(no subject)
My new job is great. I love it. My office is nice and I get a really big window. The first two days were busy as hell, but yesterday was a real easy day. I ended up getting out 2 hours early because there was just no more work to be done. That was sooooo sweet.
Due to my new job, I am cutting back drastically on my videogaming. This, for certain, is a good thing. I'm actually doing fairly decent so far weaning myself off of them. I've cancelled my subscription to City of Heroes. As much as it pained me to do it, it had to be done. I just can't take the time out of my busy schedule to fight crime. There plenty of other heroes out there with much better costumes anyhow. :-p
With the slow demize of my pixel crack addiction, I have been searching for something to take it's place. I'm thinking all the time that school will take up should be enough, but just in case, I'm also working out again. This time though, I have incentive. I have to. You see, part of my actual work schedule is working out at least 3 days a week. This is a good thing. I really needed to start working out consistently but just didnt have the motivation. Now I have motivation. Employment.
I've also been trying to advance my career in the Guard. I've been trying to get promoted for ages but for one various bullshit reason or another, I've been told 'soon, soon'. Well, I honestly dont care anymore. My enlistment is up in a little over a year and that's when I'll have all the aces. You see, the only time you have the Army by the balls is when it comes time to reenlist. They want your warm body so they'll do almost anything to get it. That's when you start bargaining. What are my terms going to be? Hehehe...
1)The enlistment bonus ($20,000 up front in a lump payment. Up from the current 15k as of October 2005)
2)Rank. E-5/Sgt.
3)MOS School. I want to change jobs. Not yet saying to what job though. That's a secret. ;-)
With these 3 demands met, I will happily soldier on. Now, I need to get back to work.
