The Paper Crane and the Drunk Pirate

"When life gives you lemons, don’t make lemonade. Make life take the lemons back!"

"Would you hire yourself"?

Has anyone been asked this question? What is the correct answer to it?

This is a question I have pondered many a days, and I have come to the answer "no, I would not hire myself".

I'm rude, I hate most things, I hate you in particular (for no reason), I am not very productive at best of times (I rather not do something than do it), I am not very smart (even if I fake being smart pretty well), and I have dought my own abilities.

Past things

When I was younger I tried my hands on drawing (a short lived dream about doing comics), but that only fucking my right hand up (writers hand).

My father always told me to become a politician, but if it weren't for my absolute disdain for almost all political parties's policies/programs, I almost considered it.

I was told to get a degree (decided on Computer Science), but that only led to a big student loan and no degree.

I was told to work in a restaurant, seemed fun, was in reality the worst fucking job ever.

I tried to do graft (working at a company that does fibre installations), got the boot.

Took a course in Java EE/Web Programming, I hated every minute of it. I just don't understand how anyone would like such a job.

I tried my hand at writing (done so for some time, and still do) but I know it is all a pile of shit; every character speaks with the same voice, the dramatic curve has gone out the window, the tempo is all wrong, the disposition is all wrong.

I feel done.

"FML" is probably the best description of my life.
