Shhh .. it's a fantasy. Don't ruin it yet.
  
Right now it looks like I'm being pulled either into union organizing or shift management at a crappy chain restaurant. Choices, choices, choices....

How about a "calling" in retrospect. I look back over the years and find that my "calling" is to be a home maker. I'm very good at creating that space where people feel comfortable. I am also good as a confidant ....you tell me something and I am never going to repeat it.
Unless you are my daughter and it is something funny that would embarrass any twenty something year old.

Quote:... I was a history of hygiene major at NYU, and I was thrown out of college, and when I was thrown out I got a job. My father had a grocery store in Flatbush Avenue in Brooklyn, and he hired me to work for him. I was a delivery boy for my father, that was my first job, and I unionized the workers and we struck and drove him out of business. He's always been touchy about it. ![[Image: extraordinarywoo-sig.jpg?rlkey=x1nmxbwrp...pouidnfvtl]](https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/scl/fi/a6a72vica8gsyddmkhtxp/extraordinarywoo-sig.jpg?rlkey=x1nmxbwrpk9dzrupouidnfvtl) 
I have dealt with plenty of martyrs. They are dumb! Wiped out by their ignorance of warfare. Glory does not come from death. Only suffering for those exploited by it.
You should strive to improve your situation and provide society with something tangible. Egos and Pride are the worse attributes for martyrdom. I am starting my own business this summer with four coworkers!
