Welcome to my misanthropic journey through life. Is it almost over? God I hope so.

My Life is Funny...

...but only to myself, and my sister.
No one else (especially my family) seems to laugh at the "pathetic-ness" of my life. Why is that? Hmmm?![Big Grin](https://pics3.city-data.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
Anyhoo...this morning I finished my dumbed down resume. It took me about 5 minutes to strip most of my work experience, education and skills from my resume. Basically, I looked at my life, realized I am useless and I suck, and I decided to make a generic/entry-level resume, which should get me some minimum wage jobs.
One would hope, eh?
I wrote a list of 10 local employers (which are really National employers, such as Lowes, Home Depot, Walmart, Burger King, McDonalds, etc.) and went down the list to apply online with my dumbed down resume. I actually made it through Lowes' and Home Depots' job application online and applied for two customer service jobs in local stores.
Then my sister came into my room and started to spout off on how the universe sucks and "good luck" with applying to store/retail jobs. I told her I had already applied to two jobs and I unless the universe were to break my computer I was going to continue to apply all day to the remaining minimum wage jobs online.
So...here is the "funny" part.
I told her I was going to apply to "Burger King."
My sister said "Good luck. I got rejected by Burger King, they won't hire you either."
I laughed and typed "Burger King Jobs" into Google, to get to the corporate site to apply for jobs at my local Burger Kings.
BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH!
BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH!
Yes, boys and girls, I typed "Burger King Jobs" into Google, I hit the ENTER key and the BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH appeared on my computer screen.
FATAL ERROR!
FATAL ERROR!
My computer went into "help me I am dying" mode and rebooted itself from the BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH.
My sister laughed and said "I haven't got the BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH since 1997. I guess the universe is trying to tell YOU something."
Hell yeah. I guess I am not applying to or getting hired by Burger King.
Crap like this happens all the time when I decide to take my life into my own hands... and... I don't know... perhaps get a job so I can support myself and not live under that bridge.
At least I make the universe chuckle. Thanks universe!![Hand](https://pics3.city-data.com/forum/images/smilies/hand.gif)
