      My mum has just been diagnosed with terminal cancer aged 61. I know people lose their parents much earlier, but I am furious that she worked so hard her entire life just to die before she reached retirement.

      You work work work to barely afford necessities like shelter and food and when you finally can enjoy your life, you’re old. Brilliant system.

      You load sixteen tons, what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt. St. Peter, don’t you call me, 'cuz I can’t go. I owe my soul to the company store.
