When you're a minion under multiple layers of excess management, it's rare that your opinion gets counted...or at least that's how I feel in my current position.
Top that off with a healthy dose of your typical lack of appreciation for all things good provided to the spawn, life can be downright bitter pill to swallow...
But when someone who's supposedly a friend treats you poorly, then seemingly has the audacity to just ignore the situation after it's been rather pointedly brought to their attention, it's absolutely defeating.
I don't like confrontation...I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings. So I take it and take it until it hurts too much...
But what about me? Should I be forced to endure such behaviour?
Shouldn't I be treated with more respect and also with gratitude for what it is I share of myself?
I don't have much, but what I do have, I share willingly and without complaint or resentment.
But I don't feel willing and complaint-free and that's what has me upset about the situation more than anything.
I strive to be more like my MJ - but some days, it's just really hard to turn the other cheek and keep giving...

No Chris! You really shouldn't! It's things like that that invite people to do these things to you repeatedly! Just go at them like you did the cab driver, and it's guarenteed that you'll either be feared, or in a lot of fights.
Trust me, things like that aren't easy to endure, thats why you don't!
~Love, Lan.
And your NOT unappreciated!
