Who wants status? Seriously, everyone...

Status; it's the imaginary state that everyone tries to achieve. It means a lot of things, recognition, honor and prestige; something you can be proud of. How people see status differs by their values.

My family; they see status in hardworking people. They don't look at where people work, or how much they earn. They value someone who is hardworking and honest. My parents are honest people, and they raised me to be honest and hardworking. They don't like people who are lazy and false.

Most of my friends play soccer, and so do I. The ones that play good get the most respect and everyone want to get along with them. They also look if a person can get along with the rest of a group. If he pisses everyone off, nobody likes him. I feel pretty confortable with my friends as I get along with everyone. My friends mostly value personality, how people get along. I also value personality. I think it is important what is inside people.

We should all sit down and let the others do our jobs!

Well, when I was growing up, my parents were building a house(in Poland). It's finished now, but they put a lot of work into it. I don't really remember what was my age then. I was helping with the little chores; bring this- & bring that. The point is; I know what working means.

As a child, I had this thought that working will bring money. So I was excited about working for money. I didn't even think about the job's difficulty. The pay, that's what counted. I believed that I would spent it on whatever I wanted.

Too bad I was wrong. Work, comes with many responsibilities and commitments. That's what I was always told. "Once you start working, You'll see what it's like." The adults never talked how they feel about their work. They never said anything good about it; they never said anything bad about it. So I think it was fine.
