Completely agree. I’m so sick of everything being digital and electronic. I’m probably old school, but the addictions some people have to social media/electronics on top of fishing for approval via likes is just sad. I never could even have a conversation with my college roommate because he wouldn’t ever look up from his phone. Funny how we all want to “save the planet” yet hardly anyone that promotes that ever gets up from their desk in the middle of the city and goes out to actually enjoy it.
Exactly. Reunions used to be to catch up with those you haven’t seen in years. Now we see people we don’t care about on a daily basis on Facebook, what they eat, where they shit and their newest get rich quick scheme that they will inevitably ask you to invest in even though everyone knows it’s never going to work out.
Got to eat dinner with Clayton Kershaw when he was with his single-A team (for like 2 weeks.) Chatted like he was a normal dude, since he was then…. until he got called straight to the majors basically a month into his rookie season.
Well, if it’s absolutely terrible this is a good reason, but if it’s bearable it also is. They could come back and say “well, let’s increase your salary and benefits then” or “how would you feel about working towards a promotion that will utilize your skills.” Gotta be prepared for the off chance they offer you a better schtick after they realize they’re not using you correctly.
What I find funny is how they think they’re better than you because they shop at a certain grocery store. With no barrier to entry, there is nothing that shopping there makes you more special. You simply choose to pay more money for items your yoga instructor said you couldn’t live without.
Hence why it’s so annoying to hear people complain every day about their jobs/lives. Sure it’s funny to poke fun at your desk job or being a cubical warrior, but no one is stopping you but you from becoming what you want to be. If you don’t like it, change it. No one else will do it for you.
I mean neither of us were really using it as such but if that’s what it’s perceived as….
Well, now I know how much work I won’t be doing on March 3rd.

They are.
Oh my God.
My mom still does. “It’s fun. I enjoy doing it.” Ok mom.
Can you teach me what marketable skills means? I seem to be missing the gist.
Read my mind…
PGP.
And even encouraged now….
What kind of neighborhood do you live in where kids and puppies play in the streets?

Same. I don’t really think I could grow one, but I’m too afraid to actually try.
I just bursted out laughing and got some weird looks. This mixtape needs to be completed.

My family’s house burned down with our 2 dogs inside last Thursday. 🙁

Wow I forgot about this Series.
