Pumps' Perplexities

Some one hundred years ago it was not uncommon to have
a parent working for a large company which owned the
town, stores and other human needs.....Everything you
earned went back into the company, in one form or another...

In today's times the word MAN has changed to MEN......
While you may get paid from one company for your toil,
you are remitting monies to your auto financial institution,
your mortgage banker and your credit card companies.....

Like in the olde days you are living 'hand-to-mouth'.....Today
it is called 'week-to-week'.......Most people think that living
in this cycle is 'life'.....Many have found out that 'life' really
exists outside of the cycle.....

It does take some sacrifice and effort to leave that 'company
town', but in the long run it is worth it......Just remember, if
the 'factory' burns down does the 'company' give a "flying
rat's behind" about you....They never have and they never
will......Pumps
