I am not internally circuited for a sales job. At my job we work as a "team", but we all receive different paychecks based upon individual commission. I've been working here for over a month and have already witnessed coworkers trying to shark my initial sale and make it their own. I've seen a coworker belittle another coworker just to make a sale, on more than one account....

This whole dog eat dog world is something I've wanted to escape from. Where people will stand on your shoulders to kick your teeth in, just to get ahead in "life". Backstabbers and 2 faced liars abound.

I accepted this job to appease my families worries and concerns for my future, not for my own. I turn 30 this week and they've been using my age as a reason to " get my shit together" and, to essentially live a life that they would approve of. When my dad, (saying all this)...doesnt understand me at all.


Trivial first world problems I know... but have mercy lord, I feel so fucking alone here.

You have to be true to yourself first and foremost. And you can't let anyone live your life for you. Parents want the best for their children yes. But when a parent pushes their desires for your life above your own, it's not what's best for the child they're concerned about, but what's less worrying for themselves.

All I ever wanted was for my children to be happy and healthy. The paths they chose may not have been what I would have chosen for them, but then, it wasn't my journey to walk. My only responsibility was to see to it that they had the strength, fortitude and courage to climb whatever mountain that stood in their way.

Do you think your family would be pleased or happy to find out that you're living a lie just because of them?

Much love.

Family is important. But your an adult. Do what you'd like.

Somewhat off topic. I'm 37 never been married and no children. I've fully and absolutely let down most my family, according to them. I should have been a married with kids by the time I was like 25.

Then again the majority of my family has been at least twice divorced, with several adult children that despise them each. Not to mention all the debt the parents have for years of college debts. For children that almost hate them.

Yada, yada, yada.

This evil engineered society has done quite a good job of ripping the family unit apart. I feel for ya bro, sounds like your rents are as set in their ways and as stubborn as mine.
