Question:
I am in school now (well college i guess? A trade school) at Computer
Learning Center taking an Information Tech course. a nice little 10
month course-set that will guarentee me a job with a salary in the
$25,000 a year range. Whoop-de-fucking-doo. In five years that will be
considered LOW lower class, just above mr "Hey can you spare some
change" on the street corner. I mean, my folks make a decent amount
(just into the 6 figure lot... and I mean JUST.. maybe $120thou a year?)
so we're comfortable... but I mean CMON.. in five years, they'll be
struggling again.
What is society coming to when all that seems to matter is the amount of
money you have.
Even in DATING it comes down to money.
Me, I'm perfectly happy going to a mall and walking around
window-shopping with a lady.. Maybe getting a bite to eat, or even
catching a movie shoud the notion strike us. Maybe even getting some
small something (CD, video, trinket, whatever)... I don't even mind
waiting while she tries on clothes, and giving my opinion. Hell, I ENJOY
it.
But that doesn't matter... Simple, little, happy just spending time
together me doesn't matter.
It's all about money. Gotta have the money if ya wanna get the honey(s).
I mean, take this example....
I used to drive a 1987 Jeep Cherokee 4wd. Its drivers seat was blue
cloth and vinyl.. the rest of the interior black (it had been replaced),
the car was in need of a paint job (well hell, 10 yrs old.. of course it
was), and it didn't run the best. I rarely got noticed by women,
ESPECIALLY if they saw my car.
Now I drive a 1993 Cadillac Eldorado (Its a luxury sports car for those
of you wondering) with a blue ragtop (not convertible, just cloth top)
and blue leather interior. It has a dent in the left front fender
because I stupidly hit a pole once (not a bad dent). I get more looks
and more notice and conversation from women now than I did with the
jeep. And NOTHING ELSE HAS CHANGED!!!! Once I got out of my car and
there was a girl who was walking up the parking lot (at the mall
incidentally) who started a conversation with somehting like "nice car"
(I don't remeber now.. I didnt care at the time either) and quickly
tried to delve in to what I did for a living, where i lived, what i made
at my job, etc.. etc.. and finally whether i was single. When she found
out I am still living at home with my folks until im through with
school, I work for a night club doing telephone work, and I make $6.00
an hour, 30 hours a week, she lost interest.
Same for almost every other woman that startes talking with me.
And most of the time ill be out at a club (I sing, and I go clubbing a
lot) and I'll have all the money that i just got paid with me, and ill
pull it out to get the proper amount to pay for my drink, and some woman
will evidentally see it, and come up, and start hitting on me. Once she
finds out that what I really had was a lot of $5 and $10 and $1 bills
instead of a bunch of $20 and $100 and $50 bills, and that i dont have a
really awesome job, she walks away.
And money counts so many other places nowadays to.
I mean.. here's my average daily cost of things from monrning to night.
Breakfast - Dont eat it.
20oz dr pepper on the way to school - $0.89
pack of marlboro menthol lights - $2.30
lunch - $5.00 (thiso n the low end)
1-liter diet pepsi for work - $1.25
Gas (I fill up about twice a week
maybe less.. well break it down
by days) - $4.00
TOTAL: - $12.44
Thats $12.00 per DAY!!! I mena CMON!!!! thats REDICULOUS!!!
it shouldnt be over seven or eight dollars a day.
(All amounts in U.S. Dollars).
And what about jobs these days..
I hae qualifications..
4 years in retail sales... Imepccable record, EXCELLENT customer service
skills, ability to maintain astrong customer base.. .and yet I can't
find a frigging job other than tell people they can come get drunk for
free. (I mean, I like my job.. its halfway decent money, and a decent
job, and good people... but I dont enjoy it as much as if i was doing
retail sales).
well.. its midnight now ,and ih ave ot get up at 5:30am (05:30hrs) to
get to school on time tomorrow. WHY CAN'T THERE BE MORE HOURS IN THE
DAY?!
Answer:
i thought that was something familiar... so i was right, means my memory
is not totally gone...
many of them should still be around, considering nothing really changes here.
ofcourse it's all about money, everything is. and it will be even more
about money in the future.
right, but a jeep is "a tool", unless ofcourse, equiped with weird things.
now, a question. would you like to have anyone who's only/mostly with you
just coz of the money? i wouldnt. and what other way could you find out
the truth...
