Is there a way to find inner-peace working retail/shitty jobs or is the whole point of the experiment to give someone enough strife to make something meaningful creatively.

Look at most rock musicians... They usually have a few amazing albums and then can't get it up again for even one more song of relevance... Some say it's because they got old and you can only have so many works of art... But maybe it's because we should of kept Mick Jagger and Billy Corgan working at Mcdonald's even when they were turning out decent albums... We should of had this Emperor's new clothes thing where people knew a musician, writer, director, was turning out the most amazing work of their lives, but we kept them in their day jobs and kept them at an even keel... Worked for Kafka!

Nothing fires the flames of any fucking dreams more than watching the majority of our human race purchase shit in a retail environment... Watching the energy they put into buying shit, what shit truly completes them, how they treat workers they know no one will ever hold them accountable for behaving around... Food industry, retail, public service... It's amazing to have a job in this position and have the joy of watching them.

It's a shame I can only work one retail job in my career right now... I love watching them... How they need what they need at all costs... "If your not into this hat as much as I am your an asshole!!!"... The trick is to treat the real creepy ones like they're being paid for a secret reality TV show your starring on... They're only fucking with you because they're acting... At the end of your life you'll get to see the first episode.. Yippi!

You can bring any philosophy you want to your job, any living in the moment mindframe, any "they know not what they do" thought... But still people can be down-right mean and it really sucks to see how some people are face to face with you... When they don't need to treat you with respect...

Oh what's going to happen when alien beings of a supreme race finally come down and we realize maybe we should of been putting that energy into loving each other and evolving instead of big-macs and fancyboy jeans.

Maybe that's the problem!! We have nothing to compare ourselves to anymore.... What if there was only one videogame company in the world???!! They would have no competition and we would never have anything above pong because they never felt the need to make it better... Now maybe if we had a bunch of alien races that not only didn't want to kill us but drove us so jealous with the way they let their beings evolve and mature and didnt' cram down material goods and buying new cars and religions that put us at ends all the time...... HOLY SHIT!!! We as a race would be making The Legend Of Zelda in the game of life.

But since we only have to go against dogs and apes... We've gotten quite lazy... Oh well... I'm off to leave you awsome comments on Myspace while I drink Gatorade.
