Paperwork is my enemy, and since this is a very true statement I have decided that I will never have a desk job. Who processes all this random paperwork anyway? Do I know them? I hope not, because they are my sworn enemies. Everytime I fill out an essential piece of paperwork it somehow gets lost in the masses. For instance, paperwork such as fafsa, school loans, or bills. I even call for professional help, because I have a serious inadequacy when it comes to paperwork, I somehow can't get a hold of the people that can help me. Even if I do everything right, someone eventually calls me from some other state and says, "Do you remember that important paperwork you sent to us two months ago?"
"No" (of course not!)
Anyway, the only way I can figure as to why I suck so much is that the people processing my paperwork hate their job as much as I would. So, because they hate it, they mess up things out of spite. Yes...that must be it. When all else fails, blame the unknown guy. : ). It's a lot like Star Trek. Really, it is just like Star Trek. The poor new guy that shows up always dies, nobody knows the new guy is so they don't care if he dies. I know that this is sad, but I'm trying to make a point. If I blame the unknown person, nobody cares. But if I were to blame, let's say, your aunt you might be a bit offended.
Anyway, all this is to say that we all live in a world of paperwork. Some people spend their whole lives trying to escape paperwork, people like the homeless for instance...they really don't have to be homeless they just don't want to have to sign their name on any more pieces of paper. And I don't blame them! Homelessness was once an option, but now I'm married. I love being married, I think that doing paperwork is its only downside.
So I just have to be content with sucking at it.
