Older people don’t understand these new jobs you can’t really listen to them.

From @TheQueenofKush:

Let's think about it. Lashes are a luxury service. In a recession, luxury items go first. I'm not saying teaching is recession proof but I understand having another career that isn't as expendable as a BACK UP. And yes, entrepreneurs can save but it would still be very hard.

@itsthewealth4me commented:

Not surprised there is a theory among a certain group of people that unless you are working to the bone you are not really working even if you make more money. It’s that people don’t value non laborious work. As long as people have eyes she’s good lol
