IDIOCY
I'll be at my new job in exactly 10 hours.
At the interview I was asked why I wanted this particular job.
"That's easy!" I replied, "I'm a people person. I love helping people!"
But I lied. I hate people. I don't like helping people, I like tripping them up. I confused the two momentarily - easy mistake during the pressure of a job interview.
And so in retrospect, accepting this job was an extremely bad move on my part. And I have four months of customer service to remind me of this. Do me a favour, dear reader - don't call customer service until September. Since I can't mention the name of the company I'll be working at in the blog, just refrain from calling any customer service anywhere.
You can work things out on your own. I know you can! I have faith in you. You'll be a better person for it!
Help me to help you by not making me help you.
