This may have meant to be a light-hearted topic, but it stirred thoughts I've had along these lines in a more-serious vein . . .
I couldn't work in a rent-to-own place.
I understand the arguments about providing a service to people with bad credit. But I could not in good conscience add to their problems by cooperating with their out-of-kilter priorities.
I know there are others in different situations for whom rental of furniture, appliances, and entertainment systems is justifiable. But "I" couldn't work in a setting that will only continue to exacerbate (sp?) someone's desperate situation.
