers) offering more opportunity's (ops) a blogger has many category's and topics to choose from. If you want to blog about sports, do so. If you want to blog about new products, do so. Payperpost offers a lot of different types of ops. They are bound to have one you like.

The new segmentation system awards bloggers with high traffic blogs. You could make $1000 for a single sponsored post!

Also...Did you know that PPP only charges a 35% service fee compared to ReviewMe that charges a 100% markup. They are taking half your money for every post! You can get high paying opps more often and put more in your pocket with Payperpost.

4am... So early.

My scheduel for work has been pritty much the same, and im getting into the trend of how things work. I have to be at work by 4:00 am. which Is starting to get alot easyer. The reason I am posting now, is because of this:

I work with a manager somtimes at night when im recoverying, that isn't exactly the smartest person in the world. In recovery you run around each of the isle's and pickup stuff that dosn't belong, and throw it in the cart. Then you run to the baskets up front, and sort eveyrthing out by isles. then once you do that, you take baskets, run around realy fast, and put everything back. The problem comes when my manager says "Hey, I'm not staying past 9:30 (which was when we both got off work). Then after saying this, goes off and grabs another 2 carts full of crap. and brings them back for me to do.

one cart of which was mostly socks. When you are recoverying an isle, and there is stuff in the isle that belongs on THAT isle, then you are supose to pick it up, pleace it back in its spot, then face around it. but when my manager went down the sock isle, instead of putting them back her self, She threw them in a cart for me to handle later.

Neadless to say, we didn't get out of there untill 10:30, and hour after we where schedueled.

Are people so brainless.... Or just lazy?

Today I worked a tough shift, I was scheduled from 5:30PM to 9:30PM. I bet you know whats coming. Your right, I ended up working until freaking 1:30 AM. My normal hours are 4am-8am, and I usually get out at about 9am. But tonight I worked recovery, which by the way folks, its more fun to run through thorn bushes.

As you may all ready know, recovery is the process of filling shopping carts by running around the isles and grabbing things up that don't belong or that have fallen on the ground. Today we filled 4 shopping carts. Then comes the best part, sitting there with 5-10 baskets, and taking everything out and organizing it into piles of like items, such as toys,personal,holiday,electronics, food candy, food non candy, and food canned, etc, etc.

Then of course you have to run around and put it all back.

BUT!! this is not why I am posting tonight. There is something that I thought about while talking to my good friend Devan. I was explaining to him that when I started working at this store, They basically threw me out on the floor without any training or any kind of walk through or any thing of the sort. So basically I knew where NOTHING was, other then general ideas due to our naming system.

The problem with this, is that I being an employee, it is my job to help customers when they need something. So being the good worker I am, I help out the pour lost little shoppers. But what this whole topic is about is those people who come up to me and go "where is your shaving creme" I think to my self "well, Ive haven't seen that here before" thus meaning I have no clue where it is. After a mere 5 seconds of looking down the center of the isles I spot the isle which contains the item.

After leading the customer over to the item, they thank me, and I tell them that if they need anything else to feel free to ask. The reason for the post comes here. How do "I" a new employee, and fairly intelligent person, figure out where an item is without the help of anyone else. Yet when it comes to persons shopping in the store, instead of taking the 10 seconds or so to look around, they spend roughly a minute, if not More, looking for an employee.

Then they just so happens to pick the employee that knows nothing about the item in the store, who just so happens to find the item they couldn't find, in less then 5 seconds. To them I am a trained pro, to me, I used logical elimination.

Store shelf's aren't randomly placed folks, they are organized in such a fashion to make it essayer on everyone. So knowing this, let me ask. I run into roughly 20 people working a normal 4 hour shift. If 10 people see me and ask for and item that I have no clue where its at, yet I find it in under 10 seconds, that makes 1/2 the people who shop at the store I work at incapable of using logical elimination. now that is just ONE item. Say those same people see me again, its all most guaranteed that 1/2 of those 20 that didn't ask me the first time, will ask for the first time, or asking for the second time.

My point is, when it comes down to it 90% of people who go to the store lose the ability to use basic item elimination. Is this because they don't know any better? Are 90% of people who go shopping idiots? Or perhaps are the 10% who go on without the help of employee's the ones that aren't lazy?

Most people figure that people like me are walking through the store, not only to do what I'm there to do, but also to help them. When the fact is, I'm doing recovery, the job that makes running through thorn bushes a vacation. Do you really think I want to stay longer to do what I have to do, because I had to help customers who where unable to do basic elimination?

today I stayed until 1:30AM, That was not very fun, Thus making me think about the whole thing I just ranted on about. So the next time you are shopping in a store, please oh please take a few seconds out of your day to take a look around, instead of instantly walking around to find people who do what I do. Its not hard, just think about groups + breads + wheat's(grouped), candy, soda, chips, fatty foods (grouped) Ifs not that hard folks, Deodorant, shampoo, lotion, toothpaste(grouped)

Its very simple if you take a few seconds to use your brain, so once again, please use it next time.

Thanks.

Getting a job

OK, So lately Ive been looking around at billions upon billions of jobs, give or take a few billion. Ive come to notice one thing about trying to get a job. Every freaking job you apply for basically wants you to have experience before they will hire you. This leads me to this thought.

How are you going to get experience working, If every job is requiring you to have experience to work.

This makes NO sense whats so ever. I can understand if someone wants you to have some experience for being a manager or something of that sort, But in all honesty does a person who is going to stock shelf's relay need experience?

I think the whole working thing/Getting a job thing is way to complicated, people take it way to serious, and make it so much harder then it needs to be.
