I am single, work 40 hours a week, go to they gym 6 nights a week, attend community meetings and volunteer for local events whenever I can, in addition to taking care of a house and a yard. I am not on unemployment, and I do not use nor need governmental assistance, nor care to put myself in that position.
I have several friends for various reasons are not working, and either are collecting social security, welfare, or some kind of "free ride." They go out almost every night and dine in nice restaurants, and play on the computer all day and night. They never volunteer their free time (and have lots of it) for anything!
Am I wrong for feeling like I can't relate to these friends anymore, because I am always tired after work, and I have so much I have to do on the weekends, that I can't go out and play? Am I wrong for feeling bitter? I feel they are taking advantage of a system that is intended for the very old, or very ill, and those in dyer need.
I would like your opinion
