Sweatshop

My first true job out of college was working in corporate sweatshop.  It was a high-end sweatshop.  But still nevertheless, it was a sweatshop.  Senior management of this company though, was very good at masking that aspect of the company from its young, naïve, inexperienced workforce.  Of course, I ended up staying there long past my expiration date.  I needed that experience -- because I did not get everything out of my college experience that I could have.  Anyway, I was mostly unhappy throughout my college experience.  My life up until age 18 really had not prepared me for college.  Also, I don't think I attended a college that was really suited for me.  But again, no crying over the past -- all my experiences made me into what I am today -- and I'm very thankful for that.

Another fast coming up in a few days.

I had to go through a lot the past 20 years to get where I'm at.  It was around 20 years ago that I first experienced the Judaism that has propelled me into the observance that I follow today.
