Coulda Had That Job At Wal-Mart, But..

One difference between men and women is the way we express our vanity. Women's vanity is expressed in their beauty, or lack thereof, men's vanity is pegged to their self-importance.
Back at the contractor bar there's always that one guy on unemployment who, self importance inflated by alcohol consumption, tries to make it sound if he's just too good for any job. Most self-respecting people wouldn't even think of applying at McDonald's or Wal-Mart, but if they turn you down , how are you supposed to feel good about yourself. Well, you make it seem as if you turned them down. Then you can sit at the bar, confident in knowing that you're just so much better than the guy next to you who actually has to wait until three o'clock before he can start drinking.
