SO TIRED? SHUT UP

If there is one phrase I'm "tired" of hearing about it's that. Every day on the subway I hear folks bitching about how tired they are. No shit, it's 8 in the morning and you’re going to work. It frustrates me, and I admit, I've said it too but since I've really tried to avoid it.
At work, one of my co-workers is from Brazil. He cannot speak fluent English, yet tries anyway. It is clear that he learned English in New York because he adds the word "fuck" to every sentence. Seriously, I was trying to explain to him what a plate was but he didn't get it until I said a "fucking plate."

Besides fuck, he does know the word tired. (hmmm..wonder why he picked up on this one so quickly) And he repeats it to me over and over again. Amber, you work too much, aren't you tired? Every time I pass him, he comes right up in me ear (yes, he's a close-talker) and he will say one of two things. "I am so fucking tired" or "aren't you so fucking tired amber?" I want to swat him way with a fly squatter like an annoying buzzing mosquito.

After hearing that all day, I come home and find my roommate on the couch, watching TV after getting home from a grueling 6 hour school day of dance therapy classes. (yes, you read that correctly dance therapy) I know its coming.... the sigh followed by those three words. ENOUGH ALREADY. EVERYONE WORKS A LOT. We're Americans and we signed up for this bullshit on our way to the American Dream. (how’s it treating you so far?) cause I'm pretty fucking tired of that too.
