Underwhelmed


Sometimes there is comfort in chaos. This is being said after the craziness that has been my life the past year and a half while working at my current employer. I have been on THEE most demanding account in the department. I’ve dealt with lies, backstabbing, and incompetence directly from The Client – which is not unusual for Corporate America. I guess being placed into this mix has made me accustomed to this type of business. But looking from the outside in, it’s really quite sad that this goes on.

The more and more I inch towards moving from my team to the new team, I feel my stomach knotting. From what I have experienced in my new environment, I am not completely thrilled with the idea. Honestly, it’s quite nerve-wracking. I realized I like the hussle and bussle of the “who knows what the hell is going to happen next” day to day activities within my team and The Client to the oh-so-relaxed but almost catty view of my new surroundings. I guess time will tell.

The upside to my new schedule at work: Fewer hours spent in the office; and more time to write, chill, & experience life.

The downside to my new schedule at work: Less money.

I guess since I will be earning less money, I am going to have to start charging my tricks in order to keep up with my current state of finances – which is not cute btw. But what’s even sadder than that is I could never charge for my services. Once a slut, always a slut. And this slut will be forever free.

You know- you may be a slut, but you get to be a ho if you charge. Perhaps you need to step up in rank.


Love ya.
