Home / Observations / Get Job Soon Cards
I was looking for a birthday card last night at the local box store and stumbled on a little treat… A sorry the economy hates you card.
I know they make cards for practically any occasion, but this one doesn’t quite make sense. Take a look at it for yourself.
I would have bought one for my unemployed brother if the inside said
“I would have sent balloons but mom said you might hang yourself.”
Instead, the message was pretty lame. The inside of the card said something dumb like “How’s about ‘It’s my treat’” to imply that the sender was willing to buy a pity meal for their friend.
I don’t get the point? Is it to rub it in your friends face that while they don’t have a job, you have enough spare change to drop a few bucks so you can send them a piece of mail to remind them that they are living on government handouts? If so, I’m all for it.
