Maybe this is a problem that only exists in my neck of the woods, but it could be 12:01AM on Black Friday and there is no more than four cashiers working at a time. They always tell me that a bunch of people just quit -- I'm not buying that. It cant be that hard to find someone who wants to work in Flint.

So maybe this job never really existed, it's still fun to pretend, right? Believe it or not that's the thing a majority of non-Michiganders identify our city with most (well, aside from crime) -- a fictional basketball team from a Will Ferrell movie.

When I say road worker, I'm not talking ladies who work on the side of them -- we still have plenty of those -- I'm talking about the guys that repair the roads. Maybe this job does still exist but it sure as Hell doesn't feel like it when I'm driving down Center or Belsay Roads on my way to work. I can't say that I don't understand though -- I wouldn't want to do any job where there were signs posted that basically say how much it will cost if you kill me. $7,500? That will barely pay for the funeral.

There are only a handful of cops on patrol in Flint right now, like single digits. Think about that for a minute...now that you've locked your door and finished loading your gun -- you may want to consider relocating if law enforcement is your career of choice.
