So, I have had a job for a couple of months. At night I stock shelves and face at a Safeway, and it isn't bad work. I burn lots of calories, and I am gaining strength all over.
I even got to keep my long hair, which is lucky in my opinion. Same goes for ipod use, and this can be gotten away with only because we are night crew. It's not like we hide these things, they are just understood. Which has made training and integration much easier.
The pay is poor right now, but we are still paying rent.
Speaking of we, there has been a shake up at home. Things have shifted, and I believe that they will work out for the best. I wasn't of this opinion at first, but time and sleep have brought a better perspective of the situation. What ever that means, this all sounds like drivel as I read it back over, but that never stopped me before!
All of this leads to faceBook, which I will refer to simply as the book. I am now on it, after years of resistance to joining it and other such type sites. I had a myspace long ago, and it is now defunct, as it should be. Some times, feeling morbid, I check back on it, and my eyes glaze over. This may be due to the mildew, I haven't cleaned it in so long.
I am under immense pressure to play Rise of Nations, much to my surprise and panic. "No, please no!" I say forcefully, in a quite, meek voice.
That game is too much like work to me now, and my motivation is simply nonexistent. Should I really can that the Inca are sacking Rome? Even if I happen to be playing the Inca, the answer seems to be no. Sorry Derek.
If I don't get some sort of pay raise soon, I will need to find a second job, preferably close by. The extra money would be great, but I wonder where I would find such work.
This is all for now, you will see me on the book, as I check it way too much.
