i'm quitting my job tomorrow. i have no desire to spend 12 hours a day, SIX days a week scrambling in a mad panic to keep my clients. at least 4/5 of the job is working your ass off not to be lied to/cheated/stolen from/scammed by other agents. clients have zero respect for their agents and without any regulations or rules (thus no contracts), they have no loyalty. the entire real estate economy runs on corruption. period. blech. i'm so not into it. this week i literally did nothing but work and sleep. up at 7am, in a cab for 40 minutes to an hour and a half, then work with NO BREAKS all day, then back in a cab and home at like 8pm. thoroughly exhausting. super sucky. i did not come to india to live that kind of life ... at least not for the real estate market.
oh and besides, not that it has anything (well, almost nothing) to do with my reasons for quitting, the monthly salary is $200. there will most likely be the occasional big commission payment, but that just ain't enough. it is so not worth it.
we went to the iron maiden show on friday. m brought his assistant and equipment, and we showed up 4 hours early to shoot fans in the parking lot. we were hoping for leather pants, short skirts, ratted hair, skanky metal chicks and total chaos. we were sorely disappointed. it seems that the ONE thing you do not do at a show in the states is the ONLY thing you do here. you wear the band t-shirt. so lame.
2 of my favorite friends here threw a girls night party last night. of course, we all got naked and had a pillow fight. isn't that what girls always do when they get together?
i love this kid.

quitter :)
good luck tomorrow.
so excited that i'll have one friend back during the daytime!
What no pictures of the pillow fight? Sounds WAY more exciting than Ironic Madains.
Oh and by the way...LEAVE your job. You do not need that crap! Why don't you just open your own bar.
kisses! Save some feathers for me..
