Entry for January 10, 2006 Bomb Shell

Entry for January 10, 2006 Bomb Shell
Today was interesting. I turned in my notice and the DM came up to me and asked me why. I told him that the opportunity of a life time has been presented to me and that I had to take it. He started in on me about how many jobs I have had over the years and how he has only had 4 in his life. Well goody for him...does he want a cookie? It is great that some people out there make it their "life's" destiny to be a District Manager of a fast food chain. Fortunately I am not one of thoes people. How dare him attack my past, he doesn't know who I am or what I have been through. I worked a full time job at BK at the age of 16 earning 6.5 per hour to help pay my mother's mortgage since her husband wouldn't get a job to support the family. Then I decided that I wanted more money and didn't want to be around them, I'll explain at another date, so I decided to get a full time position at a store. I was working 5 am to 1 or 2 pm and then 2 pm to midnight at the store. At 17 years old I was working approx 75 to 85 hours a week. Who in the hell is he to tell me that I'm a job hopper, I have busted my butt of over the years. I have tried and deserve to better myself in different avenues, sometimes I wind back up at fast food, call me crazy, but I love the adrenline of the fast pace, but I don't want to do it for the rest of my life. Kudos to anyone who does, someone needs to run those places. So then he started to say that he owned 4 houses, 3 of which he rents and he owns a 2002 Dodge Ram....again, does he want a cookie? Is he nuts? He seems to work hard, and he is in his mid to late 40's with a fast food career, medoaker life and let's not forget he owns a Dodge Ram. Don't get me wrong I LOVE Dodge Rams, after all my dad owns one and I love the look of them, but big deal, none the less it is a 2002, with all the "big" bucks he sould have rolling in he should be driving a brand new one every year. What is his point in all of this? It seems that he is just a materialistic person. I don't want to just make enough money to squeak by, I want to exceed in life. Besides I own two houses, well they both have mortgages, but they are in my or Duck's name. We both own our vehicles, both of which are paid off. So I have resigned myself to working everyother weekend after my two weeks are up. The other thing that he said to me was that he expected a 5 year commentment out of his employees. YOUR HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME....how in the world does he expect to keep anyone at $6.00 per hour for 5 years, got off the crack dude. What a freaking joke. Did you ever see the movie "You've Got Mail" where the talk about Zingers. I just wanted to ask him if he was "F'ing" kidding me, and ask him if he wanted a cookie. It must be great to have an average life, but I want more. Pardon my spelling tonight, I am running through this trying to get ready for bed. I certainly hope that everyone's day has gone better than my night. Screw "DM" I hope that he has a happy average life in surburbia meth town with his Dodge Ram and 4 houses. He should be happy in his thought of a 5 year comentment from teenages and young adults who are looking for something better.
What goes around comes around.
