OK, scratch that. I'm not gonna miss Starbucks. Even though I had this paper (which I am currently employed in writing), I went in in a great mood and left hurt and angry. I don't know why exactly, I guess most of what bothers me is that in every job I try to be good and efficient, and here, I am called lazy and slutty and God knows what else. And it hurts. I do work hard, yeah sometimes I am not very motivated because I am not a particular fan of the work, but I was raised better than that.
"You would've been a shift if you hadn't screwed up." If by 'screw up' you mean try to do the right thing, try to be efficient and do the best possible job, then yes, I screwed up. I couldn't do this, I am smarter than this. It's hard to keep trying to be the best at a job when you know you are better than it.
And this isn't to sound cocky. It's just not the job for me, it doesn't involve my particular set of skills.
