I don’t mean this post to be as mean as the title suggests, I just wanted to update my progress.
If you’ve been following my posts recently you’d know that I’m dealing with the dilemma of working a full time job and still barely scraping to survive with not even a penny to my savings. I live paycheck to paycheck and I’ve just about had enough of all this working hard and not making enough. So instead of sitting around and sulking about it, I’ve decided to take matters into my own hands.
If you are fighting to find a job or can’t seem to gain some motivation to do so, take note.. In less than 24 hours of trying to find a (2nd job) part time job, ive managed to get hired by a seasonal store that will utilize what time I have available.
Now I’m not saying “it’s that easy”, but my point is that if you don’t try, you’ll never know, and you will remain in a static form of existence where nothing is achieved. If your life seems dead, you must do what you have to do to bring it back to life and keep it going. You can choose to do nothing, but That’s when depression will get the best of you. So keep fighting out there!
Thanks for reading!

Awesome dude!….although does that mean we won’t be seeing much of you around SP?
I mean with 2 jobs….sheesh….
Ah dude you’re preaching to the deaf here….well not to everyone just me….fighting life for me at this point is like limitless rounds with Mike Tyson in his prime…..dude I’m clearly not going to win any of those rounds ….
i was following your posts lately and what i understand is you really don’t have any swag for drug.hehe i still have a veto in your posts right?:)
Huh, good stuff. I wonder if there might be any seasonal openings that would accept me. You’d think I’d be snatched up immediately with my model good-looks, but people seem to be awfully prejudiced towards the intelligent and beautiful around here. I must make them feel bad about themselves. I never asked to be this perfect. I just can’t help it, I swear.
It probably isn’t your modesty that people find most endearing
I always thought I was doing people a favour if I afforded them a few minutes of my time so that they could gaze at me to their heart’s content. Don’t blame me if it was love at first sight (for them. My only true love is alcohol). On the downside I always have to keep changing my number so that I can keep the stalkers at bay. Oh well. Could be worse.
I have to change my email address. I don’t just give my number out to anyone.
I don’t either but sometimes I get bored and I’m like, to hell with it. What’s the worst that can happen. So far the worst has been that they are nuts. I’m still waiting on receiving chocolate and roses at my doorstep. I miss the UPS guy I used to have a fling with. I could always count on him for that.
That explains a lot
What does it explain
They all must have been crazy of course. That explanation really does stand up to scrutiny. Especially on suicide sites.
The UPS guy wasn’t crazy. He was really good-looking and he liked cars. He watched NASCAR and participated in/bet upon drag races. He also liked to go out for wild nights at pubs. A pretty kewl dude. Haven’t seen him for years, hope he’s doing well.
I’d make a formal complaint to UPS. A few years is a long time to wait. It usually takes 2-5 working days for standard delivery.
Haha. I moved away from the area, that’s why. It was an amiable parting. I doubt I’ll go back there (for other reasons), but yeah.
This site seems to have seen better days.
Indeed so. At some point luck seems to have disappeared for most of us. Ah well. I haven’t given up yet. There are a lot of countries I have to visit/take up residence in first. And lots of people who haven’t had the pleasure of falling in love with me yet. I was born for the purpose of brightening people’s days, you know.
Keep up the good work.
Thanks, I will. If my good spirits work even on the Downer of Marmalade himself, I know something must be going right.
Yeah it’s not you, it’s me. I actually think there’s some truth in that statement.
I’m joshin,’ me lad. Anybody with such a good taste in music can’t be all that hopeless.
Thanks but at my age, I need to be making a forward move. I’m not really interested in getting to know people on suicide sites. You could just as well be one of those Japanese automated robots and it wouldn’t make any difference to me.
Well well, offended are we. Learn to take a joke, buddy. 😉
Are you a robot? If so I still think you’re pretty cool. I have nothing against robots, I think we can all live in harmony together.
@Persephone I guess you’ve never seen I-robot lol
In fact, I have seen ‘I, Robot,’ but that film is in no way representative of robots as a whole. If Duke is a robot, I suspect he’s more likely to be a ‘hubot,’ a robot which is built to look and function like a human. (Watch the Swedish show ‘Real Humans’ – ‘Äkta människor’ to know what I’m talking about.)
Anyway Duke, you’re not really a downer, you’re funny. So don’t be sad. You’re still my British bestie no matter if either one of us is a robot or hubot.
Here’s an update on this post:
I was offered another full time job at this company. They offered to pay me more and take care of me. It’s funny how things can change in an instant. Last night I was wondering how I was gonna keep up with rent, and today I have to decide which options to take.
Hopefully life keeps going this way!
@RT30… That’s awesome dude 😀
@persephone I wasn’t serious I was just making a joke….although if robots ever become self aware….. *shudders
Thanks you guys!! 😀
Well.. I start my 2nd job tomorrow night. I already am getting paid for an hour today and tomorrow ill work another 3 hours. Then ill work all weekend, and back to 4 hours each week night. I’m getting paid $8.30/hr.
Hey…it’s something extra I guess! lol
