It’s been a long time coming, but someone finally accepted this big ball of bitterness into their office. I will be starting to raise the bitterness quotient dramatically into a new company starting on Monday. I will now have something new to complain about. That’s right. I got a job. What is quite ironic is that it will be writing content for a school software company. Isn’t the educational system going to be glad that someone is teaching their kids to be more bitter? Anyways, the problem will now be me trying to get back in the swing of having to wake up and get dressed. Also having to stay at an office for a complete day instead of interviewing, then getting the heck back home to watch the Office instead of staying at the office. Oh, boy are things about to get interesting…
Starting with…
Trying to keep…
Trying to learn…
Trying to learn…
Trying to remain…
Trying not to give up…
Especially when people…
Then there is the problem…
And trying to figure out what project…
And having to deal with…
And those oh so pesky meetings…
Who knows though…
Well, there you have it. The last bitter post I’m doing as an unemployed schlub, until I screw it next time. Now I have something completely new and exciting to be bitter about (for your sakes).
ARRRGGGHHHH
Bitter Back into the Swing Ben
There was a song back in my hippie days about getting a job……Morrison probably. Can’t remember it at all actually but thought in your bitterness you would remember and I could say “ah, that’s it!”. anyway, whoever it was should have thought a bit more carefully and added the word bitter to the lyrics. have no real thoughts at all, just babbling at this point to give you something non-job-related to be bitter about later on. Cheers!

Yeah, they should have said something like, “Finally I got a job! Now I’m bitter that I have to work all day!”

Good luck. I, too, have to find a new job. And I am not happy about it. Everybody keeps suggesting places, and I’m like, “Thanks, but I didn’t ask you to suggest places. I got this under control.”

The problem is that I never had it under control. So I had people telling me place and then just having to listen to them over and over.

Congratulations on the new job!!! So glad you’ve convinced someone to let you into their school to increase the bitterness quotient. As I go off trying to inspire kids at school, you will balance me out by teaching them the ways of bitterness. All is right with the world.
