Right?? So many commenters are acting as if these drivers are somehow obligated to work there. Just. Go. Elsewhere. You are not entitled to the perfect job simply because you are alive. What the hell happened to personally responsibility/accountability?

The solution to getting a better job is not simply leaving your current job. A lot of people have a shit job because they can't get a better job. A lot if people are homeless because they can't get a job at all. It's not that damn simple.

Source: white middle class male in San Francisco couldn't get a job for most if 2009, eventually ended up homeless.
