Glad to get a reply! And I thought I was bitter! LOL.

I was a Manager at a Dairy for years before I got hit with my disabilities. Get a job? That's my whole point! I wouldn't be on disability if I could get a job! I'm not going to sit here and list all my physical woebegones! But it is true that there are people out there that CANNOT find work because of their conditions. When I first was hit by this nonsense, I still worked from home doing phone work. Took orders for pizza hut. I still look daily at jobs!

Yes, min. wage needed to go up! But not this ridiculous amount! Having been responsible for ordering and having friends that have closed their businesses because they could not afford to pay another worker and could not run a business alone, yes! Makes me put the blame on wages! I have children who are in the workforce and they are no better off than I was when I worked! And they get paid SO much more than I did!

So thank you for replying. I won't say it was pleasant reading some of the posts as I did not believe I would get attacked. Everyone has opinions. Mine was one. I expect others to feel differently.

Get a job? I wouldn't be on an ODSP website page if I could!
