Anti-Resolutions

 

1.)    I will steer clear from the really old men at work. I work at a little family restaurant and through the year that I’ve worked there I’ve found that only the oldest of men are the perverts and the grabbers…

2.)    I shall stress no more. All my life I’ve always stressed over the smallest things and this year I plan to just go with the flow. Yes, it may be my senior year but I know that I’m going to graduate so there’s no worry there.

3.)    I will not “race” with Shelby on the highway. I’ve found that racing down the highway probably isn’t the best of things to do being how the first and last time we did race, there was a semi that had slowed down to a complete stop in front of me and I just about rear-ended him.

4.)    I will not allow Facebook gibberish get the best of me. When I was younger I thought Facebook was the coolest thing there was and the more friends you had the better. Well now I despise Facebook for everyone does nothing but complain, post things that make absolutely no sense and “fight.”

5.)    I will no longer go above and beyond. At work all the morning waitresses will complain non-stop about how something wasn’t done right or at all when the open in the morning. When I close I am always the last one to leave for I triple check everything and go above and beyond to please them but nothing ever seems good enough. So, in order to make my point I just get the easy things done and clock out and go home. There has always been dispute between morning and night waitresses but by doing this maybe they’ll see that enough is enough and they better appreciate what I did because I will no longer try to please them.

6.)    I will no longer “people watch” out loud. It has always been a little thing that my mom and aunts always did when we’d go places such as Wal-Mart. We would kind of just look around and joke about what we saw and what people looked like but I found it quit embarrassing when we realize that we are the loudest whisperers there are and are glared out of the store.

7.)    I will no longer watch game shows on T.V. The little time my dad and I have to spend together at home we usually watch T.V. except I absolutely hate watching games shows with him such as deal or no deal, wipeout, etc. My dad and I should be those people that sit in the audience and make all the effects because we are constantly yelling and getting mad at how stupid the people are and how they could have done things better or not have done what they did before. It’s a bit ridiculous.

8.)    I will no longer arrive to school late. I have never really been to school late before but once in a while, such as today, I didn’t wake up until 8 o’clock this morning. It might not be a big deal for those who live in town but for those who live 20-30 miles away from school, yah, it’s kind of a big deal.

9.)    I will bring on my “attitude” at work. My job is full of a lot of smack talking and he said she said business. We had a new waitress and two of the other night waitresses told her that she would not like working with me because I have an “attitude.” Truth is, I do not have an attitude, I just get mad at simple everyday things that would make other people mad as well. But, when I get mad, I don’t talk very much unless it’s to my customers and I have a really serious face. They had this poor girl all scared to work with me and when she said that I showed some attitude and the next day, that girl was a no call-no show and was fired. Mission accomplished J

10.)  I will no longer ride in my brothers “Man-Van” My older brother had recently wrecked his 2012 Chevy Cruze so it put him into a little debt causing him to purchase an old minivan from our neighbors in Carthage so he can go to and from work. Christmas eve rolled around and I was to ride with my brothers, Billy and J.P, to Arkansas for our family gathering. When they came and picked me up we were riding in the “Man-Van.” When I climbed in there was absolutely no room due to the presents but I managed to squeeze in the back. The bad thing about that drive was both of my brothers’ smoke; one smokes cigarettes and the other smokes cigars. They both had their windows down non-stop causing the cold air to bash me in the face and every time they ashed the ashes went right in my eyes, mouth, nose. Ugh, so terrible. Merry Christmas to me.
