Avenged Sevenfold - Unholy Confessions
"I'll try," she said as he walked away.
"Try not to lose you."
Two vibrant hearts could change.
Nothing tears the being more than deception,
unmasked fear.
"I'll be here waiting" tested and secure.
Nothing hurts my world,
just affects the ones around me
When sin's deep in my blood,
you'll be the one to fall.
"I wish I could be the one,
the one who won't care at all
But being the one on the stand,
I know the way to go, no one's guiding me.
When time soaked with blood turns its back,
I know it's hard to fall.
Confided in me was your heart
I know it's hurting you, but it's killing me."
Nothing will last in this life,
our time is spent constructing,
now you're perfecting a world... meant to sin.
Constrict your hands around me,
squeeze till I cannot breathe,
this air tastes dead inside me,
contribute to our plague.
Break all your promises,
tear down this steadfast wall,
restraints are useless here,
tasting salvation's near.

BACK IN BUSINESS...
I'm back.....=D
Haha. After a long time of not updating, I'm back and better than ever. But I'm still damn bored. All I've been doing is moving from the computer to the TV in my room. What a life huh?
The last week has been somewhat a bit weird for me. I was offered a job about a week ago. It was with a company doing network marketing. Wanna know what they were marketing? It was a bed fitted with a biomagnet of some kind. It's supposed to help aid the flow of blood and gets rid of cholesterol in the body. I've done a bit of research and it seems that the thing actually works. The magnetic flux gives the blood cells a sort of boost as they try to move past the barrier of cholesterol. Here's the catch. One mattress costs $5000!!! With that kind of money, you could free a whole Sudanese village of their misery.
Ok, enough about the product. Back to me. I went for the first interview on the 20th. I was asked to fill up a form. In the highest education space I wrote 'Sec Sch Leaving Cert'. Makes me seem like a dropout. Anyway, During the short interview, I was asked to choose between Sales Admin and Sales Marketing. I chose the admin one thinking it was easier. But I was open to other choices.
Two days later, I was called up to go to their monthly company seminar. The company is actually quite small. Only about 200+ people split into 10 units. I was supposed to be part of DW Giant Imperial. The seminar was okay, but it was also quite overwhelming. The workers there have a tight rapport and are quite close to each other. I felt sort of left out. At the end, I was told to come for the second interview the next day.
At the second interview, I was given a tour of the place and a presentation was made about the product. I have to admit, my presenter's English wasn't that good. But I was able to understand most of it. After that, I went to see the senior manager for my next round of interviews. There, I was able to clear my doubts about the product. At the end, I was told to come down for training on Monday, which was 3 day away.
When I went home, I was somewhat still not confident about the job. It was not what I had signed up for and it required me to travel around to meet clients for appointments. This is something I seriously didn't want to have to do for a job. I finally made my decision that noght to back out of the job.
Two days later, when one of the guys from the company called, I told the person that I wanted to back out. In my amazement, I was told to go see the manager to tell her personally that I was quitting. Quitting?? I don't think I was even working for them. I hadn't signed any agreements and I sure was not breaking my back for them yet. But I was told to quit??? What the hell. But nevermind, I am a professional man and decided to do the polite thing.
I went there the next day and was asked to talk to one of their supervisors. We sat at the company balcony and we talked. I tried to tell him my reason for not wanting to work there. But over and over he tried to 'solve' my problems. The matter of the fact was that I just simply did not want to work but he didn't want to let me go. I knew something fishy was going on when some guy called halfway through our conversation. He was from the company and was asking me whether I was still interested in the job. I was like "What the heck!!!". First, they ask me that I had to 'quit' the job. Now some idiot was calling me asking me if I was still interested. That just raised my blood to the boiling point. I made my last stand and Told the supervisor in a stern yet pissed off voice that there was no stopping me from leaving the job. He finally gave in and let me go. I was finaly relieved of my frustration. I stood up, shook the guys hand and left.
I thought any job that a teen could do was easy. I was wrong. There are some teens who are willing to break their backs for the sake of a job. The supervisor I was talking to was only 17, yet he was raking in $2100 a month. Some families don't earn that much. But I could see that his world was consumed by his job. That is something I believe shouldn't happen to a teen. A teen should not have to miss important life experiences for the sake of monetary wealth. If I were to die today, I would rather die with all the memories of time spent with friends and family than with a large salary to my name. To the 3 or 4 people who actually read my blog, please remember this lesson.
