Go Fund Me...

I know a lot of people probably won't agree with me, but I am sick of seeing the gofundme.com posts in my facebook feed. I know a lot of people set them up for valid reasons, such as care for their special needs children, but some people who are setting them up could easily help themselves. I have no issue with the people who are using gofundme.com to help their children, I'm annoyed by the people who are using this as an excuse not to work. I recently saw one that said one part time job isn't cutting it. Why can't the person who made that get a second part time job, a full time job, or a better job? I know it's hard to find jobs, but right now a lot of people are hiring seasonal workers. It shouldn't be incredibly hard to find a job. I also know that it's hard working two jobs. I've done so myself, more than once. Whenever I go through hard times I find a second job, or do whatever I can to get myself out of that situation. I don't have kids though. It would be different if the people asking for money had kids, but they don't. I can understand wanting to provide a great Christmas, but what I can't understand is someone who is completely healthy and capable of working a second job, or looking for a better one, but they ask for money instead. Why should I give you my money? I work pretty hard for my money, and I know I can't understand your point of view. I work when I need money, and I am also enrolled in school. I know that I'm not supposed to judge, but it is hard for me to understand why someone who is only working part time wouldn't seek another job. I would feel ashamed to ask online strangers to give me money. That's just my two cents, I'm sure not everyone agrees with me. I just felt like I had to get that off my chest. I do think gofundme.com is a great tool, if used right and not abused.
