Durr a Durrr a Durr Durr Durr
Durr a Durrr a Durr Durr Durr So, the title reflects my mental exhaustion... I work at a high pace and I work for a long time... I should really think about adding this line to my profile under sexual attributes, but who's going to believe THAT? I have been going with the needle in the red line probably since June, and I think it's starting to wear me down. I have been a little short with some who don't understand that it takes time for me to work, and persistently calling me every day doesn't help me work faster for you, I make mistakes for you.... which adds to the stress level. I have had something I needed to get off my chest. I firmly believe that you get what you put out into the universe. I believe in Karma. I have to watch out what I put out into the universe... So, with that said... let me tell you how sick and tired I am of running into these older guys who come into my shop and talk about something... like Star Trek. They will give you their encyclopedic knowledge of everything on the Starship Enterprise and go on for an additional forty minutes on how the show was the first on television to feature an interracial kiss, and a multi-racial senior crew where the minorities did not act as social stereotypes of the time. They will paint the vision of Gene Roddenberry himself of a Utopian landscape where there is no greed, there is no money or social denomination and there is no war. Everyone works in unison towards a common goal and everyone is happy. Then suddenly, the demeanor changes and suddenly you're listening to some guy spew the longest hate filled rant about the current president and how they hate everything about the liberal agenda. That whole conversation dissolves as they begin the rip up the idea of accepting the truths and lifestyles of others that they may not agree with, in favor of imposing their will on others. So, which one is it?? Do you want a Utopian society where space travel revolves around one maverick captain who sits in a nice Lazee-boy chair in front of the big screen while telling everyone what to do? Or are you more concerned with making sure every minority you meet be treated with scrutiny and doubt till you have determined that we are worthy?? Then the Star Wars nerds walk in and all hell breaks loose in my shop. |
