Because they are talking shit. Until their punk ass gets laid off or fired. They'd collect food stamps too if they could. As much taxes as I've paid over the years while working. I'll take whatever if I have too.

Oh Shit
I think Pimp means selling on ebay and buying and shipping as a gift from Amazon.
OK Darkman, what do you do and how do I get in?
HUH?
selling shit on ebay the going to Amazon to purchase it and ship it to the ebay buyer. Is that what you do? Check the link in the OP.
Sell a guitar on ebay.
Ebay buyer makes a bid
You go to Amazon to find it cheaper.
You buy it from Amazon and ship it to the ebay buyer.
The ebay buyer gets a box from Amazon and reports you to ebay.
You get shutdown.

Stop it , Billy. You're a w2 employee too.

This is how it happened for me, but since I was working for a temp agency at the time I couldn't collect unemployment.
In 2004, I was off on Wednesday, and came into work add American Express Car Rental loss and damage on Thursday at 11:30, a half hour before my shift. The supervisor Dan call me into the office.
You know when you get called into the office before your shift it's the death knell.
"Godofwine were terminating you
We've got you on the phone recording using an English accent (actually, Dumbass, it's a British accent). Oh, that's not what we do here..."
I saw it coming, and started fast talking. I mean, talking like Ferris Buehler.
"Dan. Dan. I'm so sorry. It was a mistake (I'm able to do several voices, and accents. I had a voice acting gig last year where I made $200 for 10 minutes worth work as Lando Calrissian, but at the time, I was broke) I won't do it again. I swear I won't do it again. Please, please, please don't fire me. I swear it was a one-time thing. I won't do it again."
Dan's eyes softened. I thought he was hearing me. That is uncommon, but I went with it. He said okay, and let me walk back to my desk, and not to collect my things.
He let me work. I work Thursday, Friday, Saturday. Sunday was my day off and my birthday and I came home to a message on my voicemail telling me not to come into work on Monday.
Yes, like Craig on Friday - I was fired on my day off.
It was a real fucked-up situation. I had no way to pay my rent except for my Navy Reserve check of $235 a month. Thankfully, two months later just as I was running out of money, I found the government job I'm in right now. Now, I make more than twice what I was making there.
Sometimes, things you think of the time are bad, are really a blessing in disguise.
There was no way to advance at that place. I would have been making $10 an hour working telephones until the cows came home. Getting fired gave me the kick in the ass I needed.
At my current government gig, after being deployed in 2006 I returned and got promoted to another department in 2007, promoted again in 2009, and again to another department in the 2011.
In 2015 I started my own business, set up my LLC, got my EI Number and everything). And now that my credit score has gone up, it was in the high 500's after a divorce, I'm about to apply for a loan next month to get the company, a Transportation business helping handicapped people to their appointments, going.
In the past 6 months they have unjustly fired two people in my department. This business will give me the freedom just in case and these motherfuckers want to get froggy and leap. I'm like the other two guys who got fired, I'm going to get and lawyer and not allow the useless... Pardon me, the Union to fight for me.
If all goes well for my business, I plan on retiring from my government job in 4 years which will give me 20 including my military time.

Good motivation Bueler!
Just fucking with you G0W. Agreed, when one door closes another one opens. I'm studying / taking classes and looking at opportunities.
It's all cool, fam. I'm also doing this writing thing if I can stay still, sit my ass down and do it.
From typing on here I learned about Colin Powell, and how to make shit funny, or interesting so that people don't realize they just read some long shit. Learning how to space shit out, use paragraphs, break shit up to make it easier to read.
Once I get my transportation biz going, I'm coming on here letting folks know how to do it. Right now, there are more people out here needing rides than companies able to provide them. AND most of the companies out here are doing shit crazy illegal. I'm getting established and SNITCHING like Chauncey
