"A new command I give you: Love one another." John 13:34
"Passionate hatred can give meaning and purpose to an empty life."-Eric Hoffer
Probabaly, the emotion that I have the most trouble dealing with working at the call center is hatred. There are times I hate my customers, I hate my co workers, but especially, I struggle with hating the management that has created this place of suffering, and hating myself for not finding a way out yet.
Hatred is not my constant companion, its not even my friend. Its more like that nerd in high school that wants to be your best friend even though you dump him upside down in the trash can every time he bothers you.
But he wont go away. It seems like every study hall, every class, every meal in the cafeteria, those ugly glasses, Dungeons and Dragons T-shirt, and greasy hair keep appearing in my field of vision trying to become part of my life. My cool friends, kindness, self-respect, and maturity tell me if I let him hang out with us they're hitting the bricks.
More to come...
