My Crazy Dream

My Crazy dream

 

I was hired for 2 full time jobs at the same time. The details are fading as I write this but one was a software sales company that dealt with the cover art on the software boxes. They also were some kind of restaurant.

 

The second job was a computer programming job. I really wanted this job.

 

It was really strange because I wanted both jobs and both places wanted me. They also knew about my job with the other companies and they were giving me time to decide.

 

I really wanted the programming job but I told the other company that I didn't know if I could do it because it had been years since I had written code.

 

The job with the software sales turned in to the restaurant. I was in my element. I was cooking and doing prep. All together I have about 9 years experience with restaurant work.

 

Something happened half way through and I just slipped back over the edge. The hallways were full of police and I went after my gun in a different room. I remember smiling a deceitful little smile and saying "I'm gonna kill someone". Everyone that knew me took off, the rest stayed. I ran down the hall laughing maniacally. I got my gun and started killing everybody. I had become some sort of reloading expert. I killed everybody there and went outside.


We were in the city and there was a line of dark skin people running up behind me and singing. They passed me because I was overweight. I could tell that they were disgusted by my obesity. They were part of some kind singing group like a high school choir or something. They were running to a place ahead of me so they could perform. I turned the corner and the street turned in to a scene from mardi gras.

None of that mattered because I had to get to my job at the computer programming place. After I was there for a while I had been talking to my boss and he gave me a few days to decide if I wanted to stay there or go to the other job. 
My fear crept in to every cell in my body as I asked him what language that we programmed in. His reply was that we program in “C”.

I never learned “C” but I didn’t tell him. I decided that I wanted the job but I only had 3 days to learn “C” .

I figured that it wouldn’t be hard since I had programmed for years. The logic would be the same, I just had to learn the syntax.

That’s when I woke up.
