I was going to trim the burns, and then I decided to just get rid of them.
I used to really hate looking so young, but I don't even care anymore. I've got so much else on my mind. When I make it through some of these upcoming hurdles, I'll be worthy of toting some facial hair. Is that a personal challenge? Yes, I think so.
My current job requires me to shave. I hate this job. I want a better job. Higher paying. More hours, perhaps, because it will be difficult to beat my current hourly wage. (But not impossible.)
I don't really have any friends anymore, either, so maybe meeting a bunch of new coworkers will be good for me in that way, too. I love most of the employees at my current job, but since I work in a fast food restaurant, most of them are teenagers. I enjoy working with them and try to be a positive influence, but we are not friends outside of work. I have nothing against fast food or teenagers, but I'm 24, and I have no college education. It's really time to take the next step. I've never really tried to reach any goals in my entire life. I've always just put in the bare minimum.
I have an excellent record at work and anyone there will vouch for that. Six years, I worked in this restaurant. It's easy and close by. I was just getting by. I'm about to get another raise, so that will put me at about $11.50 an hour. Six years of experience in working with the public, training employees, doing every single position and then some, food safety, etc... I was employee of the month twice! I hope these things count for something on my resume.
I never want to work in this industry again, but I think my resume can say "I'm a solid and dependable worker." Nobody works at one place for six years! Especially someone who is so young! (Okay, I'm turning a negative into a positive.)
I never really tried at my job. I did what was expected of me just fine - they were always happy with it. But I never really TRIED. I like the employees and the customers, but I don't like the job. I don't get to create and I don't get to innovate. I DO get to entertain, mentor, and boost morale, which I do enjoy, but those are about the only meaningful things I can do.
Right now, I need lots of change. And I need money. And I need an acoustic guitar so I can write some songs that reflect this time in my life. I can't leave this decade with nothing.
