Burn out
Just like a light bulb, burnt out. Don't want to work in an office or anywhere.
Been fired dozens of times. But there was only one job i regret losing at the time, that first CPA firm, their culture was so alien to me, it took me a few
years to understand, but now there's no way i could do it again.
My biggest mistake was being so bad at negotiating. Always let them say how much first, if they ask u how much u want to be paid. But i always caved in & gave
a low figure, out of desperation. Wait months for a 'phone call, u lower ur expectations. Chaldeans will jew u down to minimum wage. Wish I had been rude &
got up to leave at that point.
but its ok. No plans, hate it all anyways, will die a virgin.

Sorry dude, that sucks. What do you mean, fired dozens of times? Are you able to work? What is your usual job?
Don't feel too bad about being a virgin. My nickname in the fraternity was PermaVirg. As in, permanent virgin. I'm embarrassed to admit that it almost came
true, but thankfully I was able to make it happen-- without resorting to hookers. I'm a late bloomer.

We have many Assyrians in Chicago. In particular, Assyrians from Iraq. I will have to look up the differences between
them as Chaldeans. Assyrians here seem to have money. They mostly live around Skokie and far northside. They tend to live around the Jewish communities.

Oh ok. My searches show most Assyrians are Orthodox while Chaldeans are Catholic. Still, they are basically the same
people, but Chaldeans accept an Arab identity more readily while Assyrians love to remind people they are not Arab. I learned something new today.

Your job can suck and you can be miserable at work but you can still get married and have a family.
