I honestly, honestly do not want to go to work tomorrow. For the past month or two, knowing that I'm getting out has been kind of how I get through the day. To know that it won't be much longer there before I'm able to move on. But now all this stuff is going on with Korea. And categorize me as selfish, because this thought definitely is, but I want it all to go away so I can go back. (Now don't get me wrong. I know the big picture, and I want everything to work out because I don't want anyone hurt or the country hurt. This is just a post of me ranting and posting my own little selfishness and why do you have to do this now????)
Now, I have sense. And I do know about history. So I know that these things happen between North and South quite often. And I know that a lot of it is posturing from the North. I know the reasons behind it, the frequency, and all that stuff. What does worry me this time, is that it is happening closer together. And also, that I think it is because a change in regime is happening. I know that it's more for the North Korean people that they do this. I was talking to Melody about it last night and she and I have discussed it quite a bit. It's that everyone else else has to pay for the North's posturing. They have to do this to prove to their people they have strength.And to goad others in to giving them what they want. All because the gov't is ineffective and can't support itself. This will not stop as long as that gov't is in place. I am by no means the perfect person to criticize gov't. Gov't systems interest me quite a lot; I've actually been learning more about them recently. But what I see is that this is caused by a gov't that is failing. And doing everything it can to keep itself afloat. And everyone else is going to pay because they won't change.
I'm welcome to anyone discussing this. When Melody and I were discussing it, we both agreed we loved having discussion like that. It makes you feel smarter XD. But really, it helps you think, makes you think more. and so I love talking with people about these things.
But yeah, just had to get that out. Because I've had the past two days off and as soon as I woke up this morning I was disappointed because I have to work tomorrow. And it's not like my days off are full of activity. I usually get quite bored. But I don't want to go to work either. It has taught me a lot working there, but I'm tired of the fast food business. It is not something I could ever make a career of. And since I don't have the friends there I had working at Target, it becomes much more monotonous and annoying. I'm tired of the brand of stupid that comes through. I think of myself as a person that suck up rather well. XD I understand that some things you have to do just because. You do things to get on someone's good side. Call it what you want, but it serves you in the end. Saturday, my boss told me I was too blunt. I found that quite funny. But I have a limit of stupid and the people in this town are reaching it. I'm tired of dealing with people who just want something free, are picky, and think I'm stupid because I work there. I'm just a little tired of it. And I think my impatience to get out is playing in to my recent bluntness XDD. And that's really the end of this rant.
