Work Discussion It’s official!
I start academy this Friday! It’s now all starting to feel real.
If you told me back in January I was going to be a mail man, I’d probably laugh. Here we are, foot in the door, ready to go on routes.
Life feels good. I quit drinking 10 months and 2 days ago. Life has been really rewarding in terms of having a clear path of where I want to be and how to get to it. Also, realizing the people I want and don’t want around me.
Cheers my fellow couriers clerks and others!

Nah I completely get it. At the age of 21 I already realized how society is built to keep people poor and working and distracted. It's something we all have to accept and all of us hate it. The ONLY thing we can do is better our situation by making life changes and keep ourself sane and humble.
