Re: The ground floor
Dear Citibank,
I am writing to apply for a job with your company, and I should say ahead of time that I am using you to tease my mother. I don't have any interest in whatever it is you people do. Every time I see her, she starts in on me again. Why don't you have a career yet? What are you doing with your life?
But Citibank, you know what the best day of my life was? The day I realized that I could work a shitty part time job to cover my rent and my food, and the rest of my time could be my own.
So, I apologize for using your current economic woes to tease my mother, and her idea of my banker cousin as a model I should aspire to. I know you guys are probably freaking out. You need to just relax. Think about what I said. I have a pretty nice life.
Joey Comeau"
THIS IS EXACTLY HOW I FEEL ABOUT LIFE (and why I work P-Tizzle)!
Now if I could just have a madly-successful website and super-selling books...
