have hotels paid for by their company up-front,
can refuse to do anything they are asked to do,
can plan their life more than a month in advance,
can choose to live where they want, are trusted to wipe their own backside,
Have a credit rating that doesnt have a plethora of addresses on it,
Dont have to move house every 2 yrs,
are not working 2 jobs but getting paid for one,
are not sent on bollocks courses,
can travel anywhere in the world without telling an adult,
can make decisions for themselves,
can provide their children a stable home life,
2 schools for their children’s entire education,
attend every wedding/birthday/funeral,
Never be asked to take a life,
and perhaps most of all never get shot at or put directly in harms way at the whim of a politician....
