I've come to realize I've messed around too much with my life especially with school, here I am working at Trader Joes a company that bases their pay rate on "experience" well I have 6+ years experience in the grocery business and I'm getting paid SHIT money, there are people at my work that get more money than me with no prior experience how the fuck is that possible? no disrespect to them as people and personality but honestly its not hard to see that theres a problem with that. I know I don't have the greatest attitude but I know that would change if I were gettin paid what I should be making I know I'm still learning every day at that place but c'mon.
This just opens up my eyes bigger and wider knowin that I have to get my act straight and get out of that place, being the oldest boy on my mom's side of the family a lot of little cousins look up to me so the bar for me is set pretty damn high. I've wanted to be so many things growin up as a kid, I remember watchin Apollo 13 and tellin myself that I wanted to be an astronaut, then I got involved with hockey which has always been my love. I've wanted to be a fire fighter, a music producer, a director, not once did I ever try to pursue one of those careers except i played lots of ice hockey on different teams but I even gave up on that. It's like Lorenzo said in A Bronx Tale "the saddest thing in life is wasted talent. You can have all the talent in the world, but if you don't do the right thing nothing happens. But when you do right good things happen."
Well is time to do the right thing from here on out.
