Hey William, Man, you are 100% correct, that was a very different way to respond to an email but ya know what, I liked it. It was refreshing and always nice to put a face and voice to an online stranger. When your video arrived, I had some downtime at work, so I gave it a watch and really enjoyed it. I glad you didn't have too much damage from the tornado. I lived in Texas for a while growing up and I know who scary and destructive those can be. I really loved your post today. It actually reminded me a lot of the first post of yours I read. I don't know if I ever told you this, but the night I made my Bear Blog, I went searching for interesting blogs via the Discovery feed. I ran across yours, and it was by far my favorite. I remember thinking, "Here is a real dude, talking about life. Not droning on and on about tech, trauma, or his gender." I remember the post was a venting post about your co-workers at the meat counter, but it was nice to hear from someone who seemed like a real person, and not some online charicture. Todays post reminded me a lot of that, and as you touched on in the video, it sounds like you and I both have been in very similar situations. I bounced around retail management for the majority of my twenties, then worked at a desk in a hospital for a bit, and then I've been in customer service for the State of North Carolina. I was the guy who picked up the phone and got yelled at all day. Now, I'm in a different department, and I handle the parking, badge access, and phone orders, and it's been a huge difference. Instead of working with the public, I work with other State employees, and while they all aren't rainbows and sunshine, it beats the hell out of the scam artists I dealt with all day long at my last few jobs. But I'm really glad you've found something that feels promising. I know it's still early on, but I do hope for the best. It's awful being an errand boy, and Lord knows I know how shit rolls down hill. I feel like I've been cover in it for years. It’s funny how in some places the harder you work, the more shit they give you to do, and the less they appreciate you. I'm 42, so we are definitely in the same age range and I hear ya on not giving a fuck anymore. I've started crossing that line more and more the last few months, and I just don't have the energy for the drama and nonsense anymore both online and off. I'm just gonna sit in my corner and do my own thing, and if folks don't like it, that's fine, you don't have to be part of my life or my blog or whatever else. I've spent way too much of my life catering to others and swallowing shit. Well man, I hope you have a nice weekend and I hope they got your internet cable re-secured. You don't need another branch or storm knocking it completely down. Talk to ya soon, Brandon
