So I'm Lucky To Have A Job Huh?
One of the things that irritates the shit out of me is when I vent about my job and somebody says "Well you're lucky to have that job." Lucky? Are you fucking kidding me? One thing is for certain...I do not wish to be fired quite yet. I can't get unemployment that way. But seriously Lucky? I don't see how. Am I lucky that I work for slightly above minimum wage? Maybe because I haven't had a raise in almost 7 years and not because I don't do my job? Or is it because they illegally demoted me to part time after my maternity leave? Oh I know...It's because of the new rule that we can't accept tips. That's it! I am lucky because I work my ass off for a business that gives a rats ass about their employees and I make no money. 300 dollars for two weeks to be exact. Yeah...I'm about as lucky as a bug in a bug zapper.
