New Year Malaise, the rant

Jan 06, 2008 10:17

Ugg, I don't know..... I think I am happy working at Starbucks... is it too demeaning? But what is an appropriate job for a middle age woman anyway? One who has no skills......? I go through Craigslist Classified and I have NO qualifications! I'm not beating myself up, don't worry. It's just that I am only good at building up MY world, my business ( Read more... )

Not much I can say to cheer you up, Con. But I'm sending lots of positive thoughts your way. It sounds as if you're really enjoying your painting, and that's a positive start to the year.

All the best for 2008 - I hope it's a happier year for you all.

Getting up there in years? Not catching on as fast? WTF?? Jeez, how old is your boss, 12?

Know what you mean about Facebook, hun. I'm almost never there anymore. Been needing to blog/journal more than play. :-D

Love ya!

Oh, its good to hear news from you, Con. Apart from seeing new paintings every so often, which is lovely.

Even not very good news. I'm pissed off with your Starbucks manager. They did an experiment here, a DIY firm, called B&Q, started up in my town and only employed people over fifty. It was pretty popular, because the workforce was so knowledgeable, attentive, and easy to talk to. They did stop doing it, but they still have a wide range of ages in B&Q here. Perhaps the youngsters are better at pouring out coffee though?

Your Mom passing? I'm sending a hug over the broadband.

Keep dropping in here. Please!

Thanks Lori..... (hugs)

I do love Starbucks, don't get me wrong... I am just shocked that people see me that way. I have lived in this little bubble for a while and in it, I am young and hot! LOL Going out into the "real" world is a bit scary. But I figured the best revenge is to prove them WRONG... so I am doing well, making lattes, cappucinos and caramel machiatos like the best of them.
So....

Ni!

Love,
Con
