A Misanthrope's Guide To: WORKING.

What I'm sure most employers think of me:

I hate working. I know that everyone and their dead grandmother hates working, but I REALLY fucking hate working. I'm sure that my hate is at once fueled and exacerbated by the fact that I work in the "service industry". Being a people-hater in an industry that is extremely people-oriented is soul-crushing. I've done it all. Served, cocktailed, and last but not least, bartended. I LOVE bartending and I'll tell you why. There is an immense amount of control and autonomy as far as bartending is concerned. A good bartender is looked at as a deity. Someone who can handle money, multitask and make drinks fast as fuck is a rarity. And this is why I am the shit. I have a sense of urgency in life that is unparalleled..when I give a shit. When I am invested and interested in something, I give it my all. When I could give ten shits about something, I give nothing. I have quit a million and one jobs simply because I didn't give a thousand fucks about the place and/or I just "didn't like the vibe"..That's just who I am. I owe no one any explanations or excuses because I am a self reliant individual. I am a fucking JOB SNOB. At times I feel guilty about being this way. I'm sure it makes me look flaky, lazy and unmotivated, but that is soo far from the truth. I am a very hard worker..when I give a fuck. I'm pretty sure that this all stems from feeling powerless and at the mercy of the whims of others as a child. My childhood was fraught with instability, which has turned me into a self-centered adult. If I don't want to do something, I'm not going to do it. Blame my mother, I do. Nonetheless, I think that self-awareness is the key to self-mastery and I'd like to think that I own the market on the first. So instead of flogging myself or even attempting to change, I believe that the best course of action is to find environments that allow me my autonomy and job snobbery whilst being low-maintenance and lucrative..A girl can haz, right?
