Dawn Bess I have a job in the same industry I have worked for the last 19 years. I make a dollar more per hour than I did 19 years ago because I rely on tips as a hairstylist and the salon owners use that as justification for not raising our salaries. In the meantime, the haircut prices have doubled over the last 19 years, sooo..... who's getting rich and who's not? I work 25-30 hours a week, which is all the salons will give you now a days in order to avoid paying health benefits. I am currently in college to get out of that industry because I have had enough of working harder in one day than these top CEO's work in a month and barely making enough to get by on. I'm a great hairstylist and when I leave, they will replace me with someone 6 months out of school who will jack up everyone's hair but she'll be happy to have the job cuz the economy is in the pooper. It's the way of the world today and for those who have never wanted for anything, I say to you: Keep watching FOX news and perpetuate the status quo so as to not offend your delicate sensibilities......

David Wayne Four words you will never hear at a Occupy meeting.. I HAVE A JOB !!!

I have a job, and I Occupy. Where I live and also both NY and DC. Yesterday at 6:40am · UnlikeLike · 30 Jennifer Williams actually I have a job. Had one since 14. A lot of people I know who support occupy have jobs, probably should try talking to some people since your getting your news down the grapevine Yesterday at 6:40am · UnlikeLike · 26 Barb Graham who are you kidding?

Yesterday at 6:44am · LikeUnlike · 5 Elizabeth Du Bosc David, the correct grammar would indicate: " . . . at *an* Occupy meeting . . .", not *a*. And from what I understand, some Occupy demonstrators have jobs (airline pilots, firefighters, lawyers, doctors, teachers, nurses), and others have been offered jobs (and taken them) due to their speaking out at Occupy demonstrations. Adding these situations to the fact that if "job creators" weren't so busy destroying American jobs, well-paid or otherwise, then there wouldn't be such a need to protest and Occupy, your point is rather . . . pointless and sad. Yesterday at 6:44am · UnlikeLike · 23 Terence Paul Onisko I marched in Occupy Oaklands 10,000 storng with the vets group. We all have jobs and educations.
