"My warning meant nothing, you're dancing in quicksand. Why don't you watch where you're wandering, why don't you watch where you're stumbling, you're wading knee deep, but go ahead, and you may never come back again."
This applies to so many people that I regretfully know. People constantly pushing their boundaries, testing your limitations with no thought about the consequences that they would endure because of it.
I constantly think about those lyrics while working. I work at a gas station, and when you're a fuckin' jockey at a convenient store, you see the dumbest of the dumb. It's amazing how much humanity DOES push their boundaries. The thing is, EVERYONE needs to buy gas, so I get to witness EVERYONE in their stupidity.
With those lyrics going through my head while I'm working, it makes me chuckle to myself, because these people have no idea exactly how much they really are pushing their boundaries. You all might be a little confused on how this actually applies, but for those of you who have had a "customer service" job should know what I'm talking about.
These people think that because you're sitting behind a cash register, that you have an obligation to be nice to them no matter what type of shit they throw at you. Well, for most people, that's true... but these people have never encountered someone that just doesn't care one way or another about their stupid, piddly fuckin' attitudes that they so blindly throw at me.
