Being a Massage Therapist

I don't know how well anyone can relate to this, but I felt that I needed to vent.

I am a massage therapist. I went to school for 2 years for it and I learned a lot.

The problem is my family, now that I'm a professional, they think I like giving them massages 24/7.

Ha! Maybe if you pay me! (Which my dad did the other day! What a schocker! 20 bucks!)

It's not that I don't like doing them, it's that they get tiresome and they really can strain your arms, hands and back.

And now that I have my own table, they want me to do them more!

In school, my teacher Gail even told us not to massage family because they expect too much. I should have listened.

It's one thing if you're in pain, then I want to help because I know what I'm doing, but if you just want to relax, then I need money!
