The League of Unemployable Bloggers

Well said, it explains a certain perspective very well.

No one likes working the corporate position, some hide it better than others, and some handle it better than others, nothing more. One thing is for certain, it’s better to have a little money than none at all.

Ass kissing is not really a requirement everywhere, hard and reliable productivity wins every time, anywhere. Everything is a matter of perspective including holding yourself hostage to a slavish existence with only one option in mind.

Not to be picky nor take away from your post, but Kate is also an exceptional artist of various mediums. Too good actually to not mention.

Good synopsis
Big companies are govt compliant, awash in political correctness,barren of personal responsibility and ethics.
Safety loons run rampant and workers comp imposes more rule and cost every year.
But this lunacy gets tax incentives to continue.Businesses have little choice, than to appear to comply.
Getting along, flattery and sucking up pay dividends, in corporate workforce and when dealing with regulators.
Same as dealing with cops when getting a ticket.
There is no real shortage of tradespeople in Canada, there is an over abundance of experts preventing us from performing our trades.

Being a non-conformist myself I really get the 'not normal' description.

As the 'possum said to Leo: "What's normal"?

Hey...if you were 'employed', we'd have to get our info from MSM...no way!

cappy, funny U posted that today, as I had a conversation on that very topic with a friend today, who like me, couldn't handle a 9-5 job. I moved away from that drill at about age 30, because I was always telling "boss" to stuff it, I had to change how I conducted my personal life. I have been called a renigade and a missfit many times, as I refuse to fit in. There is nothing worst than having some dimwitt or power hungery jerk barking orders at you:-))))

Brett Kimberline is still causing problems?
I have a Sher-wood hockey stick that would solve that problem.
Might get a penalty. Small price to pay, just saying.

knacker74, you took the words right out of my mouth. Kate is a very impressive artist.

"Just like the "League of Extraordinary Gentlemen" but sexier."

I can see it now - a nude calendar...proceeds to a charity of course. The Ronald Reagan Resurrection and Re-election Foundation, perhaps?

Our civilization was constructed by individuals who, at critical times in history, rose above the crowd. It has been defended by those who raised a flag, rallied the people and persevered, regardless of the price to be paid.

This is such a time.

Currently, the best of the blogosphere is what Freedom of the Press and Freedom of Association were meant to be.

That is why it's a threat to the self-appointed elite of the MSM, and why they are losing audience share and revenue.

Now many of their stories nor originate on the blogosphere?

Creative discontent is the spark that lights the torches that illuminate the paths ahead. If leadership wasn't for the few, it wouldn't be leadership.

Tommy Robinson lanquishes in a U.K. jail as the government attempts to stamp out British Liberty defended by the EDL. Ayaan Hirsi Ali, is a refugee from two continents and lives under 24/7 armed guard protection. The list is long and growing.

The blogosphere carries the tales of their battles far and wide.

The "League of Unemployable Bloggers" are a citizen free press, are now another line of defense in an undeclared war on our way of life.

In it's earliest days, the pamphleteers carted their printing presses each night to stay ahead of those who would silence them with arrest, jail or a hanging. Be glad for their sacrifice, in whose grace you write and live.

Exodus, the struggle for freedom, is an ongoing theme of our civilization, and it always will be as long as it survives.

Jamie - Don't get your hopes up too high. Being a lady, Kate would have the option of submitting a shot of her blog namesake. After all, fur is animals' clothing. I wouldn't look forwards to explaining to my friends at work why I have a calendar with shaved gopher roadkill on it.

Also, would the tire tracks count as clothing, or would they have to come off too?

C_Miner, I believe that is a richardson ground squirrel.

Just saying, no point but to be pedantic.

How is the mining going? Thinking about mine work or oilpatch for the spring, getting my H2S in Feb or March.

Very well put captain thank you as well thank you Kate and all who stand up and do what is right. Not what is right for you just doing what is right.

My favourite blogger is Pamela Geller who really sticks her neck out. I believe she recently had on her site a link so one can help out financially or write to support Tommy Robinson, a real political prisoner. Does anyone know how do this as I believe it was a bit complicated (you want to be sure the money gets to him).

My reasons for (so far) not doing a blog are number one I am not computer savvy; number two I was very disillusioned with politics when the N.D.P. took our riding federally even though the N.D.P. hardly campaigned at all; number three I moved more than a year ago out of Quebec so feel less versed in Quebec politics which was one of the main raisons d'être for blogging.

Slow down and lurk more, is always a good start.(you have two "ears" and one "mouth" listen twice as much as you speak)

Personal agendas don't fly unless you have been around for a while.

Don't comment heavy until you can comment with a light heart.

C_Miner, there is no tire track on that gopher. Just a bullet wound.

Thanks for the advice, I am high skilled, low on certification, showing up is half the battle, I am a very good light duty mechanic, good welder (1/2 C-ticket , long story)
Heavy duty serviceman, mechanic in a pinch (know diesel theory, not much experience)
I'll do fine, I think, just get my basic safety tickets (the annoying common sense ones) and I'm good to go.
A positive attitude and a willingness to learn have always served me well.
Cheers.

One of the reasons I don't blog under my own name is that all my patients would read what I've written and insist on discussing the material when they see me. It's already hard enough running a practice without throwing that additional complication.

One of the nice things about being a doctor is that it's quite difficult to become unemployable if one is competent. I've gotten into speaking my mind enough now that I'm probably unemployable in a large city where political correctness is valued over competency. By moving to a small center with a perennial shortage of physicians, I get to do what I want and am my own boss even when working in a hospital.

The last thing I want to do is to be stuck in an office every day so I have a very varied practice which involves a bit of office work, some specialty clinics and hospital work - the latter is the most fun since I've never been pushed closer to the limits of my knowledge since I left Vancouver for an "underserviced area". Haven't had much luck in recruiting other doctors to come out as they're just too comfortable in big city life and happy with their predictable lives. For me the rush is not knowing what I'm going to face during the day and I'd go insane if I knew exactly what my day would be like every day of the year.

When I get tired of meatware hacking, I can get into hardware hacking but have an expensive habit of ordering microprocessor development systems on the internet during the wee hours of the morning. In short, I'm doing exactly what I want to do and getting paid well for it at the same time.

I've toyed with the idea of starting my own political blog as I only post a fraction of my rants (writing seems to be my way of venting about things that piss me off). For the moment, I'll stay anonymous as it's not yet the time to come out. SDA, Captain Capitalism and other members of the League of Gentlemen Bloggers are just the tip of the iceberg and there are many advantages to anonymity when the leftist Titanic finally hits the Conservative iceberg.

Loki I was the little boy under the truck with his Dad, saying "what does that do?"

Now I say "how fast can I run the rally stage?"

Never gets old for me. But racing eats cars and $$$,and no sponsors without making a name... so a few seasons doing what I can (and am good at) to finance something that I love?
Absolutely.

Varmints beware!

Warning shots are for those who don't know how to aim and shoot.

I'm looking forward to the day that Remington, Winchester or Federal place an advertisement for ammunition on this blog, perhaps some firearms ads, too.

No one else on the Canadian blogosphere is so dedicated to the only logical meaning of the term "gun control" ... being able to hit your target :)

I'll take the nude calendar suggestion into account when the day comes that I wish to drive off readers for good.

I post anonymously because I travel and post from a variety of Muslim and communist countries.

I am in the process of repatriating full time back into Canada this 2013, but now will have to travel far more often into the Obamba Regime than I did in the past.

Experience proves that airports flow much easier, and less intrusively in the Third World dictatorships than Obamba’s police state. Since 2009 I’ve cancelled all but essential business travel to the US.

All that independence crap sounds suspiciously like an excuse to be less
productive. Words don't produce anything. Neither does being a parasite for e-bay.

Anyway, right in line with the leftist agenda, less production, more babbling and
arguing.
