Why don't kids work anymore?

[Trance]

We recently got a shitload of snow, and rather than getting my lazy ass up to go shovel it, I have been waiting for some rotten kid to knock on my door and offer to do it.

Yes, I am a bum.

However, I've noticed that the show-shoveling, lawn-mowing, leaf-raking breed of kid had become extinct. Why? Are they all independently wealthy, or are they all selling crack?

This means that I am going to have to get off my ass, find some gloves in the Bermuda Triangle that is my closet, and freeze for an hour. Damn.

That sucks. Usually most neighborhood teens will do anything for a buck - like above mentioned tasks. Maybe you could put an ad in the neighborhood paper if there is one.

I don't know whether to laugh at that or not!!!

I don't want them to make Nikes, I just want them to shovel my snow.

I need a shovel for all the shit my GF gives me everyday.

all the kids I know are broken too. I remember back in the days when kids worked, the place was so much nicer.
