66. There's a lot of hostility toward parents here

which is exactly what I always expect. That said, there's give and take -- at my job, there's plenty of overtime, but I can't take it, because I have to watch my son. The single people at my job are taking vacations in exotic locales and buying late-model cars, because they can suck up the overtime. They also get to work the shifts that pay premium, because they're at night or early in the morning or on Sunday. I should complain that it's not fair that late and morning hours are premium.

And, of course, I'm thrilled to see the comments that equate pets with children, once again. Fucking insane.
