Good Questions #1

On this post of Good Questions, I want to answer a single question that is on everyone's mind when creating a blog such as this.

Why in the hell am I doing it and what for?

The simple reason is this.

I like to tell stories and talk my head off about whatever is bothering me. If it's a bad day at work, I would talk about it. If it's running into the wrong person, I would talk about it. Hopefully, me talking away at my bad experiences would hopefully help them on how to avoid the experiences I have been through, or find a better way at how to approach them.

This is just that. Experiences, whether good or bad, are shared with one another to help gain knowledge of what to do and what not to do in situations. For me, if I see someone go into the woods and get mauled by a bear, I would avoid those woods. Hell, I would avoid zoos altogether if that is the case. For bad jobs, it is treated just the same.

I see a bad job as a loving relationship gone horribly wrong. At first, the lover does sweet things to gain your love, respect, and devotion by making so many promises that they can't keep. Think of it as the mouth writing checks that the ass can't cash. On down this relationship, you notice things that are not right, but you keep going thinking that you are in something good for the long haul. Those sweet promises that were made continue to remain unfulfilled for days, weeks, months even while you play dumb and ignore the signs that you are in a relationship that will not benefit you in the slightest. Then you find that you are stuck in deep shit with the person that would eat away at your very mind, body, and soul while you suckle upon their tit of what little milk that they offer so you can barely survive. Going on weeks and months to no end until you give up and push yourself away, knowing the consequences of striking it out on your own again.

Once you break it off, you feel a wave of despair blanket over you since you don't know where your next support will come from. You also feel happy that you got out of a bad situation that could have went horribly, horribly wrong if you remained with the lover of empty promises.

My experiences are just like that, bits of internet lover drama except this is the kind of drama that could benefit anyone who is willing to listen.

Thanks for taking the time to read, and don't forget to send those questions to realyourjobsucks@gmail.com.

Talk to you next time, and happy job hunting!
