Are long distance relationships really realistic? To tell you the truth, I think long distance relationships are fantasies. Let’s say you meet someone on vacation. You fall for them in two days. Then after the trip you have hot phone calls, texts and emails with them. Every time you see them on the weekend, everything is perfect. Everyone is on their best behavior. The sex is great. The whole weekend is great. It’s like going on vacation with somebody over and over and over again. The only way you can really get to know somebody, though, is to see them every single day. You need to see what they’re like after a long day of work. You need to see how they are in the middle of a regular work day. Relationships are difficult to begin with, but long distance relationships tend to be fantasy-driven. Now, there are long distance relationships that are successful.

I started my job with the thought that I would just be here for a little while. This was going to be my job to hold me over while I looked for a better job. I mean, I have a degree from a good university, I have a strong skill set in high demand areas and I even enjoy doing the work in those areas. But here I am, sitting in an office for 40 hours a week doing something that is basically glorified customer service to assist some of the dumbest people on earth. Let me tell you something about customer service… Customer service representatives hate their jobs and when you are an asshole to them, they hate you.
