Yesterday I recieved a call from my father, who was, at the time, visiting my cousins, uncles, etc. over in Las Vegas (he's a trucker, got a load out there and a day off). Anyway, he calls me and asks what I'd think if I had the chance to move out there till the end of summer, live with my filthy, stinking rich cousins (seriously. Like THE richest people in Vegas. My second cousin in-law owns a huge cab and transport company out there), in a mansion with everything I could ever want. The catch? I'd have to work a normal 8 hour day sorting through bills, files, and such on their network (PLUS I'd make about 3 grand in that month). Easy-peasy stuff. Sounds good to me! I have nothing holding me back so I immediately accept. I go upstairs and talk with my grandparents about it, in which my grandpa says to go for it because I may never get another opportunity. Just to be sure, I contacted nearly all of my friends (online and off). I only got one no and the rest said go for it. I call my dad back and tell him I'm all for it. Things are going great! A few hours later I get a call saying that I can't go because of some technicality that I didn't even understand. I mean seriously, WTF? Why is it that every time I get an incredibly, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, something fucks it all up? Man, God, you really must be testing me for something...

This should be in Officer's Club. Don't get down about it, you'll get a different job. If it's not as easy, that's okay. You can feel like you earned your money. Maybe next summer this opportunity will present itself again, who knows. If it couldn't work out, it's not because they wanted to let you down, they just couldn't work it out. |

Originally posted by Danielle I"m not getting down. Life goes on so I might as well, too. I'm just pissed about the whole situation because it's happened before (well not the same exact situation, but it was relative). Sometimes you just need to let these things be known by others, you know? I was debating to put it here or Officer's Club, but I put it here because its been more active lately. If a mod wants to, go ahead and move it. |

Good old Grey. For some reason I saw that coming. It's good that you aren't "getting down" and...well actually that's about it. And as my newest catch phrase goes... Until we post again, good luck...I made that up all by myself you know. |
