Status Updates From The Asterist: A Novel

This protagonist really annoys me. And if your main character is annoying, it's not a good sign. He really is an asshole. Lazy. Complains constantly. Blames other people for what is really his lack of a good work ethic. I mean, they're not gonna promote you when you goof around and bitch and moan when you're supposed to be working. Note to authors: make characters likeable.
