Realization
By Keiti | October 4, 2007
It’s been a hell of a week - one more work day night until I get some time off to do absolutely nothing. I haven’t gotten nearly enough sleep, I’m hitting PMS mode, and I think I might be getting whatever cooties have been going around town.
But it’s all good. Working 12-hour shifts at night isn’t nearly as exhausting for me as if I had to do the same during the day. I’m not sure why, except to say that I’ve always been a night owl.
Last night, as I was working, I came to a realization. You see, I’ve always been a bit mouthy - even as a kid if I had something to say, I’d say it. I’ve become a little more selective about running my mouth as I’ve gotten older, but I always attributed this phenomena to an intense problem with authority figures. Last night, however, I realized that it’s not authority, per se, that I have a problem with; it’s more inept authority. Some people simply command respect, and I readily give that. But others, who I’ve come to realize are insecure in their position of authority, are generally the ones I have issues with, mostly because they end up abusing it.
This is yet another reason why I want to work for myself.
