Writing on the wall

Sometimes people don't see the writing on the wall and I have no clue how. It is interesting because I think most of the time it is because people are ignoring the the writing willfully. I think they want to stay ignorant because the whole ostrich syndrome or ignorance is bliss bullshit. Well I have ignored it before and each time I ignore it I regret it.

I ignored it when I got laid off the first time because I didn't want to believe I was going to get laid off, but I sure did. We were told "No more layoffs" then 2 weeks later I got laid off because I was to be hired. What am I needed for I was too new. So naturally it makes sense for me to be laid off. That's what I mean by the writing is on the wall, it's fucking obvious.

People need to wake up and start being real. Optimists don't get anywhere in life in my opinion. If you are always hoping and wishing for the best then you probably aren't going anywhere fast. I hate being called negative, I am a realist. I believe in practicality. I don't believe in hoping for things to happen I make them fucking happen. That's why I am employed and I make good money. That's why I have raised my salary 100% since 2008. I don't think many people can say that. You need to take charge, things don't get done on their own.

So if you have a gut feeling about something then you should probably pay the fuck attention. Your gut is talking to you.
