edlib Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Didn't go to the store... took a 3 hour walk instead. Better for me in the long run. Put me a bit behind on laundry, however. Gonna have to prioritize just in case I don't finish today. Think I'll take a nap while the next load is in, though. Priorities... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyan Farlander Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Had to work on Saturday - blah. Did my taxes also. I make a lot more money than I did last year, and my refund is waaaaaaaaaay smaller? Screw you, Uncle Sam! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K_Kinnison Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Yea taxes suck this year. I have to use my state return to pay off my fed return, so I can get my Bush bonus bucks. Work sucked also today.. even for a monday. came in and nothing was done. SPent all day picking orders, and even was asked to work overtime (hell ya) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edlib Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Work was mostly casual. Not working the concert tonight... but I helped set up the stage, since it's a really crazy setup. More of the same tomorrow... but I AM working that one. Yippee... Tried to walk after work... but it was really too cold and windy to enjoy it much... so I kept it short. Opening Day at Fenway tomorrow too. Afternoon game to boot. ****ty commute it will be... no doubts in my mind. Game starts at the same time I'll should be reporting to work. Yay. Here we go again for another year. Maybe I'll walk to the subway station tomorrow morning... which will save the hassle of trying to find parking... but will hopelessly complicate getting back home at 11:30 at night. *Sigh* Hooray baseball season...

Rogue15 Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 got my memory in today. installed it on my lunch break. swg is awesome with it. work was lame. have to do inventory crap and it sucks. i'm feeling sleepless tonight. i feel like crap.....my parents annoy me. i burnt my throat out on coffee this morning. that was fun. tomorrow is going to suck or today rather. i get to work alone from 7 on, i can't really complain. more customers to satisfy. or ignore...

edlib Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 Slept for a few hours... then woke up. Heyyyyy... that sucks. At least I don't have to rush into work in the morning. I'm also in a crappy mood again myself... but trying very hard to force myself not to be. It's so counter-productive to having any kind of a good life. And the only person I hurt with it is myself... This was pretty funny... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K_Kinnison Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 I couldn't believe it, worked sucked more today. Two people called in, another only worked a half day. they updated our Inventory system which prevented us from receiving in any product, 2 1/2 hours later they reverted back to the old system, and we had 5 truck loads that needed to be received/put away. Was able to get in more overtime again. (woo!) I certainly HOPE tomorrow is better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edlib Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Work wasn't bad... huge chaotic setup that fills every available inch of the stage... but somehow we made it work because we are awesome. Getting home will be fun: Walked to the station from home today (about 3 1/2 miles...) to avoid the opening day insanity. But getting home will be trickier... unless I feel like walking that distance in the dark. (I've done it before... but I don't know if I feel up to it tonight...) So: If I miss the bus (which runs once an hour) my options are to pay for a cab ride (not likely...) or risk waking someone up to pick me up and give me a ride. I have to think about who owes me favors... Hmmm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue15 Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 last day of work this week for me. i am 1-9....not sure if i close by myself or not. i have been closing by myself the last 2 days so it's not really a big deal. i've been having fun. my hair grew out so i put some hair gel in it to spike it up. might go bowling and or to the range tomorrow. I need to get the lead out. haha think im coming down with a URI.....upper respiratory infection....one of my coworkers has been hacking her head off and well, i'm notorious for being the one to catch a cough. blahhhhhhhhghghg. it's too damn nice out. tomorrow is suposed to be very nice. SWG FTW. i'm having alot of fun with the high level quests. the imperial theme park revamp is so coooooooooooooooool!!!!!!!11111111111111 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K_Kinnison Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 If you remembered I mentioned this girl at work http://www.lucasforums.com/showpost.php?p=2428017&postcount=570 Here's the scoop 2 weeks ago, she and her boyfriend/co-worker broke up. He called in sick for 4 days and then started working 2nd shift, and even started later to avoid her. Monday she went home early because she was sick. Tuesday she called in sick. Today she showed up and I said to her "You still look like crap" An hour later I find out she was fired. The basics of what i think happened is when she was told to talk to the owner (who she has had problems with before) is she gave her a piece of her mind, or went off. Going to get her number from another co-worker (not former BF) and call her, maybe have dinner and let her tell me her side of the story. who knows what might happen later, but at least I won't have to worry about fallout at work anymore. This is red 5 I am going in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogue15 Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 work was boring. theres a cute girl that works at subway that i kinda like, but not sure how old...she doesn't look older than 20 but i am bad at guessing people's ages so she could be 18, i did happen to catch her name though. most days regarding this i hate my life because anyone i take interest is already in a relationship, has kids, falls off the face of the earth before i get a chance to know them, or ends up being a conflict of interest. im ****ing sick of this ****ing loneliness. i'm ****ing tired of every time i make any moves regarding a relationship i get killed off before i even get the chance. and at work well there's that company policy bull**** that i have to abide by so one person is out of the picture, unless she is crazy about me. but then again she said she wished i was her brother. i think i'll just resort to utilizing my darker side and get people that piss me off fired at work. that sounds like fun. start friendships with people and then stab em in the back! there's one guy who EVERYBODY hated so i figured 'what the hell' and tried to be his friend and talk with him, etc...but then he ended up pissing me off cause he was gonna report my friend to ethics for something bad that my friend isn't involved in at all...and another overly-religious woman who pissed me off as well (turned off the radio when i was listening to it on my break) just cuase it was on a rock station. and besides she pisses off everyone in her and my department anyway. i wrote a statement on the guy and turned it in. now, when i want some time alone by myself my mom has to decide to be on the computer next to me til ****ing 3am, like wtfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff****. i'm so tempted to outbid everybody on her ebay stuff. it would be ****ing hilarious. i shold make a fake name and email and make it look like im bidding on something and not pay and see what she does and then be all rude on the email it would be so funny!!!!! ok sometimes i can be mean... i got a good deal at blockbuster tonight....4 dvds for $20. i got 28 weeks later, pathfinder, saw 2, and hot fuzz. god it's 4am time to sleep. maybe i'll set alarm for 8am or something.

edlib Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 Dull, slow day at work... looks to be the last for a while. Did a lot of walking today, at least 4 hours worth (probably more than 12 miles)... but it also looks to be the last for a while as well. Got my first blister of the year, too. Nice... Taking tomorrow off. Long days Sat and Sun, and all of next week. Yippee! I think I'll sleep now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue15 Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 woke up around 11....blah day...played swg a bit, went out bowling with my mom. i bowled a 151 on the first game, and a 130 on the second. went grocery shopping, came home and played more swg...watched hot fuzz. I forgot how hilarious that movie is. i'm in swg right now...having fun with the 'War Terminal' which lets me see bases that alarms have been acted, and my profession is bounty hunter and it so happens that vulnerable bases first terminal to get sliced NEEDS a bounty hunter to do it. so i jammed 2 base's...pretty fun! i wanna do something tomorrow but it'll be raining so that suckssssssssssssssss. maybe i'll go for a drive or more bowling. i dunno. i kinda wish i had to go to work...

Wildstar Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 Looks to me like your bowling is improving, R15. Imagine what you could do if you actually tried to learn the game. Speaking of learning the game, I had a coaching session myself yesterday. I blogged about it, of course... http://tenthboard.net/2008/04/10/first-coaching-session Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogue15 Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 day was weird for me. kind of. woke up at 11am...starting to become a habit, staying up til 330.....o well like people say i need to get a girlfriend. well until that happens i'll do whatever i want, time is nothing. anyway i woke up, played some SWG...took my mom to the doctors office to get her prescription, then went and dropped her off at curves and then i went to go to the bank to pay my car payment. the *******s wouldn't take my bank's atm/debit/credit card. dumb ****s!!111111111 anyways i deicded to go up to walmart to chill and get some cash out so i could pay it cash tomorrow before i go in to work. then i go and pick my mom up and go back to walmart to do stupid shopping. met a new employee cashier she is cool but eh just learned through myspace that shes 17. dammit. o well. i gotta ****ing work most my shift alone tomorrow. that's going to be ****ing fun. maybe i'll just quit and get a life. dropping off the face of the earth sounds like fun. i doubt anybody outside my immediate family would even notice or care. i had too much caffeine...i drank 2 of those amps and a frappacino. im not even tired. i gotta work til 11...and close by myself and by myself again tomorrow and probably the next day. as well as get everyone's ****ing maintenance done at the same time. i love my job.

K_Kinnison Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 I had to work (and wanted to) today. The goal was to move almost 900,000 pounds of bulk butter from the freezers, pull samples, and put it into tempering. First we wanted to show up the certified jerk that did only 500,000 pounds, with more help. Second we had motivation that if we finished the task we didn't have to work tomorrow. My supervisor (who I am good friends with) went into the freezers and started pulling the loads out, while two others ran it out on to the dock. one guy figured out the churn sheets to create the sample instructions and I puleld out the samples. Now... pulling samples is a bit of a game that I have gotten very good at. You have a pallet of 40 cases, each cased weighing in at 69 pounds, and frozen solid. They are stacked a certain pattern and you have to get one specific case out of that pallet based on a random number generated by the USDA. There are 16 pallets per load, and usually need 3 to 4 samples out of each load. All I need to do is know the box number of one case, and I know where all the others are. "On the bottom front middle" for cases 2, 42, 82, etc. "Corner" for 1, 3, 8, 10, 11, 13, 15, 18, 20 In the middle for 5, 15, 25 etc My nickname at work is "Rusty" (my real name is Russell) or affectionately "The butter weasel" We started at 7:30 am, by 11am all loads were pulled, by 12:30 all were sampled. When I left at 2pm all but 2 loads (90,000 pounds) were put away. in short we kicked some MAJOR ass, and the owners, supervisors and workers were quite happy. put in about 10 hours of overtime this week, that is going to show up on my paycheck for next week, which means about an extra $150. Going to get a set of used golf clubs and go get a massage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
