You have to start from the bottom and work your way up. Set a goal and go for it. If someone says, you can't do it. **** THEM!!! what will they know what you cannot do. The best people in the world started off as nothing and worked hard to be where they are. This is your life! Do what you want! And never look back.

Only once you've made it, you can say, "Look at what I have achieved!"

It's true. Looking at the richest people in the world, they're all college/university dropouts (some didn't even get that far).

Nothing can stop you getting to the top, you just have to want it.

Well, you have to start somewhere. If that is MacDonalds, then so be it.
My cousin used to work in MacDonalds... Now he works in a country club. You work your way up!

I'm going to miss having money to spend

All I ever bought was CDs and train tickets, so I guess I can probably cope

Honestly, besides the job and your parents... would a world around you be better. No, it would devistate everybody, even us on EA. I'd hate to think that you would go and have to remember this conversation for a long time.


I still haven't got over the loss of some good friends. And i'm only 21!
(Now I'm getting a bit teary)
thanks. stuff my parents. am sorry about your friends

Then maybe the service would only improve if you were there. Maybe they were understaffed. You really can't be picky about jobs. Snobbery isn't going to get you anywhere.
