Hourly Job Contest

The older brother of a childhood acquaintance

recently sent me a digital message,

via a social networking platform,

in regards to a contest,

(I'm assuming a contest run by a company he works for).

The general idea is that

people with full time "hourly jobs" (as they described it)

send in their videos

displaying the music talents

they can never truly fulfill

being too busy

at their pointless jobs.

I responded along the lines of,

"Hey Pal, thanks for thinking of me for this,

but I already follow my dream full time

and do NOT have a shitty job

and am therefore disqualified from this particular contest"

which felt really good,

but the whole episode made me feel really bad,

in a "The Matrix" sort of way
