a thing of some
So I just realized something. And by "just" I don't mean within the past five minutes. I mean about maybe five days ago. And I'm sure I was subconciously aware of it, but it just recently dawned on me...you know you're not in a position to succeed in life if your obligation is to constantly kiss ass to the people who treat you like shit. Like at our jobs if a customer comes in and screws up something, it's your responsibility to act as if it was all your pathetic fault and beg for forgiveness and offer them free stuff and grovel for mercy and just completely belittle yourself for their satisfaction.
What the hell kind of life is that?
Anyways, that's how I feel about my job. Because the customer is ALWAYS right, dammit. Your dignity and self-respect as a person doesn't matter to them as long as they're pacified to the point where they'll agree to come back. "I'm so sorry, that was all my fault. Please forgive my stupid actions. Just promise you'll come back and give us your money because that's all you're good for to us."
Am I the only one who finds this absolutely disgusting?
And if you're going to be a decent human being about it and actually stick up for yourself, it'll cost you your job. That's the thanks you get for trying to have a little self-respect. "Don't yell at me. It was YOUR fault. Don't treat me like I'm any less than you just because I work here. Maybe if you didn't have your head up your ass you would've been able to see and avert this situation." bye, job.
One day this will happen to me and I'll have two choices. I could conform to the despotic corporation by lick people's asses and condensing myself to their little servant and feel like shit because of my pathetic self-condescension...or I could have some dignity, stand up for what is damn-well deserved and feel proud of my sense of propriety.
It should be interesting.
