So, I feel justified in my decision to not go back to Team Corn.
I let it bother me, probably a good deal more than was necessary yesterday, as is apparent in my previous post. .See, I know the world is filled with injustice and disrespect and at times one just has to stomache this and move on. However, this isn't one of those times. I don't have a family to take care of or bills to pay. Yes, a little more money would be nice. I intend to find something else, soon. But right now, my loyalty lies more with upholding my belief system of respecting those around you regardless of cirmcumstance, rather than to the power of the almighty buck.
After explaining my situation to (in chonological order): My mom, Madeline's grandma, Christina, Elgin, Madeline, Jim and Melissa and then hearing what everyone had to say I feel I am making the right decision for myself. Whereas as a few (Christina, Melissa) pushed more towards the character building aspects of doing grunt work, everyone was a sympathetic ear and everyone had something to say that I needed to hear.
I don't know what I'll do with the rest of my summer, job wise. One thing that really stuck out that Melissa said was looking for something to do at Burnsides, even if it is just volunteer. I'll talk to my mom and see if there are any openings down there for hire and if there aren't what I can do to help for free.
I don't feel bitter or resentful. I'm using this as a learning experience. I'm working with this situation rather than fighting against it and crying about how poorly I've been treated.
That's all I have to say on the matter.
