Well, my grandmother who raised me for a number of years taught me that the early bird gets the worm. Then you have the more recent story of the ant and the grasshopper.

When I turned 15, I gave up my part time job and acquired another one which I would work 40 to 48 hour a week in addition to going to school. If I had not worked, I would not have been able to go to college. Worked the same hours during college.

Even later (70s) I rode with my brothers-in-law when they went down to Perry County (Ky.) to haul coal. Good money. It paid well. The only downside was that we had to cross UMW picket lines.

Now people expect everything to be given to them.
