I live in the US, where they claim to have high job rates, but the truth is, many are jobs not fit for people that SHOULD be done by robots, but if they let robots do it, the towns would have very few jobs...

I am an awful, awful man. 

Hey, I know this will probably be an unpopular view, but I'd give the money back. Just make up some bullsh*t excuse and give it back. I could go on and on about why, but in short, psychologically you'll be better off if you do.

That's why I love having very little remorse or empathy.

Giving the money back is not about avoiding remorse, but about avoiding the pyschological corruption of hypocrisy.

I don't think everyone is, just most. Of course this is on various levels, so i think it would depend on your deffination of the word.

This is an excerpt from a really funny book called '100 Crap Jobs' available in the UK. I really recommend it, esp the ones on the Night Petrol Attendant and the Cabin Crew Assistant.. Puts it all into perspective, and makes me glad I run a Youth Hostel, even if I do clean the bogs every day!!
