SSDD

Well i finally get a day off. it's about time. yesterday wasn't so bad, it was a pretty easy day

Not much new on the home front, it looks like it will be a really nice day today so i might just have to break out the grill for dinner.

Can't stand being on call.

Well it was yet another night with no sleep. damn wally world. I didn't get home until nine this morning, got a measly 4 hours sleep and then this evening i was grocery shopping and got called out again. I drive 45 minutes to the store and the damn problem is already fixed. CHARGE!!! its like a minimum 6 hour charge at somewhere in the $200/hr range.

So anyway after that store i have to go to another and stayed till 2am, had to get back up at 6 to go pick up a part and fix the crap. i'm just winding down and falling asleep at 4 and they call me and want me to fix it right away. bastards. I'll get there when i get there. i'm going back to sleep and turning my phone off.

Had a job interview at a software company yesterday, more like just filling out an application and taking some weird tests. but maybe they'll actually call me back for a real interview.. wish me luck!

The boss took me out to lunch today for my hard work the past couple days and i ordered the most expensive thing on the menu. some filet mignon and shrimp. my body was so screwed up from work for the past couple days that i couldn't even eat it. oh well, not my money.

hopefully tomorrow turns out a little better.

I hate work

I was just getting starting to fall asleep last night when I got a call that for some stupid reason just had to be run right away. Damned scanner scales showing the wrong weight on one display and the correct one on the other. I was so mad for most of the night. I thought the store wouldn't even be using them yet as the produce and other sections that might need them don't open for a couple more days(under construction). then just as i'm finishing the last one 9 hours later i hear that somebody tried to buy a pound of coffee beans and it rang up like $90. damn that's some expensive coffee. All I could do then was laugh and try not to fall asleep on the hour drive home. so much fun being up for 26 hours straight.
