A License to Kill
I finally got my driver's license today after four tries, the reasons why are varied and uninteresting. But possibly the reason why I got it is because after the test was done the instructor was in an all fire hurry to get to his car and put something on his tounge. Drug addled driving instructors would certainly explain why we have so many deranged maniacs on the road here in Cali.
But anyway by the standards of the state of California, or at least my possibly high instructor, I am qualified to drive a motor vechile alone.
So I got my license and a job in the same week. Not too shabby. Though I'm going to have to hunt down my new boss "John Hodge" (I memorizied his name since I had a feeling I'd have to track him down) to get my uniform because they suddenly decided to change what ride I'd work. He has yet to call me back and tell me said ride or when my orientation is, though apparently I have to go to four of them.
My Dad said when he started working there 27 years ago all he had to fo was fill out an application and they said "Come back tomorrow at 5am." And his "orientation" was a week later when they showed him where first aide was. If only it was that simple nowadays, I feel like a dolphin at Sea World has to jump through less hoops than me. I had to fill out about twenty forms before I could even get checked out by the doctor at the first aide who just looked at me and signed my paper. They also had to ask me if my last name was my maiden name! How many married 18 year olds do the encounter?! Stupid ones at that since I obviously left the "maiden name" line blank!
I just hope its all worth it really, I refuse to let this job go either. I really need the money. I have gas to pay now thatr I drive, animals to feed, I should really go back to college soon unless I want to be at an entry level job all my life...
God, my 19th birthday is less than a month away. How did I suddenly get to be an adult?
