I was denied a border patrol position with the US government due to a mental evaluation and other medical disabilities. I was angry and hated the world. So much so that I posted about it on Reddit... multiple times... I blamed society, this FALSE MERITOCRACY I had been promised....
But then I was informed that I am a fucking moron, a victim, and that pitching about my life on reddit wasn't going to change anything... Turns out I don't even know what the word MERITOCRACY or HARDWORK mean!!
I'm now going to pursue other opportunities, like the rest of the world, and do my best - i will be thankful for what I have, and try and contribute in a positive way. I will take responsibility for who and what I am rather than blame others.
Thanks Reddit ❤️
