We ' re all food if you ' re hungry enough . <| sep |> The retailers play up this idea that you can get onceinlifetime deals on Black Friday , to the point where many poor people feel like Black Friday is their only option for being able to afford the things they wantneed . The retailers are definitely partially at fault for playing on people ' s desperation . <| sep |> At 18 , I decided not to go to college at least , not yet and now I have 2 jobs . I work landscaping 72 then retail I close the store , handle the money and irate customers from 310 . Most days I ' m out of the house by 630 am , and my head hits the pillow at 11 pm , just to start all over again in the morning . I start my day with my physically exhausting job , then finish with my mentally stressful job . Do I want a girlfriend ? Yes . It ' s really strange to have friends in every aspect that have them and ask my opinion on certain issues , only to inform them I ' ve never had one so I can ' t help them . I want to spend nights at her house and vice versa , celebrate holidays with them , etc . But in all seriousness do I have the time ? Not really . There ' s a girl that I work retail with right now that I haven ' t been able to stop thinking about sense I met her 5 weeks ago , but keep getting told it ' d be all wrong , from my workers and my brain . The main complaints from workers 1 Don ' t date someone you work with especially sense I ' m the boss , even though you date a coworker at my level and it ' s going swimmingly . 2 She ' s 2 years younger than me , so she ' s still a kid . And the main complaint from my brain I don ' t want to ruin what we have already . We have a lot of fun working together , laughing and joking about stupid shit , I look forward to nights were she ' s with me . And I ' d love to have that same feeling outside of work , but is it worth screwing that up ? I can ' t decide . Plus I have the same issue many others have mentioned who would stoop this low anyhow ? I like to think that I ' m a pretty confident guy , I really was in high school . I was friends with everybody , everybody liked me , knew who I was , and I put myself way out there for dances , sporting events , shows , etc . Yet I never did the party scene . So I never drank , did drugs , had wild sex with classmates , any of that . I had 4 close friends that I hung out with maybe 1 weekend a month . 3 went to college far away and the 4 th , my best friend , went into the military . So ya , there ' s that .
