  • So, I'm bored.

    Bored with online games, bored with writing my game, bored with looking for jobs I don't want to do anyway.

    And tired.

    Tired of living in an apartment, tired of having no money, and definitely tired of living in Wyoming.

    But, in an effort to not be entirely negative;

    I love the way Firefox's spell checker lets me right click to correct a word, I love this freaky granola-type cereal I found at Albertsons even though it's really just a bag of oats, and I love reading your sites and seeing that I'm the laziest ho on here. No, really. If some of you were lazier than me, I'd probably just crawl back into bed for a week to compete.

    I actually had nothing to say, except I have three friends I watch The Wire with. Matt is on season 1, Shane is on season 2, and Wade is on season 4. It's a good thing I like the show. If you haven't seen it, give it a try. But try 2-3 episodes before you make up your mind.

    Edit*
    Oh yeah, here's an example of how selfish I am. I'm not sure if I mean selfish or self-centered. Pick one and run with it.

    A couple weeks after quittign OfficeMax, I was called by one of the ladies in HR and she did an exit interview over the phone with me. I answered as honestly as I could, trying to keep my opinions on how much the place sucked to myself and giving my ideas on why certain things seem not right and how it seems they could be, and I made sure to point out that "maybe there's a reason we do some of that stuff that seems backwards and completely unnecessary, but none of us know the reason. if we did know the reason, I'll be a lot of people would be ok with doing those things, or who knows, someone might think of a better way to do it."

    Honestly, I was pretty damn nice and considering how much I hate that place and everythign they do, I think I gave a lot of helpful advice. Not necessarily anything they should change or implement as much as the way the people in the cube farm see things and why.

    Iit was a 45 minute phone call, and she told me she was writing everything down.

    And the really self-centered part of that?

    She was fired a few weeks ago, and all i can think of is "What if she took some of my ideas to her boss?"

    You know, her boss would have been that worthless wench who told me it was my fault I had to walk out of the training class.
