Pimp My Ride Was Insane

Комедия

Today we're looking at one of the most highly requested shows for me to watch on the channel, Pimp My Ride. It's definitely insane and weirder than I remember, but I love it. We're gonna look at two episodes, one is the very first episode that aired, and the other is an episode from season 5. I wanted to compare both episodes and see how much they differ, they're both insane. Anyways enjoy!

    Nah it's believable for the time period that this was filmed. You're very fortunate to have only experienced 2016 onward where the economy has been great and jobs are everywhere. Back during the recession years when you had 1200+ applicants lining up for every single job opening, you had to work really hard to keep your job or else they'd replace you in a heartbeat. Working for Orlando Regional Medical Center at that time I saw on more than one occasion employees being fired for being 1 to 3 minutes late, forgetting to clock in, forgetting to clock out, and so on. One LPN I remember in particular was involved in a not at fault vehicular accident and required 8 days off from work. She was fired and replaced within 3 days.
