Right now in these difficult times where people are losing their jobs because of this damn pandemic, I wish I did not have a job. I work at this casual fast food place and I hate it ever since I began working there since last August. I have not been to work since mid March because my hours were cut to 0 but this week I am being brought back. I am college student and I feel so out of place there. In the beginning of March, I got accepted into my college’s honors program. Last week, I won a $1,200 scholarship from my program department. I am going to receive even more money from the honors program to cover my tuition for the upcoming school year.

I know this is the wrong mentality, but I think I am too good for my job. Going to work there feels so demoralizing. I am having a lot trouble when it comes finding a remote internship and it looks like I have to be stuck there for the foreseeable future. I just want to quit out of anger. After I got into the honors program, I began to take the job less seriously. Obviously I am not going to make mistakes on purpose but if they happen I don’t care. I am so much better than my coworkers there. Its full of people that either dropped out of high school or decided not to go to college after graduation. It is very demoralizing the thought of having to return to the place I hate the most.
