I hear ya!

A friend of mine has moved to China to study. He's majoring in international business or something and he's fluent in Chinese. He won't be back til August and I might go visit him this summer...if I can lay off the pipe.

I had a job with him before at this marketing research place. It's sort of like telemarketing only we don't sell things, just take surveys over the phone. Anyways...he started working there again and he said he could get me in good with the higher-ups and I could be working there again.

Now he's in China and the people haven't called me back. After watching Office Space...I'd rather them not call back. I'd rather not go back to sitting in a booth and talking like a robot.

Lately I've been thinking of taking a 40 hour course at this bartending college that finds a place for you to work. I think it'd be fun and I've got a head start since I've been a server before and a busser/barback before that.

Anyways...I totally agree with your idea.
My friend makes me proud that he's doing something with his life. It inspires me to get off my ass but I don't know where to start I guess. Sometimes I just want to get on the road and see where it takes me. I don't have anything holding me back here, living for the day but counting on tomorrow.
