The document discusses frustration with past work experiences. It mentions quitting a first job due to a close-minded atmosphere where the work was just work and nothing special. Fake behaviors are needed in interviews to get a job, but the goal is to find meaningful work with integrity where people are treated as humans rather than commodities.

1. 1. “Crap Shoot - the whole idea about
"professional culture" is a load of crap;
people are still human & act human, for
better or for worse”
2. ” you have to fake an interview, fake
yourself, read the interviewer, get on their
good side somehow someway spark
chemistry… ”
3. ” when people are nice, helpful, its great to
get to know these new people and create
new relationships; its self affirmation
4. ” doing your job right; more self
affirmation ”
5. ” honestly – haha. Just a smile
6. ” I quit my first job. It was not going
anywhere. It was a close minded
atmosphere ”
7. ” I learned a lot from it, but to be honest - I
don’t see it going anywhere I wanted it to
be ”
8. ” I cant blame the country for the level of
stupidity ”
9. ” disorganization and lack of integrity, lack
of common sense, lack of facts ”
10. ” the work was just work. Nothing special.
At the end of the day - I do want something
more ”
• Disappointment from being
treated like a commodity

kowtow to hypocrites
• Empowerment from doing
work well
• Disheartening doing work
not worth doing
• I have to kiss ass to get in
• Why can’t they afford to treat
me like a human being
• How can I be the most
professional person here?
