My GM told me that, out of everyone, he thought I had potential to be a "great server."

A part of me died when he told me that.


I really wish school/society hadn't taught us that we are "special" and that we should "follow our dreams" I may actually be happy in mediocrity and carrying the status quo, instead of feeling lost and depressed.

Will I always hate my job? is this why the majority of Americans get drunk as often as they do? I had no reason to assume that acting would be a satisfying job, other than the fact that I really enjoy doing it even when not getting paid. Other than that, who knows? Maybe if I actually had a steady acting job, I would be just as unsatisfied as I am with everything else.

probably not

fucking a

I'll never be able to live up to my childhood, and if I ever have children, at this rate I will never be able to give them the quality childhood that I had. Sorry kids, your dad is jaded by the system and is wondering why he allowed you to be brought into such a shithole of a planet. Things are really good when they are good, but the good things always pass into a big pile of mediocrity.

Yup, life sucks. Serving sucks bad.
At least you arent at hardrock anymore. A steakhouse is usually a big step up from hell town.
Managers are fucking morons.
I've been a server for 10 years now, and managers at my last job would still say shit like that to me.
Listen bitch. I'm almost your age. I'm better at this then you are, shut the fuck up.
Is what always played in my head.

Don't have kids, at least not til your well off. Else your entire life will be sad thinking about how you cant provide for them. So be careful not to let that happen yet.

College binge drinking is really bad in ameria, but adult age drinking isnt quite so bad as other countries. Any friend i've had thats traveled as an adult says everyone from the company goes out like every night to drink...people don't like being stressed, and most can only unstress through drugs...its lame.


Life is a big pile of mediocrity....just how things are, it sucks.
Gotta just make the good parts last as long as possible when they crop up.

If you want to be able to have kids in 5ish years, start investing now. Any extra cash you have put in the stock market while it still sucks ass.
Its the only other way to make money right now.

i'm not worried about the kids thing, just in my depression last night it came up


the worst part is, I don't really have it all that bad, I have a job that pays my bills (in this jobless rate that's saying something), I live in a fantastic place, I have a great girl, and life is pretty good. It's just not going anywhere right now. The fact that compared to a lot of people I have it good, makes me feel even worse for some reason.

i agree with the mac... Don't bring kids into the world until you can provide for them. Most people are inherently unhappy and that Adult Age drinking is probably worse than college binge drinking

I also agree with you... I'm trying to break into a job field that you need experience to get into but you can't get into it without experience (non-profit and international economic development). Just gotta keep plying away. One step in front of the other... He who makes haste to be rich cannot not be innocent


Damn existentialist cognizance :(
