[Jake E. Lee]

I recently started a new job at a publication company and after a month of training and getting used to, I am still hating my job and my petty and petulent boss. It is my job to crank out English lessons on a timely basis, but fortunately the pressure is minimal. But when I wake up on the wrong side of the bed and start the one hour plus morning commute to work, get my shoe stepped on my a punk (minus an apology of course), get bumped and shoved by a midgety ajumma who must get on the train before the horde of passengers get off, smell the stench of rotting food collecting in recycling bins, dodge cars while I'm already in the middle of the cross walk, get the stares and looks by the miserable natives, the usual, "Hey it's another day in Seoul, why am I letting it get to me?" inner voice gets muted out and a raging violent cruel and malicious voice take over my mind and I envision murdering and maiming and inflincting horrible pain and misery on others. I envision a series of perfect crimes and a slick getaway. I dwell on these things until I snap myself out of it. I know this can't be healthy, but on some days I am unable to forgive and forget. I just want to hurt and be evil. Just my rant for today.
