I've never gone to war but working for ERAC was hell.

-You realise the colleague you've worked with for 6 months is married; you've never had time to get to know anything about him.

Funny thing about that dinner comment. I made plans and three occasions for an 8 pm dinner and I mentioned it in passing during the day at work. Each time the ASSistant manager needed me to stay after closing to talk about something. It really is a cult, they try to take you away from your "old" friends.

Another used to: You avoid wearing a white dress shirt at all costs.

--Before you start to vacuum your car at home, for some reason you start putting your tie in your shirt, even though you are not wearing one

--When Sunday nights around 8pm, you start to get depressed because you know the next morning is going to be hell (I am sure that someone has mentioned that)

-- When you are best friends with your local dry cleaner

-- When you do more work between the hours of 7-9 in the morning than mostof your friends do in their job all day and you envy them.

You give your partner evils if they dont answer the home phone within two rings

your only social interaction is asking people if they have cars

I have been out for over four years and still get worked up over my wife making plans that bleed into Sunday evening after about 4:30 becuase I was conditioned to be at home stressing over the lack of cars for 6:30 the next morning.

You know you work for ERAC when you watch the weather and start get even more depressed because it is going to be really cold or really hot and you can't dress for either condition.

Case in point, Midwest enterprises are experiencing sub zero temperatures. I am pretty sure no one was happy strolling in at 6:30 this morning, knowing that every car has been sitting outside for 2 days in below zero temperatures, and every customer expects nice, toasty cars to drive to work in while you freeze your ass off for minimum wage.

- you preach earning the mega bucks yet you live off of plastic

- you preach earning the mega bucks yet you either live with mommy & daddy or you have roommates to share the rent.

- you preach earning the mega bucks and living the dream although you dont have the american dream of homeownership

- you preach earning the mega bucks although it takes a dual income to support the monthly mortgage for a track home

sometimes reality must really suck.......how does that song go....."welcome to the good life"......lmfao!!!!

Nothing funnier than hearing a guy claim how he makes 80K but shares an APARTMENT with 2 other dudes.
