Antiwork

So this place I used to work for was just the worst. They were an app and idea development company that took advantage of anyone with money and a dream. Several clients invested their life savings or retirement funds with them, as they had been convinced that their honestly terrible ideas were guaranteed successes, and that the company had inside connections with several big box retailers and a team of pro developers. They absolutely did not. They also claimed they were making great progress on developing their apps when they hadn't even been started on yet.

I told him what i wanted, thinking to myself that maybe i had found a…

Hey, so I wouldn’t say I’m the most experienced when it comes to my resume, but I feel like I’m seeing a growing trend whenever I’m employed. Currently I’m working a part time summer job at a golf course until college starts, and whenever I get scheduled to work it goes along something like this: I try to enjoy my day, but it always ends up with me constantly watching the clock and having this weird feeling in my stomach the closer I get to having to go to work.
