The Life of a Twenty-Something...growing up.
This blog will take you through my post-collegiate life, as I embark upon a new career, and face different and often difficult challenges of becoming a young, independent, Pakistani woman in the United States.
It will chronicle my (hopefully short time) moving back home, how I am going to adjust to it after living away for four years....
this should be interesting.
why i think my mom is my most difficult client ever
so, i’m getting into this whole business a little bit, and i think I like it, and I’m learning that what someone told me earlier is so true—-that people you thought would buy from you quickly don’t, and that people you would never think would do business with you, do.
that being said, i am so annoyed at my mom right now. we talked about her policy a month ago! A MONTH! and now, after the policy has been printed and all we’re awaiting is payment and her signature, she raises all these annoying questions and problems. i just cannot believe her for this. this is just ludacris. i mean, the most insulting part is that she will NEVER take what i say for the truth, she always asks other people for their opinions. i cannot believe her. why does she need to get my brother or sister’s opinion? they are no expert, i am the expert. i know what I’m doing. they don’t get life insurance, they don’t get the investment aspect of it. they just don’t get it and its frustrating as hell that she feels the need to ask them.
and then, she goes back on her word about it, she says “I will do this tomorrow” and she doesn’t. I just do not get her at all. She is ridiculously painful. I am so annoyed with the way she treats me. she keeps saying “I need to ask so and so” and she doesn’t do it in a timely manner.
she tries to say it’s “real world” experience….but in the real world, if your accountant (someone you trust) suggests you invest $2,500 in A&B Charity for a guaranteed amazing tax break, you don’t ask your daughter or son or vet and ask their opinion—YOU DO IT BECAUSE YOU TRUST THEM!!! They are your accountant, your son or daugther or your vet do not know what the hell they are talking about, your freaking accountant does, so you listen to them.
Anyway, that’s all I have to say. I am just so ridiculously annoyed at her for behaving this way with me.
Other than that…my job has been a huge challenge. I really, really think it has been. It’s been more challenging than what I was initially told..but you know what, I think it’s what makes it what it is.
…and one more thing, I am more in love than I ever thought was possible. <3 thank you!
