                Did anyone else notice Denis' wife Amy (I hope thats spelled correctly) was the clerk in the video? I believe she works at Scheels.

                  Hell, I have a solid 8-5 job that I love and I get paid enough to cover all of my expenses (rent, bills, auto loan, insurance on 2 vehicles) yet working for $8.25/hr isn't above me because I spend a lot of evenings and weekends doing just that.

                  As far as the video... Its great that the region thus far has gone through the recession fairly unscathed however even since early on I've been worried about these companies that extend in great part beyond the region (DMI, CNH, Bobcat, etc) and the possible domino effect we'll experience as a result of their struggles.

                    Working at DMI, and seeing what they have had to cut back recently is disturbing. Even from the point of when i started, last August to January, things changed. As soon as the new orders came in for 2009, and there was only one company that ordered, as opposed to the usual 2, maybe 3, we knew something was up. They are going down fast, and need to fix it quickly. Bobcat is the same way. I worked there for 3 summers, as summer help, and every summer i went, it got worse and worse. I am from Gwinner, where the main Bobcat plant is located, and i know how it would effect that area of the state if that place closed or moved. The entire county (Sargent), would become ghost towns. Fargo would take quite a hit as well.

                                Well you must give a fuck considering the fact that you keep bitching about not having a job. Holy shit.
