I can tell that i wont last long at my job

see...i have a good memory...sometimes

 

The trick to having fun at work is not to work with food. Or in a uniform. Or a nametag.

Although I had to wear a button and talk to geriatrics at my last job.

 

I quit my last job after a week.

Then again it was a shitty job to begin with.

I'd rather wash dishes in the back where no one bugs me, than have to deal with asshole customers on the phone who aren't getting their pizzas on time because the dickhead guy you work with is having a bad day...

They'll probably give you better hours after you've been there a while.

They overworked me while I was there too.. Yet the other guys came in very infrequently...

Just be glad you've got some money for the time being Pauly.

 

awesome sig richie!

 

I have never seen Rocko's Modern Life.. or.. is it modern world?

See. Never seen it . ahahha


I grew up with arial TV

But my best friend had one of those giant fuckin old mother satellites..the huge black things.. AHah

we used to watch Arnold's World and Angry Beavers and Clarissa Explains it All.

And Catdog. ahhaa.

 

all good stuff indeed
thank you meli
and yeah pauly
when i first worked at the grocery store
they worked me just about every day
i mean, i was new, i guess that was their motto or something
but after a while it got really "laid back"
and i had a comfortable schedule for a long time
and i could even work with them for when i had to study for a test
but then they just started workin' me less and less
so i was like " fuck this, i'm not cleanin' this nasty ass bathroom or moppin' this dumb ass store tonight if i'm not gonna get much out of it"
so i quit

 

you need a move, paul.... do you want to work at a restaurant for the rest of your life?

steve miller went out to san francisco with 5 dollars, and ended up spending that at a grateful dead concert his first nite there. obviously things are more expensive now, but obviously cleaning dishes isn't going to get you any closer to what you want to do.

 

naw, this is only gonna last till the end of may. its actually not to bad once ya get the hang of it...just gets overwhelming at times, and i think it will be more worth while to have this job instead of trying to go out on my own with no money at all...im not meant to go out on my own, maybe with a group of people, but i cant make it alone

today was alot better, but busy. which was good, cause now i know i can take care of washin on my own if i need to. i make a game outta it

 

awesome idea about the games, paulie.


i've been giving this whole thing a hell of a lot of thought... if you dont mind me interrupting your thread, haha. pretty much everybody is telling me to find a real job this summer and save some money, but i just have absolutely no interest in doing things like that. life is too short to sell yourself out, even for a little while, in my opinion.. i would just be fricken miserable. so, against my parents' wishes , i'm gonna head out to probably minneapolis first and live out of my bronco, and make money busking in the district where the business people work and try to find nightly or weekly gigs there, and if nothing comes out of that i'm gonna head out west.... apart from jenessa, who doesnt want to eave this place right now, there are no other close (distance-wise) people i'd wanna go with, so i'll be by myself, probably.... i think it will be pretty exciting.


i gave college a long, hard thought.... the only thing thatreally sounds pleasing about college is that i won't have to think or really make any choices for myself, as there will be people telling me what to do (like with high school, you have classes to go to, etc). that sounds nice, but obviously i'm not going to develop anymore as a person if i dont take charge of my own life.


golly, i'm rambling now, sorry.


...just dont get dragged into the system, paulie.

 

perhaps your right about the whole "wasting my life" working in a job that isnt glamourous, but the way i see it is that there is no way that im gonna be allowed to take the car out anytime soon, and i've alread feel like i've wasted the past 4 or so years of my life, so with me working, then i at least am doing something and earning a little money in the bank while i waste my life.

also, since i wouldnt make as much money getting gigs around town in boise, with this money that im earning, i can maybe use it someday to go roadtripping or buying music equipment that could help me out down the road.

I dont see my situation as a bad thing right now, even though i most likely am wasting my life for awhile, i see it as something to do until the right time to do something worthwhile...which hopefully will happen this summer.



another thing, in the past few months, i've kind of gone over my music ability and singing, and i feel that i need to spend the next few years of my life concentrating a whole lot more on it...which is why im going to college, in a town that i feel comfertable in. i dont care if i get a recording studio or not, but im thinking that if im in the right place, inspiration will come to me, and i'll become a much better musician/songwriter with time. once im done with college, i will definitly focus all my time on music

if i happen to find something i can do with my music before i finish college, then i'll drop out and focus on that...just right now, i need a place to chill, meet some really good friends and make music just for enjoyment. since my parents are willing to pay for my apartment and college, im gonna take there money and use it for education that may come in handy down the road


phew

 

Work sucks, but you can always be mentally elsewhere. And remember, don't work too hard, you really don't usually get anything more than from doing the bare minimum for not getting fired.

 

I can't imagine myself working somewhere right now, but I applied for a job at dairy queen. I just really don't want to cut my hair.

And dude, horace, your sig is awesome. Rocko's Modern Life was the most amazing show ever.

 

well shit, if my parents were paying for all that, then i'd probably change my mind on a few things.

but i was stupid and spent most of my savings last summer... meh.

 

it happens...im not good with saving money either. i'll probably end up spending it all on one thing

 

why can't you understand them

 

I work in Telemarketing which pays well (easy peasy money too)
I'm also going to work at a shooting range for two weeks in the summer which should net me £700 (1200 dollars)

 

that's why im sort of worried about getting a job
