I've had this little notion running about in my head for the last couple days and I have to say it makes a hell of a lot of since. While I was talking to my cousin's girlfriend, whom I rarely see eye to eye with, I picked up on a phrase "putting on a face for the public." Now keep in mind we're talking about how we're required to act in the search for a job in today's world. We're discussing mainly food service, which I'm sure you all know to be a rather trying profession. I have to hand it to those waiters and waitresses that can bite their toungues when some prick complains about his not so well done steak. I realized, when applying for a position as Barista, I'm not cut out for it. In fact in any job we're forced to put on a face for the public. We put ourselves through such falsified instances and repressions every day. It's all for the sake of professionalism or letting some piece of crap carry on with his hig and mighty tone while you pump his gas or pack his burger. I for one would rather cast it all aside and jump right into the acting business. If that's what gets the job done then fine. Fucking excellent, let's cut out all the fat and get right down to it and be fake. I'd love to smile and hate you behind a grin while you pay me 8 dollars an hour you fucker.
