Wife listens to NPR, so I've gotten a does of that liberal claptrap. If you like NPR, you're a liberal. Being left wing they of course would refuse to report anything that makes a far left movement look bad.
Obviously you must kill her. Come on Spidey, this is the day that you and your brethren have prepared for! Are you really going to allow an obvious infiltrator to thwart all of your plans and hard work? Are you just going to lie down and give the enemy a huge victory that will bring them closer towards their end goal?
You know what you must do.
She still curses up a storm when the president is on the TV so she gets a pass. Nothing will get her more angry and raged than listening to the president. Nothing.

Sounds like somebody isn't taking care of business if she is so high strung like that.
As long as she brings home the government bacon so you can sit all day and bitch about all the bad people out to take from you -it's all good.
"I was laid off in 2008. I have a total of $60,000 in savings for the rest of my life. I'm screwed," said Dunn Miller, 67, an unemployed librarian from Oakland. "No one will hire me. They take one look at my face and say, 'No thank you.'"
I really don't think this bothers him at all. You're effectively paying him to sit there and laugh at you.
This quote pretty much encapsulates my problem with this movement:

Well that, and whatever else BS right wing media elite 1% pukes out you post daily to crap on fellow Americans. *yawn*

When, ever, in the history of the United States was a 67-year-old with a career as a librarian ever a hot commodity? What's his beef, that age discrimination and bad career choices be abolished?
The entire movement just seems to me like a way for every sad sack out there to air their grievances and nothing more.
Ahh yes, part of the usual right wing authoritarian rant- belittling one's "social inferiors". It's an extremely repulsive trait.
Librarians serve a legitimate social and economic function, unlike some of the high earners who basically milk the system for whatever they can get. Civilization would come crashing down if nobody would carry off the garbage, but it'd do just fine if the heads of the fortune 500 all died in their sleep the same night...
It's not like there's an enormous chasm in skill sets, salary, or ego boost between a librarian and a Starbuck's barista. You telling me none of the 100+ Starbucks in Alameda County would hire this guy if he applied? I see old people working in SBUX and other franchises all the time.
The librarian career path is doomed regardless. Why doesn't he protest Apple, Microsoft, or UC Berkley for technology killing his trade. Why bitch and complain at mythical "the 1%" boogeymen when that has fuck all to do with why he's out of a job?
Academic courses in library science include collection management, information systems and technology, research methods, cataloging and classification, preservation, reference, statistics and management. Library science is constantly evolving, incorporating new topics like database management, information architecture and knowledge management, among others.
Most professional library jobs require a professional post-baccalaureate degree in library science, or one of its equivalent terms, library and information science as a basic credential. In the United States and Canada the certification usually comes from a master's degree granted by an ALA-accredited institution, so even non-scholarly librarians have an originally academic background. In the United Kingdom, however, there have been moves to broaden the entry requirements to professional library posts, such that qualifications in, or experience of, a number of other disciplines have become more acceptable. In Australia, a number of institutions offer degrees accepted by the ALIA (Australian Library and Information Association).

You have no idea what you're talking about, and are actually belittling highly skilled professionals holding advanced degrees-
librarians have been replaced by google

There is actually a lot of difference, a big part of which is schooling, the kind you obviously skipped to be so dense.
According to U.S. News & World Report, library and information science ranked as one of the "Best Careers of 2008." The median annual salary for 2007 was reported as $51,400 USD in the United States, with additional salary breakdowns available by metropolitan area, with San Francisco coming in the highest with an average salary of $64,400 and Philadelphia the lowest at $48,200.
I use my local library a few times a week. Google can not replace (yet) finding archival materials and historical books on subjects somewhat rare. The internet is still quite immature with the amount of information going back, and usually has a "echo chamber" feel for what it has absorbed so far that can distort indepth research.

PS: A barista can earn $45k + benefits @ five hours a day + two week's vacation a year. Comparable to a librarian and equally a dead end career.
Did you need a librarian to find the books?
I broke down the math and can't get up to 45k
A barista would need to make 21.63/hour for during a standard year (40hrs/week x 52 weeks) to make 45k
if a barista makes 21.63/hour base + tips...
