That's right girls! All you have to do to be promoted into a good company is....survey says....BE A GIRL! No more pushing yourself in college to be the best you can! No more having to put in your dues in the mail room or a receptionist starting position! No more do you actually have to learn all the responsibilities of all those that make your company work! Nope, all you have to do is have tits! Doesn't that just make you feel good about yourself? Being promoted not because they think you deserve the position, believe that you can succeed by how much hard work you've put in, nope, just because they don't want to offend any feminist groups. So you are hired in place of a guy who has put years into the company, who knows tons more than you, and is way more qualified than you in every way. But what do you care? You are twenty two and SO oppressed! Pay no mind to the generations of women that actually had to work to get promoted. Nope, they weren't idealists like you. You deserve to get this job just because of the additional X chromosome.
I think I laid it on pretty thick how ridiculous this frame of mind is. Doesn't bother any of you that they don't think or care that you are smart enough or even capable of doing this job? They promote you with very little confidence in you, and in most cases setting you up to fail. Not only that they hired you instead of a guy who has years in the company, more than likely married with kids and could use the extra money. Now I understand that you may be well intentioned and doing the same as everyone, trying to get a leg up in the company so shame on the company for doing this to you and the other guy. But if you are one of those fembots out there, do you really think this the way it should be? Your obsessive complaining has insulted the bulk of the female population and has offended us because we want promoted because of how hard we've worked, how well we've educated ourselves and prepared ourselves for a job. And if we get the job its because we were the most qualified, not because of what gender we are. So get rid of that ridiculous since of entitlement.

Occupy Wallstreet
Okay I'll start off by telling you all of my little story. I went into college at 18 years old all bright eyed and bushy tailed thinking "I'm going to be a teacher! I'm going to be the most awesome teacher there is and change lives for the better!" Fast forward the five year where I'm volunteering at after school programs finishing up my degree and hating every moment of it. But the one part I liked was counseling the kids. It was the one thing I did where I could see I was making a real difference in a kid's life and helping them make better decisions. That's where I was the most happy and the most fulfilled. Back then it was a lot harder to get financial aid if you already had a degree so I figured I'd stop and take a break because I ran in head first into getting the teaching degree and I didn't want to make the same mistake again. I knew I wanted to go into child psych but I wanted to do more research before jumping into another major and getting myself further in debt. Well then life happened and I wasn't able to go back to college right away either.
Another example my husband went to school for anthropology majoring in archeology (and no it isn't as exotic as you think it is. Indiana Jones is a filthy liar.) The pay is decent at best and he was never home because the only way you can make ends meet is if you NEVER stop working. When you get to one job you have to look for your next one. As you can imagine that got old pretty quick and he got a job back here at home working night shift at Wal-mart because he got tired of being away from me and his family all the time. He is now going back to college for a degree in computer programing while working now full-time for the state.
Now saddled with the debt of college on top of my other bills, rent, car, utilities, and misc. credit cards I'm not going to lie that sometimes money gets tight. But do you see me abandoning my job to squat out on the street and harass honest hardworking people? No! Do you see me complaining about how unfair my life is that I'm stranded without a college degree and all this debt to pay off? No! Do you see me rioting, littering, and turning to assault and battery? No! Do you see me blaming the rich, people that have worked hard to get where they are? No! I didn't abandon my job, my bills, or my family to complain about the poor education I received grades 5-12 and blame it on people that had nothing to do with it.
Do I agree with how colleges set up their curriculum? No, absolutely not. I don't believe that in order to be a Mathematician you have to take so many English, history, art, physical ed. or any other general education classes. What was the point of K-12 if you have to do this all again. Money is the reason why. It is ridiculous to waist anymore of these kids time and put them even further in debt. Just think how more efficient the states would run if colleges operated more like tech schools. You would go in for your field and only your field and only have to pay for the classes you needed, not the ones you were forced to take. Its not like I don't feel cheated because I do but sitting down, whining about it and turning to violence on innocent people is no solution either. All of you are stupid if you think this is getting you anywhere. Personally I hope you all get arrested and while you're in jail you should get the beating your parents never gave you. Here's some very good advice. Life is NOT fair. No one OWES you crap. And you do NOT get any awards for participating. The only good things you receive in life is doing good hard work and being a good person. Honestly where has camping out on a garbage infested street gotten you so far?

Life
I'm going to start this blog out very simple and with a good note. And hopefully it'll be something that helps some of you with your own lives. Life is a gift, and you only get one so you need to make its a good one because when you get older you realize how quickly it goes. Life is important so value and respect it.
Life is all about the choices you make and every choice no matter how small effects you five minutes from now and five years from now. So those choices you make, make sure they are good ones. And contrary to a popular believe that right and wrong are subjective this is NOT true. Because there is a difference between a person making a bad choice and ending up in prison instead of becoming a role model to a community. Not to say every choice you make will be that severe but all of it effects you and your life and how people see you. If you're like me you don't give to craps about what people think of you or how they see you. But I do however care about how my family and close friends see me and those are the people you don't want to hurt, blow off, or think badly of you. There is a difference between a good and a bad decision and when you come to the crossroads the good/right thing to do is never the easiest. But if you do the right thing you will know that you did even if no one else did and that will save your conscience.
Doing the right thing is never easy but those around you will respect you for it even if they don't see it right away. And when people see this of you they often come to you having burdens of their own and ask you to listen to their story. I've done enough right and enough wrong in my life to have learned this. Life is a crazy unpredictable thing and you never end up where you plan to be and even if you do the road to getting there was more than likely filled with twist, turns, detours, and dead ends. But nine times out of ten where you end up is exactly where you need to be.
