Attitudes change with every generation, ideas evolve and culture shifts, sometimes for better sometimes for worse. It's important to work, but that doesn't mean you have to flip burgers. Oppertunities can come, or you can force them to happen. Your job is a big part of your life, always work towards making sure it's an enjoyable part of it.lewistyrerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18158260901937235158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9187182007348482126.post-40507161483050988242008-10-07T08:48:00.000+05:302008-10-07T08:48:00.000+05:30Awww... too bad this is false.
