I 'kinda doubt the alien that finds himself employed here in the states starts pricing Purdeys the next day. Heck, I make a little bit MORE than minimum wage, and I don't even look at really good guns.
Funny, everytime I had to move on from a job ( plenty, in recent years, and, it hasn't ever been my fault) I always ended up far better off when it was all over. It didn't seem like it going in, but, it has always ended up that way. And, I've noted in the folks around me, that the same ones always end up crying in their beer over how unfair everything is, and how its always some vague enemy (aliens, etc.) that are causing all the problems they suffer.
Whatever.
Best,
Ted
