So I'm really not all about resolutions and predictions. I usually just live by Emerson's quote: "Shallow men believe in luck; strong men believe in cause and effect."
I figure it's time I start causing some effects. Get my ass a good job with good pay and maybe put some of that there stuff I learned in college to use.
Confidence is a funny thing though. Working at the old job for 5 years, I was really the man there. I knew everything, knew what to do and was basically running the place. Yet I was always treated like a second class citizen. Not by my customers, by my asshole boss. You kind of get beaten down a bit when you have no other choice but to quit because someone else is doing something unethical and borderline illegal. Then not being able to find suitable work since then... you know I could've had a few gigs, but I was hesitant to jump into another situation where I'd be doing all the work and getting paid shit. I can see it coming now and I'm not desperate enough to do it.
I hope when I own my restaurant, if I ever treat my employees like that, I get an instant karma smack across the head so hard my eyes will cross.
So I'm not making any resolutions or predictions. I'll just make getting gainful employment and working as hard as I can to get funding for the restaurant the cause. I'll let you know when I get the desired effect.
