Oh, well

Monday Jun 6th 2005

That call I was supposed to get at 5:30pm today didn’t happen. It’s now 5:40pm, which will turn into 6pm and so on. I suppose I can spill the beans on what the call was about since it’s not going to happen anyway - it was for a nice small part-time job. A really nice one. With nice people. Nice atmosphere. Nice everything.

The lesson to be learned here is that “If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.” Once again, I was suckered into believing something that was described to me as “Oh yes, it will definitely happen.” Well, it definitely didn’t happen. I should have known better. I should have realized what I’ve known all along, which is: If you want something done right, do it yourself.

Right now I am extremely pissed off. I am pissed off that I got my hopes up for no reason, I am pissed off that I let a friend give me any hope of better employment whatsoever (note: IT NEVER WORKS), and most of all I’m pissed at myself - for being a complete idiot.

I’m never mixing friends with business again. Never. Every time I do it, it leads to complete and utter disaster, with me getting the short end of the stick EVERY SINGLE TIME.

To hell with it all. This is what I get for waiting an ENTIRE WEEK for something that NEVER HAPPENS. Oh YIPPY KI YAY TO ME.
