Ah hah.

You ever know you're a failure before everyone else does and then spend the rest of your life waiting for the other shoe to drop?


Splat.

...? Are you okay? Not that I'm in any position to judge, but "failure" wouldn't be the noun that springs to mind when I think of you. *frets*

Dude, you're way too young to call it yet!
Besides, you're a very cool person.

"Remember, George. No man is a failure who has friends!"
As this string of posts proves.
Of course that's beside the point because you're NOT A FAILURE!!!
[hugs hugs hugs]
Saw a white probe today, thought of you.

How tough are you? SO TOUGH!

(PS. I am always, always, here for you)

Oh my god, yes.

And it's one of the major reasons I'm in three hours of intensive therapy per week. Sigh.

*hugs tightly*

This may sound trite, but remember, it's only a job. And I would have to say that bosses really aren't always the best judges of people's potential. Which is so wrong on so many levels, but true.

Here's what I suggest: go freelance. You may say that it is too tough, and it will be difficult at first, especially financially. But you can do it. Become a writer, or an artist, or whatever you want, because I know that once you put your mind to it, you can accomplish it. And don't forget that you have all of your friends ready to back you up at a moment's notice. We're here for you.

Oh, honey. You are not a failure. I think that everyone worries that other people see too much of them- see qualities that aren't there. But it's just that: worry. *big, big hugs*

...*offers hugs* They're all right: bosses and jobs aren't a measure of a person's worth. This might be an indication of a job skill you just don't have, but not-having job skills does not a failure-at-life make.

Sherry might have hit on something there...I don't know, really, I'm not in your head and I'm not one of the closest confidantes, but I remember what you were telling K when we were leaving Michael's: That you got your theater degree instead of doing what was "practical" and now you're spending your time being "practical" instead of doing what you want, except that you don't know what you want. So maybe work on that. I mean...while a certain measure of practicality has to be infused into day-to-day in order to let you keep afloat, I think it would help you to sort out what you *want* to do - in whole or in part - even if you can't immediately enact it/make a career out of it. It might help focus things.

*more hugs*
