So in my hunt for a summer job I found one where you can be a summer counsellor in France. AND I don't have to know any French. English is encouraged. Apparently it's some sort of English Immersion camps parents send their little French brats too. Frankly, I'm not complaining because that means I get to go to France, provided I'm hired of course ( Read more... )

Happy Thanksgiving/Turkey Day. May the food be bountiful ( Read more... )

I've been handed a letter from work inviting me to their Annual Dinner, which is completely bizarre if not flattering in itself ( Read more... )

So I wasn't exactly finished writing the last time I posted, but I was rushed off the computer and out the door because my mom wanted to leave early so we could go to church. I really don't know why I go, I've seem to come to the point where I wonder the whole point of it all is. But that's another story ( Read more... )

It's eeriely quiet at the office. More so than normal on a Friday. I'm almost afraid something is going to hack at me with an axe or something.

You: Do you have a homework question I can help you with?
Guest (Customer): yeah.
Guest (Customer): would you like me to tell you what it says
You: That would be nice, or else I can't help you

Don't I get the brightest crayons in the box to help?

Guest (Customer): 225
You: 229-224 isn't 225
Guest (Customer): yes
You: no it's not

I really wish I could have *headdesk*-ed at that moment.
I don't know why they choose to argue with me.

Somehow I don't think 5+ straight hours of work without break is legal somewhere. At least not here. I do myself in when I sit down tutor those kids. Still, no break is not good.

A person needs to pee.
