question: Do you think people (as children/young adults) actually aspire to be garbage men, janitors, or other blue collar professionals? Personally, I've never heard one say "I want to be a janitor when I grow up." it's just something I ask myself alot...don't free post my topic dammit lol...I also don't mean to offend anybody...it's just a question...

the hell? how is being a custodian / janitor like , or even close, to being a crackhead? i understand that those jobs aren't very desireable, but they are jobs. that's not right, comparing (usually) hard working cleaning people to drug users.

I'd rather go into the Army. I say that with hesitation.
