Dammit, I always forget about profiles. Thanks for the info, it does but things in perspective.

Your post said that you were fired for taking personal time off after you went into great detail as to how you decide if you wanted to go into work or not, so how do you expect anyone to have have a different view.
I may have given the wrong impression with that little diatribe. I don't wake up on a monday and go "Is today a good day for games? No, let's go to work" in a process-of-elimination-style-affair. I wake up, and 75% of the time I waste my day at the job. It's just that the 25% I take off shouldn't come with the "HOW DARE YOU NOT COME TO WORK, WRETCH" attitude that's so prevalent in business. I take issue with the notion I should feel guilty for this. You'd think they'd realise the job was terminally unrewarding and that an intelligent chap like myself has better things to be doing.

I used to think life was about nothing but partying and having fun....and damn, just like you I couldnt keep a job either*, (until I was about 20)....then I learned about accountability, not only to myself but society as well, in other words I grew up.
Ai'ight. So we've reached this point of the topic.
You really don't mean "grow up". What're you're actually saying is: "grow to accept". I'm looking for a way to stay in this society, whilst being the person I am. The advice about "growing to accept" may even get used one day But it's not my ideal state.

So I've got my PoV, you've got yours and never the two shall agree. Ho hum.
Nice talking with you, anyway. I'll stop ranting now.

* I can keep a job though. Held a damn good office job for 3 years (I was office manager no less), but had to leave due to educational commitments. I can pretend to be a wage-slave.
