Slight Reversing

October 1st 2017

The other day, I mentioned I sent off an email to request a mentor for Toastmasters. I was given a response welcoming me and requested a time to do a phone conference to get to know me (as well as a request to pay an additional $51.00 on the day of the meeting). That meeting is coming up October 3rd…Tuesday.

I got that email Friday, I didn’t respond yet. Why?

At the heart of what’s going on, I have that ‘old man’ anger brewing. I don’t want to be bothered by people. I don’t want to smile and small talk. I don’t want to talk to anyone. It’s the underlining hate that is spread throughout this journal.

Something I need to kill and stop fucking around if I want to do and go places.

Still, I dread the idea of needing to hear another person’s voice right now. Especially after spending a day being a ‘Yes ma’am’, ‘How can I help you?’ sounding asshole through the day at Walmart.

Oh, Walmart. I inherited a mess of extra little things with a forthcoming inventory and holiday season. I have to go in early Monday morning just to catch up without interference from management and customers. I worked Saturday. If I can weasel my way out of it, I will not work a full day on a Saturday again. It’s almost impossible to get anything done. It’s all customer service mode.

I would say “what did I get into” but I knew what I signed up for. Importantly, the reasons why.

Going back to Toastmasters, I would say “what did I get into” but I knew what I signed up for. Importantly, the reasons why.

Both are required things I must do to perfect my future. Like going back to college in the first place.

I need to shut the fuck up, squash that inner turmoil and walk the fuck forward. Both at job, academics and social growth.

I’ll respond to the email after this post.
