Over the 4-day weekend, things are changing for me. In order to take a full-time building sub job at a local school district, I had to vacate the position I've been holding for 2 years at work. Over the weekend is when someone else takes over, so when I'm through with my 4-day weekend, everything will be different for me there. It's like a reboot.
It's weird - the whole time I've been there, I've been trying to climb up - get promotions and raises and higher positions. Got shot down almost every time. Now I'm all but leaving. I could always tell that I'd be able to go far in that company, given the time. And given the chance, I would have. But something else came along that I've always wanted. Now that I'll be going part time, I'll be treated like a nobody.
But it goes with the territory. That company is for people who put full stock in its philosophies. For true believers - and to be honest I never was one. I could fake it, for the paycheck. But now it's a matter of time before I won't have to anymore.

This wasn't funny at all. Re-write it funny-like.
I understand the "retail" is a business and that somewhere out there a man with a "philosophy" saw a greater good in creating the company, but...
retail still sucks and I'm glad you're doing something that makes you happy and really makes a difference in the lives of people. Retail is for zombies. You are a zombie hunter and that just so happens to be my fetish in life :)
