person A: One big pet peeve of mine is a poor person complaining about his/her situation and doing absolutely nothing to fix it
person B: i get that. i am in pain every morning and get up and go to work everyday. so it's hard to find sympathy from me
person A: My point exactly.  You're a hard worker despite your physical pains.  I was born in a third world country and am now self-employed with full financial autonomy_comma_ my own car_comma_ apartment_comma_ and supportive friends and family...DON'T TELL ME you can't fix your life. You just don't want it bad enough
person B: exactly. it really drives me nuts when people feel like they entitled to this or that.
