Let no man despise thy youth...
Well...it's nice to know what being 18 is worth. Not much. I can buy cigarettes, tylenol, porn, fight in the military, but I am incapable of thinking on my own or maturity.
I have always thought of myself as a responsible, mature person, even before I reached the age 18, but alas, I am not.
I never was the type of person who wanted to grow up fast. Actually, I always enjoyed being a kid. I enjoy being a kid now, but I just wish I could get a little respect.
I mean I realize I look young, but I'm not reckless or stupid. I would like to think of myself as logical and intelligent.
Sorry...I'm ranting because basically I get no respect at work. I guess because I'm young they think I'm stupid and don't realize they are treating me like crap. I mean it's not even just me. It's all of the new employees. They expect us to work without air, without breaks, and without the reassurance of having a job the next day.
I know it's just a clothing store, but being threathend to get fired at least once a week is definately not my cup of tea. I come in early, stay late, and even help sell items. Why should my job be threatened?
I understand why it is so vital to get a college education. I think I would commit suicide it was forced to work in a clothing store or fast food place in order to survive.
Maybe I am just too hardheaded and don't like people telling me what to do? I don't think that's the case though. I listen to my managers. I do what they say even when it's stupid. I just don't like the abuse. It's not even really the managers at the store. It's mainly the infamous district manager, that I have yet to encounter. I hope I never do encounter him. I might attack him with a hanger.
To add insult to injury, I also love it how older guys seem to think (or so it appears) that I am too young or immature to understand them or be in a relationship with them. Who knew that being 1-4 years older meant you had an infinte amount of knowledge and life experience? I guess I will just have to wait until I'm OLDER to understand.
I guess I will go to bed and question everything, because I am way too immature and young to understand anything.
