Hey look it's me!
Let's see, I feel like gripin'.
I hate my job. It is very boring. Working in production is awful. I need responsibilities and challenges, not inspecting parts for hours on end. I only get two hours of free time on Thursday, Friday and Saturday which really blows. My Dad is upset that I didn't want to work more. (I'm working 42 hours a week right now, more than full time.) He wants me to work 16 hours a day, my 12 hour shift plus 4 hours at his shop. I told him no, but he mentioned that it would just get me more money.
I told him life isn't about money. I hated his reply. "If it wasn't about the money, why are you in college?" I wanted to slap him! Going to college is more than just the money. It's about making yourself a better person. Having more experiences and giving you more worth to society. Want a good example? Look at teachers. Shitty salaries, some of them with only 30k/yr. Quite a lot of teachers have master degrees too, and still only make that much. I doubt it's about the money with them.
I mean yeah, money is important. I'd LOVE to have a lot of money, but why have all that money if you're just going to be miserable. I told my dad that. I won't work for him. I want to spend some time being happy. Screw money.
Oh yeah, Vermont is very beautiful. I wouldn't want to live up here though. FAR FAR FAR too liberal up here. I'm waiting for them to set up a drive through abortion clinic. The signs would read, "Children murdering this way!" I don't wanna hear the whole, "It's my body" or "It's just a politcal thing" argument. Sorry, but some people in the world really believe it's murder. PERIOD, nothing political about that. The people up here are all like, "BOO, people in the military die." No shit herlock. That's what happens when people sign up for the military.
The cops here are fucks. Thankfully there aren't many up here.
Most of the houses in the town I live cost over 1 million dollars. Only because they're old, circa late 18th and early 19th century. I guess the land here is really cheap, but good luck developing on it. People here just wont let you. My dad describes the people here as, "Granola crunchers." Hehe. Good term. All liberals. Only two months and one week left of this hell hole.
I have to leave for work in a few minutes, so I better go find my safety equipment and brush my teeth. My mouth feels kinda blah right now.
Till next month!
