A Confession
« on: March 06, 2009, 08:00:40 AM »
I have a confession. 
I *sob* work a desk job...in a...um...corporate enviroment. *sniff*  With...corporate people. *gag*  I have to keep a bit of a facade erected to surive. (I had a spent brass from my 1st buck on my desk for 3 years. Someone took offense and I was issued a FINAL WRITTEN WARNING and told if I brought anything like that on company property again it was automatic termination. That was a few years ago.)

The reason I brought this up is that today I slipped.  I have been slowly but surely exposing those around me to shooting, hunting, and the outdoors in general.  I have taken several "work friends" hunting and fishing to the enjoyment of all.  Today, I got a bit too comfortable and went over the line.  Someone was making fun of potted meat and spam (which I defended vehemently.)  Someone made the comment about not eating meat that sits on a warm shelf, then I brought up...canned venison.  Canned venison is a delicacy.  I love it.  It's the base of the best stew to ever grace a pot.  I was forced *sob* to listen to people down it and make "yuck face" and "gag noises" for an hour.  I thought I'd come on here and post this in the hopes that I would find some like minded individuals for some badly needed moral support.

GO CANNED VENISON (an most meat in general.)!!!
This that I do, I do by my own free will.

Find a real job.

As soon as I find one that lets a man without a college education work a flexible schedule and make more than $110,000 per year a plan to.
This that I do, I do by my own free will.

Ok guys, this thread wasn't supposed to be about career counseling. ;) But if you really want to feel the love, don't go with tractor/trailer sales, become a dispatcher. On that note, I have to agree that canned venison is indeed a delicacy.

You brought up the thought that you had too keep up a facade. Did you ever think that they may also?
I worked in a plastic factory---corporate enviroment---for all of my working life.
Those clowns don't have a clue what they like, they wait for someone too tell them.
Now, being from Texas, there was not a great cry about shooting or hunting except when the arguement came too a head over the proper caliber.
I know what you are saying, hang in there and do what you have to do. Don't let Those folks get you down. One day you can think for yourownself---again.
Blessings
TEXAS, by GOD
