The X-Box/PlayStation Work Ethic

Not to paint with a wide brush, but many of the X-Box/PlayStation culture I have witnessed first hand seem to fit this picture. I could see the paint truck going down the road and the painter seeing this stick poking out into the street and thinking, “Dude, I’ll have to actually stop the truck, put it in park, and get out of the truck and move it. I wish I just had my blaster and I’d tap the A button a few times and it’d be gone.”

Yup, that’s about what I imagine the train of thought on that one. But then again, you could call me on this whole scenario and point out that this kind of gamer is probably living at home with mom and dad and they don’t have a job to begin with. Sad, I’d have to say you’re probably right. I’ve seen a couple of them, too.
