It makes me so angry when you complain about working.
First off, you get paid so well and you enjoy what you do. I work at fucking Pier1, okay? There are no paying jobs for someone my age in the department I'm working towards. It's all internships. And it's for stupid shit that I don't want to do. I don't want to be working in an office for 8 hours a day. That's horrific. I live with the "what if I die tomorrow?" philosophy.

Then, you complain about your "long hours". For you, "long hours" is like four hours. Five hours tops. You just worked maybe five hours and you're like "I will not accept less than $150". $150?!! Like you realize that's more than $30 per hour, right? I could work for 8 fucking hours and make maybe $70. And I'm on my feet all day, dealing with bullshit I don't deserve to deal with.

I don't deserve this. I deserve so much better. You have your life handed to you on a fucking white glove while I'm getting paid $9 an hour to sweep floors all fucking day long. And I cannot afford to fail my classes. I don't have a choice. I'm paying for my own goddamn college. I HAVE to do well.


So stop complaining. Just stop. My life is ten times worse.
