So boot, if at all.

The Thoughts of Ian Cat

5 notes

So that job interview I was really pumped about? I don’t even care if I get it now. I felt like an idiot walking out of there. I don’t want an office job. I don’t want to have to tell people, “no, I don’t want to succeed in the arts and all that great stuff on my resume, I want to be a drone for the rest of my life because that’s really what you want to hear since you really don’t give a shit about me either way.”

At least at the other job interview I had recently they didn’t mention all the other stuff on my resume.

And really, why the fuck did they want to interview me if my resume “isn’t really geared for customer service or insurance”? Why waste my time? Why waste their own time?

Sure, I answered all their questions the best I could to try and get the job, but walking out of there I felt like I betrayed myself. Fuck it.

Instead of trying to find another office job, I’m going to just go for it and try to get a journalist job, radio job, film/TV/video job, or something else that I SHOULD be doing.
