Get A Real Job

I feel the need to address this issue. I did go to law school for a year before realizing that I didnt agree with any of it, but it was there that I was taught what an issue is. An issue is more or less a question. The second step after an issue is to apply a rule. Once the rule is applied it is necessary to apply the analysis and then draw a conclusion. It simple terms or laymans terms...we must locate an issue, apply the rule, make an analysis of applying the rule to the facts and the issue, then come to a conclusion.

Issue - Rule - Analysis - Conclusion

I have been in the tennis industry also known as the "service industry" for long enough now to have heard it all. Over and over again I am asked these infamous words...when are you going to get a real job? This makes me laugh and sad at the same time because my first thought is...is this a fake job? My father did work for 25 years in a 9-5 job in a shirt and tie. He coached all of my sports teams and made a lot of money. Is that a real job? I dont know, but that is what they say is. I have read about billionaires who have never attended a business meeting in anything more than jeans and a t-shirt so is it about the clothes or not? Maybe its the shoes...Anywho, I have been asked this plenty of times and one time it got to me. Well let me rephrase that, it always gets to me. I thought, damn I should get a real job so one time I went on 7 interviews with a major financial company. These people were fat, overpaid, boring, no personality and lame. I tried desperately to gel with these people but I dont think its in my cards. Here we go...The issue is whether or not a tennis pro is a real job. What is the rule? Im not really sure what the rule is for this one and I dont really care. I guess it just comes down to the money game. What I do know is that I love what I do and it is called a passion. People have jobs they hate all the time and do it to conform to society. Maybe one day that will be true for me but I dont think so. So for all those people who say get a real job...well *&^*&%& you!
