When you have high standards, hardly anything seems good enough.<\/p>\n
When you have my standards, even the way I breathe sucks.<\/p>\n
My nose sounds like an emergency whistle when I inhale.<\/p>\n
My dishes look like Barney took a big purple dump on the plate.<\/p>\n
My cakes don’t look level enough for me.<\/p>\n
When you have my standards, even compliments come with the back thought of “Do they really mean it?”<\/p>\n
Every time punch is riddled with the questions…..<\/p>\n
What didn’t I accomplish?<\/p>\n
Was that chicken cooked enough?<\/p>\n
Did I clean the kitchen well enough?<\/p>\n
the answer….:<\/p>\n
A RESOUNDING NO!<\/p>\n
What you didn’t you accomplish?<\/p>\n
Try everything you set out for!<\/p>\n
Was that chicken cooked well enough?<\/p>\n
No! That person is going to die and you will be fired.<\/p>\n
Did I clean the kitchen well enough?<\/p>\n
you can’t be clean!<\/p>\n
Your food is abysmal, your plating looks too bland and boring.<\/p>\n
Everything needs to be perfect and spotless!<\/p>\n
You must learn everything new in a quick manner because you are not worth the effort or time!<\/p>\n
There is no room for error, because everyone else is superior and you have to be perfect just to stay afloat!<\/p>\n
I think I may need to lower the bar….<\/p>\n
