This has been driving me nuts:

Does Unfocused's avatar work for you?
 
I just got done having another amazing night with friends I truly missed. Beer pong + winning = awesome.

Anyway, they started talking about how they need jobs for the summer, and I realized I need a new one as well. I've worked at American Eagle since last September, but they don't give me enough hours by far. They started talking about working in a steel mill which isn't bad at all, but it would consist of me working completely different shifts than I am used to. I'd have to actually work a full time job compared to my two days a week at 4 hours. Oh, did I mention I get two days a week and sometimes maybe 3-4, and also, sometimes at 3.5 hours instead? It really is a shitty job, and I continue to work there only for the 40% discount I get on their overpriced clothes.

Anywho, I've decided I'm going to probably apply for that mill job and maybe other such physical jobs. Even though I am completely used to retail, I need a change. I've worked retail the past 2.5 years, and it is nothing but a nuisance anymore. Everyone knows the regular bull shit they have to put up with in retail, especially in clothing. I've had to push and push sales/credit cards/other useless items on the customer. No one wants that nor do they care to be arsed about it at least 3-4 times while they are in the store for maybe 10 minutes.

Bah!

Also, if you couldn't tell, I am rather intoxicated. Ahh, what a good night! :D

I just silently raged and felt my heartbeat increase tenfold.

This could be horrific if combined with alcohol.
 
So for the last month or something I've had this strange black lump under my skin on my chest. I had just assumed that is was just like a fatty corpuscle or growth, but then in the last few days it started scabbing over and whatnot. Now, I have a bad habit with picking scabs, so the last few nights while I've been reading I've been picking at it.

So last night while I was reading Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell and fiddling with the scab, I realized I could no longer feel the roughness of the scab, only a smooth bump. I continue reading while rubbing the bump, when I feel the scab come off, and it feels quite large. Intrigued, I hold it up to my light, and do you know what I see?


A rock


I had a ****ing rock under my skin


And I have no clue how it got there


And I'm thinking it's some form of kidney stone-like object


D:
 
Well at least they can't track you anymore Emporius.
 
K, i'ts 2:45 AM, and i'm about 90% sure i'm not going to get this paper done by tomorrow. I'm wondering if I should just try and ask for an extension for tomorrow, since I didn't get my draft back till today (while the rest of the class got theres back a good week ago), or just press on through the night and get what little done I can.

Thoughts?

EDIT: **** this, i'm going to sleep.
 
I forgot to shave half of my mustache this morning. I was on the loo when I noticed it in the mirror. At first I lold, but then I shaved it dry, and I was all :eek:
 
I overcharged my bank account by seven dollars because I spend 45 bucks on gas when the atm said I had 130 dollars. Then I checked my bank account online and it showed that after I checked the atm, it took out 3 charges that were made four days ago. So now my bank charged me 32 dollars, and the 80 dollar check i put in is almost gone :(


****ing 30 bucks.
 
i can't stand my job. i went back to telemarketing because that's the only place that would hire me lol. It's not a hard job, you just sit in a chair and annoy people all day. Only problem is it's extremely repetitive and after about 2 hours it starts getting to me. I get annoyed easily and by the end of my shift (only 4.5 hours but it feels like 4.5 years) i'm a wreck.

I work 3 days in a row, thursday and friday 5-930 and saturday 9-5. I don't know if I can handle it any longer but i need money since i went bankrupt last week lol. I'll stick it through for as long as I can but in the mean time, i'm going to go on an applying spree and apply at ever single store in my city in hopes of getting away from that hell hole.

I've just walked from a Telemarketin job after 9 hours. It was my first time doing it, but it made me feel ill just picking up the phone. At least they're going to pay more for those 9 hours, I really need the money :/

yea it's a horrible job. i have to work 5-930 tonight then 9-5 saturday which means i have to get up at 7 am on saturday because i have to bus all the way downtown (parking is like 10 bucks, **** that and gas is liek a million dollars per liter) lol, oh well at least im getting some money that i so desperately need :D
 
This job was 9 to 5 Monday to Friday, so you'll probably be able to sympathise with the vertigo I felt at the beginning of my second day. Especially as most of my nights recently have ended at around 6am :p
 
My bank pisses me off by sending me credit cards and other junk overy other week.

After I told you to watch out for that? :LOL:

I did some telemarketing when I was a teenager. I ****ing hated that job. we got a commission if we got a lot of people to take the bait, otherwise we just got an hourly wage.

I only got like 1 or 2 people to take the bait, so after a few days I realized that it was pointless to try, and began faking conversations and calling friends up until I eventually couldn't stand it anymore.


It's actually an easy job, you should try to tolerate it. Sitting in a chair all day getting paid is how you should look at it. Who cares what happens on the phone.

yea exactly, im just not even going to try and get sales, if they fire me for low sales (even tho we call for donations for local charities, they still call them sales lol wtf) i wouldn't even care because i've made a decent amount of money so far so it should last me a while until i find myself a new job.

I just got back from 6th grade camp (Again--it's a thing my school system does. All of the 6th graders go out to a camp and they invite two to three high schools to be counselors, along with actual camp staff, for three days.) and... wow.

It was seriously one of the best times ever.

The group was great. There were two kids, out of eight, that got out of hand a few times and needed a few push-ups (;)) but overall they were really cool. Oh man. It was just really, really awesome.

They're hiring for summer camp and I'm seriously considering it. The only thing I'm not sure if I could handle is the commitment. It's a 24/7 deal. You live at the camp for two months. However, it's like a huge family and... just... awesome.

I'm sore, I'm tired, I'm sun burnt, and I'm entirely, in every way, exhausted. But I'd go tomorrow to do it again.

Sounds like an awesome opportunity, you should go for it!
 
Well it would be $1600 directly into my pocket since there's no cost to you if you work there. The pay seems low ($200 a month) but the housing is free and there are no bills of any sort. However, two months secluded in a camp sounds like it'd get old fast. But then again, it doesn't. It'll be great fun, I'm sure of it. But not seeing my friends and little or no (I'm not sure) internet access would be a killer. But I have an overall good feeling about it. I'll have to sleep on it.
