Desk Job

“I see your face also know you’re not suited for an office job”

A new friend of my mom’s told me this recently and I’ve been reevaluating my profession of choice at the moment. When I took to twitter a dear friend of mine told me the same thing, that she couldn’t believe that I have a desk job. She said that I was so active in school, running around and all, that it was quite hard to believe that I am stuck with a boring desk job.

Well, it’s been two years now and I’m still here in this dingy place. A lot has changed over the years and while I don’t particularly like the changes, there’s nothing I can do about it. people have come and gone and yet I’m still here. I’m beginning to regret making that promise to senpai that so long as they are still here, I will not leave.

About a year and a half ago, my best friend in the office resigned and I became really quiet to the point my boss asked me

“what’s up with you? I haven’t heard your noise lately”

How can I be lively when the only person I talk to is no longer around and the rest of them prefers to talk among themselves because we have a language gap?

But things are different now. While I still hate my job and everything it stands for, i suppose things are more tolerable now. Why you may ask?
