F T W - Fuck the World :)

Album of the day : Rage Against the Machine



I apologize for the rambling post, but its late and I wanted to talk about something that didn't have to do with streetwear or anything like that.

So I got fired from my work today.

First time I've ever been fired in my entire life, and in a way its liberating as hell.

I would preferred if they fired me at work since that way I would have been able to create a scene. The job itself was shit, trapped at a cubicle taking calls that I don't give a fuck about to some idiot hundreds of miles away. The only way I slaved away at it was to get a dollar (and trust me , at the end of the day it wasn't alot of dollars).

Apparently you can't trust temp agencies to find you lasting, rewarding jobs. Or even ones that are half-decent where they maintain the washrooms, and don't fuck u over at every opportunity.

Let me say this, everyone at this workplace hated it, and if they didn't explictly say so , they felt it inside. So everyone hated it, yet they stayed. People were unable to bring themselves to improve their situation, instead they just sat there and took it. Everyday, they let themselves be demeaned, underpaid, and do tedious repetitive tasks that did not stimulate their bodies or their brains.

This attitude is reflective not only at my former job, but everywhere in life. Its so easy to just let life pass you by. The whispers in your ear at every turn to : remain quiet ; forever subservient to no greater cause. All for the ultimate goal of living a normal life, trapped behind cheap office cubicle dividers, and peeling white picket fences.

Life is pretty short (average lifespan of a human being is only a few thousand days, depending on ur place of residence of course). However to me, knowing this is enlightening, as now without a job , despite the financial strain, I feel more free to accomplish what I really wanted to do initially anyway. So just live your life, be impulsive (as long as its not stupid), and persue your goals. Otherwise you might end up like those people at my old workplace, those who continue to serve hard time, not as fortunate as me to be let go.
