Do you ever sit back and think about them and what they must go through on a daily basis.

more examples include drug dealers, factory workers, farmers, etc.

No, I don't feel sorry for them, because they may be satisfied with what they're doing, and that's what matters. (As long as they're not harming someone else.)

My husband and I have both been homeless or with a home but too poor to buy much food (even with foodstamps) and we went to the food banks for 'donated food' ... MOST OF IT WAS NOT GOOD FOOD ... people give 'outdated' cans they should throw away, broken (smashed) pasta, mixed dried beans that need different amounts of soaking and cooking time ... even vegetables they don't want to eat because they are wilted and dried out. When I give to a foodbank (which we do regularly) I go to the store and buy NEW basics ... boxes of pasta (the best they have, too), NEW cans of food, fresh flour, fresh vegetables, canned meat and canned juices, baby food in all varieties ... then I take it and drop it off with a 'I hope this helps' and a big smile ... if I hang around, I tell the people that we once were where they are, and we have money now, so we are just 'paying back' what we were given ... and people hold up their heads and think that they are just 'down for awhile' instead of being 'down forever' ... it's not SELFISH to feed a person who needs food ... an old person, a worker, a mother, a father, a child ... PEOPLE DESERVE TO GO TO BED FEELING FULL AND KNOWING THEY'LL GET FULL THE NEXT DAY, WEEK, MONTH, YEAR. Donate GOOD FOOD (even if it means you must eat a bit less for a day or two a month) and the world will be a BETTER PLACE for ALL of us!

How are you comparing a fast food worker to a prostitute ?
Whats wrong with being a truck driver if they work hard and enjoy the road and are a good family man ?
Strippers I think its tasteless and degrading but their choice ...
Bums ... is it by choice or circumstances ?
Thank God for Janitors or public places would be gross....
Every legal job is important... if there were no fast food workers there would be no fast food, no truck drivers.. no groceries in the stores....no strippers ... no divorce court..lol...Drug dealing isnt a profession its a crime.... A factory worker creates products and if there where no farmers ... starvation would happen quickly.

My husband is a truck driver. I dont feel sorry for him. He works hard and we have a very good living because of it. He never unloads a truck. He just drives from point A to point B. We joke and carry on that I work harder at home with 4 kids than he does on the road. Truck drivers, if with a good paying company, make a good living. We are well adjusted to this. It pays are bills and then some.

The way I see it, though, to each their own. They choose how to make their living. My hubby has been driving for 8-9 years.

i absolutely feel bad for the janitors, fast food workers, and sometimes truck drivers. when you say bums i would feel bad if they were uneducated and poor. but for the strippers and prostitutes i just laugh at. they are on the wrong track and pathetic.

what's so bad about being a truck driver? It's just them and the open road and no managers breathing down their neck all day. Over here they make about £500 a week aswell.

As a stripper, I would just like to say...please. Please. Do NOT feel sorry for me. It really seems obscene to be taking much needed sympathy when I make hundreds of dollars a night at a very fun job.

Also,this question comes off as rather condescending. Many people enjoy their chosen fields.

hmm.

This is America. They've got the same shot at success as everybody else. Everybody goes through sh*t on a daily basis.
