economy-shoconomy

Is anyone else tired of hearing about the economy?!? I am so sick and tired of hearing the words, "In this economy..." What about this economy? People are broke! Our country is broke! WE KNOW THIS...

I am especially tired of companies spending millions of dollars on advertisements that are geared toward people suffering right now. How about NOT laying of thousands of workers instead of spending your money on new advertising that talks about how sensitive they are in this bad economy. So frustrating!

Let's all just sit back, try to save what we do have, and adjust our lifestyle's a little bit. There is nothing wrong with cutting corners. Just be thankful for those who do have jobs and pray that you keep yours. Coming from a company that did do major layoffs, you wonder how else they could have saved money rather than taking away people's jobs. Sorry for the rant, but let's get real people...

  1. agreed! i am tired of hearing about it too! i think it's a great opportunity for us all to save and learn different ways of being creative with money. i hope people will also learn to respect money more than we have been.
