What is depression?????
Wikipedia calls it a medical condition identified by clusters of symptoms such as markedly-decreased mood, motivation, interest, energy levels
Dooce had it, chronicled it, and has a bazillion readers a day tune in to her about it.
Tom Cruise called it a lack of vitamins.
Chris Rose went through it, and did not believe in it.
There have been times that I have thought, "I am in a funk, I will get over it."
My wife is on meds for it.
My Sister is on meds for it.
I do not even know what it really is?????
Do I have it???
For the last 3 to 4 weeks I have been coming home from work feeling angry, defeated, frustrated hopeless, or some combination of all of them. Yes, I have taken on a new position at work. No, I do not deal well with failure. And the position I am in is an exercise in controlled failure.
The job just cannot be done. Or maybe I just did not realize what the job truly entailed. Maybe I have not comprehended the huge difference in going from what was basically an hourly wage job, to a salaried one. (More Hours…..No OT pay….LOVE TIME)
Daily, I am fighting off the urge to walk into my boss’s office and resigning the position. But somehow, someway I have been able to psych myself up for the battle of the new day. But should I see EVERY SINGLE DAY as a battle? Should I have to spend 5 to 20 minutes each day just doing breathing exercises to prepare myself to get dressed?
Hell, as I was about to take my daily nap before work, I was going to jack off first. I could not get it up. Talk about a horrible way to start the day.
But tonight, I came to a conclusion. As I left the building (after 2 full hours of LOVE time and forgetting to take a break), I came to a conclusion.
FUCK THE RAT BASTARDS…….THEY WILL NOT WIN
The job maybe an exercise in failure. It maybe an impossible job, but I will get the job done, because I will not let the RAT BASTARDS WIN.
Stay tuned…I may turn this blog into a place to put the drunken thought I will be having every night after I leave work.
