Work: Worth it?
It has been a whole 8 days since I posted something, and almost 2 weeks since I posted something that resembled any coherent piece of blogging (in my own opinion). Of course, there is no excuse, since I have been mis-managing my time left after all the coursework.
In fact, I enjoy abusing the time, almost saddistically. When you know that you can idle on the bed for the few hours not doing any real work, it is a real motivator to just, well… not move.
And I lie there, with the fan whirrling on top of the box which contains my old computer monitor, thumbing through my phone every few minutes to wonder why nobody was calling me. Scroll down the contact list, hover the hand over the green “Call” button, then find a cowardly excuse not to ring up a long lost friend.
Drop phone on the bed, day-dream about never having to work, wake up to find myself groggy because I have fallen asleep, pick up the phone, and repeat the cycle.
When I am not pursuing that non-profitable hobby, I am away reading other people’s blogs. I usually leave the IMs shut down for no reason. Intellectual discourse fails my brain after numbing myself on all the mundane questions that I am asked by inbound callers at work.
Plus the hours are killers: while I am lucky to only rarely have bad customers, the odd ones whom don’t adhere to an acceptable basic phone courtesy really irks me to no end.
I don’t need a job; I need a goal.
