Does this Sound Unreasonable?
Let me know if this sounds unreasonable. I am absolutely useless right now. All I do all day is sleep, eat and watch Entourage and I’m sick of it. I’m tired of the same crap all over. Since this is what a fucking four year IS and Management degree gets you these days, here’s an idea:
I want an all expenses paid volunteer trip to somewhere in the Gulf for a few months. I’m not asking for any salary or hourly wages. BP just needs to cover my airfare, lodging, training, food and so on – and it doesn’t have to be fancy.
Level 3 (Wildlife Recovery and Rehabilitation) – This person would be a trained Wildlife Recovery & Rehabilitation volunteer, who will be helping with the clean-up of wildlife. It is a graded certification course. OSHA reviewed the Level 3 training package from PEC Premier and give special support for BP to use this training package, specifically for this incident. For this first wave of level 3 training, we are giving priority to the wildlife specialists and BP contractors.
F priority to wildlife specialists and BP contractors – bring it on. I can do it. Get me that level 3 training! And I don’t want to be one of those bogus Level 1 people who deliver supplies all day and knock on doors asking for money. I’m talking Level 3, all out OSHA training, wading in sludge in a hazmat suit scrubbing fucking pelicans with Dawn and a toothbrush so they live. Level 1 is for little bitches who don’t want to see oil. Guess what? I’m in New York, so I don’t see oil anyway (it’s not Jersey here).
Someone hook that shit up for me and I’ll be down there yesterday!
Don’t Worry, Be Happy
Let me share a little wisdom with you all. Ready? If you’re worried about something, don’t and here’s why:
- I used to worry about everything
- The people I chilled with all the time never worried about anything. I’d go crazy planning shit, figuring things out, doing calculus and OCDing about the way I wanted everything to turn out.
- The people I chilled with who never worried about anything or planned a thing always got what they wanted and everything worked out in their favor
- If things didn’t work out in their favor, they shrugged it off until things did work out
Stuff still didn’t work out for me and I was annoyed/pissed etc.
So I stopped giving a shit - Even if I still didn’t get what I wanted (which was probably the case), at least I didn’t care as much, but usually things worked out better.
- QED
If you keep worrying, not only will you get yourself sick, but you won’t get a job, guaranteed. This works for everything: not having money, trying to figure out accommodations, weekend plans, car problems, illness, stealing someone elses girlfriend, broken technology, plane crashes, comets, chupacabras, etc*
There you have it. Don’t freak out and things will be just fine. Freak out, and things will continue to suck, then you’ll get an ulcer. So stop giving a shit about everything and everything will be amazing.
*This doesn’t apply if you’re in deep shit. I am also not responsible for any harm that arises from you taking my advice to stop giving a shit. Some shit has to be given, just not a lot. This is a blog and I’m not a psychologist.

I just upgraded this blog to WordPress 3.0. I’m not here to review it. As expected, it’s pretty sweet. A lot of shit broke, so bear with me for a while while I figure out what’s messed up.
