Not Getting What I Rightfully Deserve...So I'm Making Them Pay

Who am I talking about? The Home Depot that is. They know I should be getting paid at the minimum of $12 an hour. And yes, I'm still bitter that I'm making $0.20 under $10. So I went out searching for a job on none other than craigslist, and I stumbled upon a job that'll look good on my resume. And boy, was I lucky to find such a job. What is it? It's a position as a Personal Fitness Trainer!! Yessir, something in my field, and away from the heat, the annoyance of rude and stupid customers, and doing something that I have passion for...and that's working to help improve a person's health. We take working out the body for granted. You may say that you're skinny now, but once you get older, that metabolism level decreases and the pounds add on. So if you're looking for a personal trainer, here I am. Soon to be trained, soon to be certified.

I'll definitely be making more than what I'm making at The Home Depot. And if they ask me to stay...are you kidding me? I'm definitely saying goodbye to the orange aprons, there's no doubt in my mind about that. I hate leaving the store with the scent of lumber on my clothes. I hate the management, but I love the employees there. Cool as Fuck might I add, but the management don't understand how hard you work. They don't acknowledge and tell you, "hey, you're doing a really good job." Nothing is ever like that. But don't get me wrong, not all of management are dicks. Just the occasional "Red Face" Stu and "The Smart Ass, Always about Rules and Justifying with the Law, More Black than White Motherfucker" Wayne, "Lazy Ass Bitch That Doesn't Do Anything for Employees" Theresa, and "Doesn't Care About Employees, Only Himself" Donovan. Others that I didn't mention, the other 3 are straight chill.

It's time for me to move on from the madness, and move on with better and bigger opportunities. I have to be aggressive and playing it safe is not the way to go. From this current job, I have learned to be firm with what I want, otherwise, I'm not going to get it. So I'm going to make it clear for them that I want to get paid this much money. I fucked up the first time, and I'm not going to fuck up again.
