PR? What the heck is that?

I don't understand a bit about this PR thing. My two blogs which i believe are lot better than this blog remained at ZERO PR while this blog which i created solely for my personal use -where i could freely pour out my emotions, a no-holds barred kind of a thing, but i wasn't able to maintain and never had time to update since March surprisingly has a PR2! Can you believe that? Now, tell me what a PR is, because i don't think it is about quality of posts and traffic and all these BS because these are non-existent in this blog. If a blog has a PR, it doesn't mean it has quality. Hello! Are you kidding me?

No time for self-pity .....

I have to admit that sometimes i feel sorry for myself when i am at work. I feel that i got the lowest ranking position in my job and i could not help but compare what i am doing now with what i used to do while working in a government agency in the Philippines. Heck, i never did this job before because we got someone who does this job for me. But i also realize that "hey, you are not in the Philippines anymore! You are now here in the US, earning dollars, no matter what lowly job you got!" Which is true! I got a masters degree from a prestigious university in Australia but did that help me? Nope! They did not even ask me about that when i applied for the job because they just need a high school graduate, anyway. My job is a no-brainer job, believe me! Anybody even without an education can do it as long as he/she can read and write and count as well. But I admit, i cannot afford to lose this job right now, even if i know fully well, that this is just a temporary job and i can lose it anytime. Who has job security these days, anyway? Even a President can be ousted if he screws up in his job! Who am i to complain?
