...I just keep my mouth closed. Sometimes..I don't even bother to express the way that I feel also.
The reason why.. Though it matters to me, it doesn't matter to the people I express this to. Oh, you can tell..their eyes glass over, it's a sign that they are losing interest. But, it doesn't when it's concerning them, when they want something from you like advice. As soon as they get it, they move on as if nothing has transpired between the both of you.
These are the SAME people who come to you for advice ALL the time. When I try and explain to them why..things are the way they are..it could be anything that we are talking about. People, items and situations..they FAIL to understand that is how the world IS. It does not revolve around your situation. You aren't the ONLY ONE this has happen to. It has happened to others and you should deal with it the way they have...if not, move on. Consider it a lost. I will give an example.
Say you're looking for a job, say a job online. And the employer wants you to go thru some steps, some procedures to see if you're qualified for the position. Though you may feel that you are qualified for that position..so are maybe HUNDREDS of other people. It's a process that you and anyone else who applies for the position. You want the job, you go thru the procedures in applying..there are NO shortcuts. And, even though you applied, doesn't warrant a call back, an email saying they want to interview you. YOU WAIT..but you keep applying at other online places..SIMPLE. But I see where the problem is.
You compare yourself to me..and what I do. You think your age gives you some sort of seniority over what is what...of what I do. You think your College Education is a sign that you wear on your chest as if you are better than me, better than others with a High School G.E.D. I over look all of that. I tell you that you can have this job or any other job if you meet the qualifications..along with 100's of others. Your education does not warrant a call back, an email for an interview. That is just how the world is NOW. So many other factors play into it also and when I TRY and explain it to you, you can't understand where I am coming from. AGAIN, it's how the world is.
What bothers me is... That most people I have come across feel this way. Younger than me, older than me and even the same age as I am. I ask myself..what do these people do all day. I ask..do they read the newspapers, watch the news? Do they engage in conversations with others standing in any given line they are waiting in? I do know one thing and it's be proven... You can live your life well into your Golden Years, and NOT learned a darn thing about life, about people. That you limit your experiences in life ONLY to what you FEEL comfortable with..anything else, you can't be bothered. So, when you come across a detour in life of something that you REALLY want..you find that things have changed..time has changed fro the way they did things..soooo many years ago.
All I can say is this.. YOU have to STAY current. That piece of electronic thing you hold in your hand to your ear..can give you ALL the information you want on EVERYTHING!!
Google NEVER comes back with NO ANSWER..NEVER!!
