for the last 7 weeks I have been waiting tables at a high end Flying J in Springville, Ut. I work with some real honeys and make as much as 35% less in tips then they do with the same sells. I can just see the disappointment in the men’s eyes as I walk opposed the hot 19 year old I am working with. While I feel from them do they have to be shitty about it?
So I stand up with my sisters! I will fight the penis led oppression they have suffered for years! I’m fierce! I’m feminist! I’m in your face!

I am woman hear me roar in numbers too big to ignore
and I know too much to go back and pretend,
cause I’ve heard it all before
and I’ve been down there on the floor
and no ones ever going to keep me down again.
Oh, yes I am wise
but it’s wisdom born of pain
yes I paid the price
but look how much I gained,
if I have to … I can do anything!
I am strong (strong) I am invincible (invincible)
I am woman
You can bend but never break me
cause it only serves to make me
more determined to achieve my final goal
and I’ll come back even stronger
Not a novice any longer
cause you’ve deepened the conviction in my soul
Oh, yes I am wise
but it’s wisdom born of pain
Oh, yes I’ve paid the price
but look how much I gained
If I have to
I can do anything
I am strong (strong) I am invincible (invincible)
I am Woman
I am woman watch me grow
See me standing toe to toe,
as i spread my loving arms across the land,
but I’m still an embryo
with a long, long way to go
until i make my brother understand
Oh, yes I am wise
but it’s wisdom born of pain-
Oh, yes I’ve paid the price
but look how much I gained
If I have to
I can do anything
I am strong (strong) I am invincible (invincible)
I am woman
I am Woman
I am Woman
I am Woman,
I am invincible
I am Woman
You really are a whiny bee-yotch sometimes, boy!! Grow a pair, why don’t yah? (hahahahahaha!)
My ex was a CNA. If you have the willpower, there is an unlimited amount of work out there for CNA’s, but it’s not easy and certainly not glamorous.
Best of luck - and I’m glad you’re still eating!
