In literature, there are several themes and images that are used as devices to signify trouble.
In life, I think I am 1 of those signs.
Since my first job when I started working in the fitness department of the sheriff's office, I've been charged with either overhauling operations or building them from scratch. I'm fungus on a dead tree, if your company hires me, it means decay has set in.
I'm like Michael Clayton, except I don't have to break laws to hide the laws you've already broken.
Many people would feel bad about this. Think about it, EVERY SINGLE JOB I've been hired for had some major and glaring problem that needed to be fixed. And every time within 1 year, I got put in charge of fixing it.
Before people started hiring me to fix their problems, it would seem that I got hired because the place kinda sucks.
Sure, after that, I started getting brought in to solve problems, but that's not much better. Now, the responsibility to undo the wrongs is mine. It only seems like I've been in the work force for a long time, but I'm not even 30 yet.
Let that sink in: I have under a decade of work experience, I'm 27 years old and I'm on company reconstruction job #4. My ENTIRE career has been overhauling gym businesses.
Where's my reality show on Spike Tv?
Oh, that's right, I got jerked around by their tattoo show...
Don't get me wrong, I'm honored that some many people have trusted me so much at a young age and with little experience to update and upgrade their operations. Maybe there's hope after all. Maybe it's not all about a DOB and how many pages your resume is. Maybe people can just tell if you're smart enough to know how to change things, have the courage to try and if you have the work ethic to see it through.
