Hobnobbing GF
Girlie friend No. 1 is annoying me like a wasp in a glass jar. I am the one who has a respectable career. I am the one who works all hours God sent. I am the one who gets to go to big places, important meetings and dinner dances. I am the one who gets all the stress and the aggro in return. So I am the one who should be meeting interesting and famous people. No Sir! Not me. I do not.
Girlie friend messes about with animals a couple of evenings a week. In a little place unheard of by 99.9999% population of the city she gets to meet up, once a week, a television personality with their animal. The star in question is a very very popular face from a very very very popular very very very very long running serial. The star spends a couple of hours a week with the animal with the girlie friend and other animals. Now GF No. 1 (with another girl from the animal place) has been invited to some party by the star and she is gloating. GF 1 is a mad serial fan like millions of other British fans. She is grinning like a Cheshire cat every time I see her.
I am so jealous! I know I shouldn’t be and truthfully I am really happy for her getting a chance to meet other casts from the serial at the party. Hell I don’t even ever watch the serial. I wouldn’t have even known the star in question if I fell over them but it is the question of pride. I should be the one who knows who is who and what’s going on where! Aren’t I a vain? LOL

Here, Butterfly. You need this.
I could probably ramble on as to why, but it appears you've already come to know and besides, it's past 2 in the morning. I'm not that great at improv writing at this time of day.
I just hope at some point, you find a way to be at peace with the way things are in your life, without comparing them to others.
Also, remember that "respectable" is a matter of perspective. If you don't believe me, watch the movie "Red Eye" if you ever get a chance. There's solid proof that even the so-called lowest of jobs deserves some form of respect.
Meanwhile, it sounds like you could use a vacation. Long-hour jobs, after long periods of time, can really wear you down. Heck, I only work at my job (3rd shift at a convenience store) about 40 hours a week, but even that will kill you after two years with no respectable amount of time off to yourself. So, we're in the middle of summer here. There's gotta be some excuse you can make to take some chill time, eh?
Hope this helps.
