As opposed to work, bitch! (Ha ha. I kill me) So the new girl @ work…I think I will call her…Lacey. I…just don’t know about this girl. She’s in her late 20s but has the maturity of a 19 year old. Seriously. It’ll be (gloriously) dead quiet in our work area and all of a [...]
» Read the rest of this entry ...So, I had my lunch job interview on Friday. I think it went well. This was my first lunch interview and even though it was fast casual Japanese food it was still pretty awkward. She ordered hers with no rice and with water to drink; I ordered mine with fried rice and diet soda. So [...]

» Read the rest of this entry ...(Alternate Title: Is it February yet?) So, I had a first interview for the out of the blue job I got the call about two weeks ago… And a second interview yesterday. And now I’m sort of patiently waiting for a call or an email or a carrier pigeon or a fax or a smoke [...]
» Read the rest of this entry ...OMG, I have a job interview tomorrow @ 2 PM. I am SO SO SO excited. I keep thinking of that “I hope I get it” song from (I think) “A Chorus Line”. OMG OMG OMG I want this job so bad. Honestly, it’s not even that I want this particular job, it’s that I [...]

Not because I care if my own paycheck is +/- 2.0% but because they’re talking about continuing this credit for two months. Two months. Not an entire quarter??? This is going [...]
» Read the rest of this entry ...It’s Sunday afternoon, isn’t it? Dammit. Can I have more time off please? Can I perhaps trick Gene into letting me be a stay at home dog owner? This past week off was really lovely (even though in my heart of hearts I would rather have been in Las Vegas, dammit) and I am so [...]

I wonder if I can talk Gene into making a return trip to Trader Joes on Saturday after we drop the dogs at the [...]
» Read the rest of this entry ...Remember a couple years ago when I wrote about the song I wrote that went (basically) “I don’t want to go to work today, I want to sit on my ass and play, I don’t want to go to work today, ’cause yesterday was pay day and it’s all downhill from there! Hey!” (No, it’s [...]
» Read the rest of this entry ...So, I passed my Incredibly Hard Payroll test (did I tell you? It was incredibly hard). And now…ummm… I kinda don’t want to do payroll anymore.
