AS/400 is terrible. The only reason anyone has it is because they have too much information stored in it and they don’t want to spend a million bucks to have a data storage company come in and transfer everything to a better system. I have it on my resume too, because it shows that I can work with systems that are older than me.
I’m all about comedy for comedy’s sake, but I want to bring it down and have a bit of real talk. This sounds like textbook depression, and it’s nothing to sneeze at. Like, being apathetic at work is just something we all do (especially when working for the government), but when it seeps over into your personal life and you find yourself unable to take even the smallest of steps toward your goals, self improvement, or even well being, it’s turning into a problem. It doesn’t have to be a constant, every-day-for-a-year funk. It doesn’t even have to be so bad that you want to kill yourself or wish you never existed. Depression can be that feeling of “why should I fucking bother?” hitting you over and over and over.
Obviously I don’t know how your daily life really goes, and I don’t know all the other factors going into your postgrad blues, but know that feeling like you’re living in a raincloud all the time isn’t something you should have to deal with. Talk to your doctor. You don’t have to start out with therapy, or even end up there at all. But discussing how you feel with a medical professional is a great first step. You’ve got Fridays off and government benefits, so you don’t have an excuse not to.
You don’t have to listen to a random internet commenter, but you seem like the kind of guy who could be the life of the party if he didn’t have this monkey on his back. The people around you deserve that, and you deserve it too. Shoot me a DM on Twitter if you want to talk, but really. Talk to somebody.
Okay, now back to your regularly scheduled dick jokes.
You just haven’t learned how to work with your mid-20s hangovers yet. You can’t treat it like you did in college where you drink until 3, pass out, wake up at 10 and keep drinking. Gotta prepare. Have a tall glass of water before bed. Fill it up and put it on your nightstand. Pop a couple alka seltzers in that bad boy when you wake up. If you want an easy way out, drink some Pedialyte before bed. Do you feel like a toddler? Sure. But that shit works.
I’m trying to think of the last time I saw a company on Glassdoor have more than 3 stars. If they’re telling employees to write a positive review, they’re not very convincing.

Oh, definitely agreed. Doesn’t mean I’m happy about it.
*starts looking at jobs in Austin*
There it is. I got worried, your first comment seemed way too normal and nobody dies if he follows that plan.
I figured it had something to do with the blood magic. Maybe the spell gave her a permanent +20 to Fire Resistance.

Game changer for Johnny D.
Smart call not getting a girl pregnant before you move to Texas.

It’s like people with ten “best friends”. They’re missing the point of the thing.
Same. Start a Tumblr like Johnny did, post it on there and we can read it whether or not it’s published here.
I thought waking up sick and having to go to work would be the most exhausting part of my day. You alright, dude?
Toss in some headphones with chill music and it becomes kinda zen. At least, it will be until cicada season.
Mixing Mexican food and coffee will definitely bring on some neverending poops. You played a dangerous game there.
10/10 would hire and then immediately regret hiring for PR job. Gotchu fam.
Someone’s pulling a PGPM with the “meh”s here and I love it.
Toss in a graph here and there and you’re golden.
Most customer service Twitters are pretty terrible, but I have to give a plug for Denny’s. Whoever runs that is certifiable and hilarious.

Chick-Fil-A on the same block as your office is big stuff. Don’t feel bad for being excited about this.
