It doesn't offend me...

You know, when you are doing the best that you can, and trying to do more than that, and someone just lays into you like it's all your fault and that you're to blame, that doesn't offend me.

Sure, go ahead and call me a retard and say that I'm poor and that I'm a dumbass that probably drives a Honda Civic. Let me know that my best course of action is to go kill myself. Go right ahead, but when you do that, at very least have the common decency to spell what you are saying correctly.

Sure, you're mad, I get that. I do. Sure you think I'm a piece of shit, I get that too. I really do. For fuck's sake if you are going to ask if I'm a retard please do not say "IS U RETARDED?!" This immediately makes me think that it is in no way my own mental capacity that is making your day a living shit hole. (Shithole? I don't know.) Also, please do not assume that I drive a Honda Civic. I will go ahead and state that I really like those cars. Though it would seem that with the right wording you are implying that I am of a certain ethnicity or a certain mindset. It also implies that you think that all of the people that drive Honda Civics are beneath you.

I would like to think that I am in a damn good place with my job and where I live and what I drive and who my friends are and my current level of education. I would also like to think that I may in fact be going somewhere with my life with this job. Sure, it's possible that I'm not, but I'll be damned if I'm not working for one of the coolest fucking companies on the goddamned planet and you aren't.

Fuck you "Person Ten," fuck you. I sat though half an hour of you sitting there with capslock on screaming at me because you got your ass handed to you by someone who happed to find a way to work the system. Granted it is quite possible that that person is cheating, but that doesn't mean that you get to make assumptions about me or my lifestyle. Please also remember, as I do every single day that I run into people just like you, that this is a fucking game. If something happens in a game where you feel that your life is going to go straight down the shitter, then I do believe that there is someone else that needs to review their lifestyle and their choices and it sure as fuck isn't me.

Sure, I said at the beginning of this post that this stuff doesn't offend me. I never said it didn't affect me in some way. I'm sitting here writing about it aren't I? This is the first time in my new job that I have had someone get under my skin. Sure there were others that were close, but none of them as bad as this guy. Doesn't mean he's getting shit from me though.

I still love my job, I still think that it's the best one on the fucking planet, and I still think that I never want to leave. The day that changes because of you "Person Ten," any of you, then you have won. If you are picking up what I am throwing down, then please understand that I fight dirty, and I fight to win. Game on "Person Ten." Game on and fuck you.
