This reminds me of a quote from one of my favorite short stories, "The dollar was strong and jobs were plentiful, so when the factory in town announced they were hiring, hundreds of people applied. John was one of the lucky few who got a job. The hours were long and the work was hard, but John was grateful to have a job that paid well. With the extra money, he was able to buy his family a new house."
