Smile! :(

I just got back from a busy day at work today and for some reason I just felt like posting up a blog and posting up the rest of my blogs that I've written previously on Microsoft Word but never got the chance or remember to post up. I'm so tired right now and I feel like my body's giving up. I work at a restaurant and my boss says I have to smile all of the time, no matter how miserable I am. I feel like I have to put on a face the whole time to get through the night shift. And because I do it so often it becomes natural for me now to smile without thinking about it even though I do not wish to smile.


I can compare this to the woman who obtains a mask that is not hers and uses it to scare away her daughter-in-law in order to keep her from running away from her. As she uses someone else's mask the mask eventually gets stuck on the woman's face and when she attempts to take it off, her skin rips off also. I feel like my smile in plastered on my face and I cannot take it off. I put on a face in order to get good tips and make money. I feel like everyone puts on a mask everyday whether they are going to work, going to school, or even hanging out with their friends. It is inevitable for us to put a different face on in order to please someone or deal with a situation, just like how I put on one today.
