Day by day I feel like I lose who I was to who I am. They argue sometimes. This career has become my only comfort. Taking solice in results and doing what I know is right at all costs. No matter who wishes my actions bent to their will, I stay the course and remember the fundamentals. I don't explain my every action when I know I'm not f*cking up!
I'm in a long distance relationship with a girl I'm pretty sure I've fallen for. Only problem is, she has to practice law in NY for 2 more years before being able to practice in ATL/GA. She's already primarily on board with moving down here. Now we just play the waiting game. Visits back and forth will have to do, with months apart. I have ridiculous amounts of time off paid to take, but I have seemingly been shackled to my post with little to no thanks for services rendered. My superior actually told me at one point "if you want praise and a pat on the ass, go into sales. Operations gets paid to get shit on. We get paid to make it happen and still get bitched at."
Sitting around the house all the time would drive most nuts. I personally view it as solitary REFINEMENT. My focus is absolute. My ambition is unwavering. Think of me what you will, but I'll trick you into underestimating me. I seek no praise or glory. I simlpy wish to succeed in my career without consistent petty dissention, get my girl down here, and maybe meet a few chill people that don't hate "Yankees" / "New Yorkers"/"Puerto Ricans".
I'd say, "sorry new area, for not being the norm, or quite fitting in.", but I truly do not give a flying fuck. I'm here for the money and to continue to build a future. I love the area and it"s landscapes and ammenities, but the fake politeness and behind back girly games really make my fucking knuckles itch.
In any event, I've been through more than most would survive, without crying about it, and have achieved greater than even I thought possible in legitimate business, through being an honorable, intelligent, hard working, and loyal MAN of PRINCIPLES. Keep your praise. I'll keep the results.
