Thread: Sick of it all. Off to war.

Well that's your opinion and he has one as well how about showing him how its done then

If you cannot get a job, sit down and have a bloody good look at yourself and sort what YOUR problem is, because most employers are looking for GOOD people and there maybe your prob. Its like owning firearms, jobs are not a right, they are a priviledge!! IMHO.

I have enough trouble with my own staff's problems without looking after anyone else's.

An opinion is evidence/information that has bearing on the issue. Before it can be evidence it has to be relevant and admissible. On that basis you are still wrong about firearm ownership, it is a legal right recognised in legislation. So your opinion is worthless and not relevant - so not admissible, it also has no weight because you are just incorrect.

You are however correct about obtaining a job. Its not a right. Once you have it of course your ability to keep it is controlled by legal rights that apply to both parties.

Opinions are not feelings, nor are they unjustiable thoughts. Opinions are information and analysis coming from competance and capacity, that has bearing on the issue. It has to be relevant before it can be offered. It shouldn't be offered unless it comes from competance.

So you are partly right about one aspect. That would get you about 12.5%.... a bare pass mark for a quarter of the topics covered.

Why is it everyone seems to believe that their opinion actually matters, when all they are doing is saying what they want to think, rather than what actually is?

And dear Sidney before you can become any real practical use, that academic helicopter of yours is going to have to land.

Given the public perception, I am a lone voice....

its all just so sloppy, and I reserve the right to exercise my grumpy old man about the idiotic public perception fed by stupid media that somehow everyones opinions matter. Accurate, relavent and competant opinions matter... the rest is just useless white noise, that demeans relevant contribution and promotes misunderstanding.

Now while firearms ownership is a legal right, I choose to think of it as both a priviledge and a responsibility. That promotes me to be careful and thankful for our legally recognised freedoms.

But don't let some knobby policeman tell me that my legal rights are a priviledge exercised at their discretion. Wrong, they are agent for society to ensure that I meet the requirements of the law in order for me to be granted my rights under the law.

The finer points of that are of course lost on the masses with opinions.

Sorry Sidney i live in the real world..... doesnt mean your wrong.... just not right and employing people has lead me to believe many people are F... wits!!

perhaps after you have explained how I am not wrong but not right and offered reasons for that....I might actually agree with you about a lot of people....

but that doesn't change what reality is irrespective of how you want to feel about it...perceptions are not the measure by which the law is applied....

and you ain't got a mandate on the real world either...

No self respecting Whiskey drinker would ever put coke in it you bloody heathen. There are only two things to mix with Whiskey and that is either more Whiskey or more Whiskey.

Mate I was taught how to drink whiskey by a couple of masters, my father in law, and a real master Rev K Elliott V.C. I was the water boy, easy job as they both had it straight, but liked the blessard water waved across the top first!!
