Meta Meta Meta Meta… (META!)
Well it’s been over a month, and I haven’t written anything. It’s not for lack of ideas though. It’s lack of motivation. I can’t blame work this time, I’m just in a bit of a creative lull. People…
On Friday, I spent some time around Mrs. Kae’s house after work. We were going out to watch a film and a band that night, so I left earlier than usual, on the 3pm bus; the school bus.
So some chavs are on, and start having a go at me, because I wasn’t from school, and I was trying to listen to my music in peace. Long story short, he called me a mug because:
- I have a lot of qualifications, yet I’m working at ASDA
- I get up at 3:30am more days than not in order to get to work on time at 6am.
- I should be getting somewhere better.
And I could moan about how he is so naive, that qualifications don’t mean anything these days, and that you go for any job you can with any sort of prospect, then when you’re in work you can pick and choose. Or I could retort with that it’s my choice to get to work for 6am, that I had more options on my shift times.
After a few more insults, I find that he’s doing a GCSE in Construction, and that he boasts about getting laid with the equally-aged (or lack thereof) chavette at his side.
So yes, I am a mug.
I am a mug because:
- I actually had the gall to take a job with unsociable hours because I didn’t want to sit on the dole.
- I am supporting that chav idiot with my taxes so he can do a ‘GCSE’ (I use the term lightly) in what is ultimately a failing industry.
- I pay NI so when he fucks up his bricklaying and breaks a finger, he can go get free treatment on the NHS, not to mention what complications he gets from ‘getting laid’ before he’s even out of school.
- And when everything else fails, he always has Jobseeker’s Allowance, paid for by people like me, because he thinks getting up at half past three in the morning is too much for a job.
I am helping support a society that encourages behaviour like his. The schools, his parents, and the councils and government are failing him, and people like me will pick up the tab to support him or set him right. Cheers guys.
