Ok im talking to this lady for a life line phone. Life line is for people who are recieving gov assistance. Im going over the plans and all is well until this lady asks me what black berry phones we have available. :eek Nothing under 250! She really wanted one. So I explained to her that she wouldnt be able to use the phone, because the lifeline service doesnt offer any data service to their phones. So basically she would be buying a big ass phone. She had me look into that. Thinking I wasnt correct with my information....yeah right. Been doin this shit for 5 years dammit. So I put her on hold and posted some stuff on here, I then went back and told her I was right.

Then! She asks me about the price of razors. 129.95. She bought a 130 dollar phone and gets a 38.50 discount on her plan? AND she got a 30 mail in rebate on the phone! Geesh! I thought these people were supposed to be hurtin for cash! Makes you wonder. Sorry to rant. I just thought that was weird. :cool

I have been dealing with rental properties for a while now. When the government pays for peoples housing they should be required to own a car with a blue book value no higher than $2500. Seriously, Cant pay rent on a house but can pay rent on a new lincoln navigator and at the same time a new cadilac STS.......WTFFFFFFFF. I can bairley aford the insurance on my truck and I dont have the car note cause its payed off. I really feel taken advantage of by these people. Maybe they have no money...but they are making no atempts at getting off of welfare.

my partial rant on the subject

Just have Deb kick you in the shin repeatedly, then limp in and apply for a handicapped sticker.

hmm. I was on food stamps about 3 years ago. I won't lie, the first time I got my food stamp card we kinda went crazy. We had been eating nothing but ramen for 6 mos, so we bought a whole bunch of hungry man microwave dinners and burgers and shit...keep in mind i had no idea how to cook back then...not even spaghetti lol. So really you can't judge unless you know the circumstances...
