I recently suggested to a younger colleague who was hating her job that (perhaps counter-intuitively) rock that hated job as hard as she could. It's hard to give your best to a job that is already sucking you dry, but doing a great job at it gives you more leverage to get the job you want. Be awesome and let your awesome shine!

I'm old enough to remember when this song was new. I was young then, but I listened intently to pop songs to learn about what grown up life was like. At the time I remember thinking, "man, grown up love is tough". Now, it's that line about his mom brings on the tears. It is a heartbreaking thing to comfort your mom when your dad dies. I take that shit seriously now.
