80% of divorces, initiated by wives? Can't help but to suspect, that certain website

could be a plant.  Won't name names, because i don't have proof, just the willies from the self-satisfied posts.  Yeah honey, am really glad your husband provides and protects you.  Reality is: that's less than common.  Girl, ya shoulda heard, (yet another) the conversation that went on yesterday, few seats behind me.  Yep, the topic directly relates to a meeting presentation we had at work, over the net.  Subject was: why the labor shortage - that is, the type of jobs which actually pay enough to make the rent, transportation and put food on the table (fancy that). 

Wow, was all ears.  Why are construction, plumbing, electrical, transport...employers having difficulty finding reliable (young)  people?  Sure, you don't make much starting out in life, welcome to early adulthood.  Anyway, basically knew the reason for the shortage, but was a bit shocked upon hearing the speaker's number one reason.  Opioid (drug) crisis.  And yeah, that stuff is easy to get, and very easy to get hooked on.

But which half of the population becomes addicted?  That was telling!  You'd think getting hooked on pain meds would be the habit of flakey 40-something women.  Ya know, the "weaker vessel," the half which is waay more prone to (just flat out pathetic and stupid) emotional issues than the more rational half of the population.  Oh look around!  Nearly EVERYTHING a woman can do, a Man can do waay better.  Fact of life...deal with it.

And here, per the meeting, it's not the wimpy, over-weight, neurotic, middle-aged (divorced) women who are calling off work, in favor of sitting around all day to "get high and watch the tube" (Steve Miller Band).  Per the meeting, the druggie problem was phrased in  of course, more socio-politically correct terms.  But it was clear enough:  folks ditching work, because it's all about instant gratification.

As for yesterday's conversation:  some dude, preferring crack/coke, brings that monkey to work.  Sounded like he was about to be fired, and it sounded like he was less than worried - his wife "makes the bread." 

80%?  And what's the percent of wives, who are fed up with years of "making the bread" then coming home to a too small kitchen, where making bread is, at best, a logistical nightmare.

Somehow i knew where this was going to go :/

Dede, a lady at church had recommended a book written by, basically a woman preacher - eek!   Anyway, didn't comment - that about the last thing i want to read...  She had gone on to say that the writer's son had recently come out of the closet.   Can't say i was overly surprised.  The writer wasn't the first female preacher-type, whose son jumped the fence - and apparently, she had blathered on about "acceptance."  

Needful to say, Dede commented that, yeah, a mom will love and accept her child.  But, she - in no uncertain terms - does not approve of that li[F]estyle.  Dede has a relative who is of that bend.  She loves the relative, but he is not welcome to bring over his same-sex toy - that ain't happening.

While i think it wise to keep words few - especially over the internet, sometimes things need to be plain communicated.  Nuf said - for now :)
