Winning Big

THE USUAL

       Today I walked into the office and directly to Mr. Tien’s office. And I was right, he didn’t do anything, and this doesn’t change any of my thoughts about him. I begged him and even said that I will take all of the cases in the next two months, but he refused. Why can a man be so inconsiderably stubborn? I also tried to persuade him to at the very least give me a 5% raise, again I was denied. He looked frustrated and annoyed,so I left. I was purely sad, I didn’t what to do. I sat at my desk semi-conscious,something had died in me.

       I didn’t even have someone to talk to, the co-workers minded their own business and I couldn’t call anyone at work. My eyes swelled up, as I continued to finish my work. Now, as I write this entry, I’m using a worn out pen that I can barely even see the ink marks on the paper. Hope, the word rings in my ear,hope, there is none. I wish that I can work happily without worrying about adversities and the likelihood of me being fired, but it’s difficult. I have read optimistic articles from free newspapers to cheer me up, but none of them seemed to help.I guess I’m stuck in this condition for the next 40 years.
