Yeah. When you walk up to your kid and say "to get a job" it will become clear that you are the intelligent, successful one in the relationship. Thanks, Ben.
interesting observation Sitboaf. it is a special kind of insensitivity to tell anybody to just "get a job" in this climate. I know plenty of people who would love one, thanks.
Please send your submissions via email to bethanykeeley (at) gmail.com. I look at them all, but it might take a while to get to yours -- sorry! I love you all, but I only have so much energy in a day.
If you want your picture to make the blog DO NOT @tweet them, or leave them in a comment. I need them all in the same place. Make sure your emails are easily distinguishable from spam or viruses (I use gmail web interface, so images get previews).
I don't usually post the following: newspaper headlines, personal email, craigslist postings, unprofessional websites. I also tend to not crosspost things from other blogs, since I have so much unique material waiting for me to get to it.
Things I see a lot: silica gel "do not eat"; hair dryer labels; inside the bus "do not drill"; Wal-mart sign about IDs; coffee machine with "2" cup sizes; employees must "wash hands"; that failblog post.

perhaps it is intended as an opening salvo, as in: to get a job one must make applications....
Young people weren't ever called "slackers" until the recession in the early 90s. Funny how that term is in use again.
It's the economy, stupid.

You people are missing the point. The "to" is also within the quotation marks. Get it now?
yeah, I thought it would make sense not to include "to" in the quotes. More than likely one would say "get a job."
"to get a job" one must not design a sign such as this. It's a game. Your kid has to finish the sentence.
wow, great to see this...
thanks for sharing....
