Burning the candle at both ends...

Jul 23, 2006 09:23

I'M WORKING TWO JOBS NOW, so it seems that every moment I'm at work, or getting ready for work, or going home from work. It's hard on both of us, but I know that it'll pay off in the end when we live the life we've wanted for so long. Having two jobs is interesting, and as Jesus said, "you will love one and hate the other." I make almost twice as much at my full time job as I do at my weekend job, and my part time job is retail while my full time isn't. This has resulted in a marked increase in my bullshit-tolerance level for customers. Where I used to placate the irrationally angry and morbidly befuddled customer, I now just shrug my shoulders and deliver glib lines because I really, REALLY DON'T CARE. This isn't slackerism, this is an attitude-check for the whiny well-to-dos that come in and expect the midas touch from people who find only copper in their pockets at the end of the month.
