Some people are just contrarian and never happy. I used to work with an old grumpy Italian guy who would always bitch and bitch about GW Bush. "most horrible president ever", blahblahblah (and he wasn't wrong on some issues), but then Obama got elected and it was the same thing "worst president ever...."

Then in another job before that I knew a fellow countryman who was given a green card by the UN as refugee because supposedly he had gone to jail in the old country (never told me what he did) and he would stay in a jail cell that was only about 4 feet high and subjected to daily beatings to the point where he was begging to be killed.

You'd think he'd be happy to be brought to the US 100% free, given a green card, $1000 cash, food stamps, and could get free tuition to take classes and such. I mean, at the very least it's better than daily beatings, right? Turns out no.

This guy always complained about how horrible the US is and how nobody gives a crap about "us" and "it's all politics", whatever that meant. Such a horrible life that he had to work 4 hours a night, 3 nights a week and take orders from another foreigner. I still run into that mofo some 15 years later - he's one of those guys you see at bars who walks through selling $5 pizzas to drunks. Actually, I'd pick daily beatings over selling pizzas to drunks too.

Couldn't agree with you more, it's the nature of the beast. I know people who will take a kidney and a lung from you. This same person will ask you months later for $20 and if you say no, they will go on to claim that you have never done ANYTHING in life for them. Ungrateful, and sense of entitlement is an ugly trait.
