Stop the press, hold the phones, keep your shorts on, cause Ryan just got fired. Well to be honest, I got fired last wednesday, but ONLY NOW has the gruesome truth sunk in. No more free squash, no more bumming around receiving ten measly Canadian loonies an hour. No more talking to hot Amber and no more free coffee. Yes this is somewhat of a wake up call..
The Cause:
Forgot about one small itsy bitsy shift that i said i would cover, and apparently you cant play squash during your shift...
What do i do?
I think in their youths everyone is an optimist, believing that any and all dreams can be achieved if you set your mind to it. As you grow older, you begin to realize (or all at once) that this is bull shit. Even if you so happen to be a young white male (hey sorry folks, I didn't create these inequalities) you are still going to amount to diddly squat.
Option 1. Underachieve
Hey, a cynics easy way out. Do nothing in life because in the end all you do is die, so why try?
This job was a slackers paradise, and i have half a mind to try and get this job back. Sure i slacked off, but i was becoming a part of that center. A guy people could ask questions to about squash or anything. And someone to hold on .. k maybe not so much but, I was eating and breathing squash balls for 8 months, and last week I was just left out in the cold.
Option 2. I dont know... wtf should I do? Im an under achiever!

ReplyDeleteI take a bizzare sense of pride as a cynic myself. I also realize there is a distinct difference between a cynic and a insubordinate procrastinator.
ReplyDeleteFor arguments sake a cynics perspective should be the complete opposite. If the conclusion to everything is death and perpetual end, would it not be in the cynics best interest to excell and strive for expirence, knowledge, and the best in life given what little time life permits? Being lazy is not really and 'easy' way out. You might as well just end your life - that's truly easy (notwithstanding some horrible gruesome death of course).
Wait, the above sounds way to postive for a true cynic. I retract the second paragraph. Not apathy, hard-work, positive thinking, or what have you, makes the world go round. It does it by itself.
ReplyDeleteLive your life how ever you want, I suppose it doesn't really matter in the end.
Sounds to me like you f'd up. :3
