the third planet

...that's how the world began/that's how the world will end

funny how it's three months and then, when I'm still doing prep at 10:30 at night, 15 out of 18 items on my list having been done but still having to bag up the fish, my GM says "hey, have you thought about moving up to supervisor?"

I'm in too much of a conversational mood to say, Hey, Have You Read My Resume?.  But I decide to take the low road, and see where this is going.  Been with these guys all of three months, and i think I've found my home.  What I'm afraid of is so much regulation.  Paperwork.  Training.  Unlearning and then, relearning.

Am I too old to do it again?  One more time, just because I have nothing to lose?

What do I have to lose?

It is a sad thing to look back, when reaching 40, to think back on where you were ten years back, and the only difference is that you had a minor clear direction when you were 30.  But you were also going through the second worst break up of your life.  At 40...I'm realizing how much work and effort my father and mother put forth to make our family work.  I'm barely scraping by, and it's a bit embarrassing, but that's life.
