You are  

You're the exception to the rule and you know it. Braggerts don't open their yaps if they're just average.

the only thing about me that might be above average is my unwillingness to except a s**t job for s**t pay. I never stopped trying when I could've just phoned it in and taken the easy way out. I left EMS out of boredom. I guess I lack sympathy because I don't understand the lazy mentality. I view the union as sitting on your a** and letting some hack negotiate for you.
You want it, go get it. If you want to phone it in then you do you but stop crying about trash pay and employers.
