To fix computers but not have to deal with customers
Just a tech in a room with a bunch of broken computers
and working in a place that's relaxed
just show up in a t shirt and jeans, be able to kinda step outside to take a tiny break whenever I need to, eat whenever, work on whatever, as long as I get it done.
I interned at some places like that and I loved it

People at work are the worst. 5 people (one of them a screaming little 5 year old kid with ADD) where asking me stuff at once at work today. At the same time I had to clean up the pool area and get all of those same people to pack their shit up and leave since it was time to close. I ended up having a panic attack.

That really sucks, yeah dealing with other human beings is not my strong point
everyone is the same, trying to get you to work for free, trying to get you to install illegal programs, or never picking up their computer once its fixed cuz they dont want to pay.
they are so underhanded about it it disgusts me
and its also not fun having to clean up after your shitty co-workers mistakes.

There's a girl that I work with who doesn't make mistakes, but I have to constantly clean up after her. We both work at checkout, and it's like, the nice polite thing to do to put the overstock you have after your shift away. She constantly goes to grab things for her customers to price check, which is fine, but she never puts it back. When I go the checkout to replace her, she almost constantly has two baskets of overstock for ME to put away. It's really frustrating, because we're only given like a fifteen minute grace period to put shit away when our shift is over.

I used to have all kinds of cool cat aspirations. Be a concept artist. A professional creative. How wonderful would that be?

Now I realize what I really want is to just somehow fall into enough money to live a lower middle class lifestyle. Nothing big and ritzy, not a lot of chance for that. Just a small ho-hum sum of money.

I guess the idea of the whole "If you're happy, you'll never work a day in your life" thing is pretty sweet. Ya' know, imagine that if you didn't have to do anything, what would you do, and then you can just get that job and bingo bongo, it's like you don't have a job after all, you're just doing what you want to do and collecting checks.

But really, I think that's pretty fundamentally flawed for most people. I mean, for me anyways, the truth of it is simple. If it's something you have to do, have to, well, that kinda sucks the life out of it. You're bein' forced to do it, and for what? To be able to afford to wake up and do it again the next morning?

I don't know, I guess I come from a generation where it's like, we all believe we're just a few minutes and a couple lucky breaks from fame and fortune. Because, shit, who do we know that's famous that doesn't have a story like that? And shit, I mean, Internet age. I can see more people that've "made it" at a click of a button then ever before.

But the truth is different. And that's not angsty. It's not even cynical. It's just maturity.

So the new question becomes, hey, how can I be happy whilst dropping the majority of my dreams by the wayside? Legitimately, it's like, how can I be okay with the fact I'll never be as prosperous as I hoped and was told? I guess that's why they call it being well adjusted. You figured out how to adjust yourself to whatever you're given, and be happy with it instead of what you actually wanted.

Damn, maybe I should've wanted to become a life columnist or essayist or some shit. Or a philosopher, that would be a sweet career path.

You're not seeming to grasp the concept of this thread. Dream Job not Practical Life Which I wouldn't Mind Living, I Guess.
