Professional: Slow transition to asshole...

So as the days of my first new professional job creep by, I'm becoming more and more jaded about people wanting to do a good job and (maybe even more importantly) being capable of doing a good job.

This goes for professionals and parents alike. The time that I spend parenting people with kids who are years older and out of control is just immense. I think it's a bit funny that I've been taught all this basic insight into human behavior and parents seem to either overlook it or miss it altogether. Maybe there are indeed too close to the situation to garner an objective view.

In either case, I feel that I work and care really hard. I strive to always look towards the hidden meanings and I work to find the best way to resolve a situation with the least amount of stress and meds.

But I'm not getting the impression that anyone else really carries their weight in that regard.

Maybe that's why I need to make more money; so that I can then be very selective with whom I associate with (both personally, socially, professionally.) Because sighing customer service people, terse servers, slow ass and repetitious assistants are being to chap my ass.

I'm just sayin'...

I may be a bit terse today because I'm waiting for the results of my board exams which still aren't in. I'm nervous because they don't show up on the website either and my colleagues are getting their results much faster than I did.

I'm having some deja vu; that ominous feeling like I had the time when Luke was getting ready to break up with me. Yeah, regardless of if I passed or not, I shouldn't let what happened with Luke affect my life or make me more squeamish. But it does...at least for now.

Ugh, I wanna go to bed.
