So it's been awhile since I wrote something (though technically that isn't entirely true), so I guess I'll play a little catch up. Which comes down to this, I got fired from King Kullen, techincally I haven't worked since Jan 31st but I officially heard the words "not hiring you back" on like march 3rd or something. It was all a bunch of bullshit, I got suspended for accidentally charging someone $3.99 for a sandwich that was suppose to cost them $4.99. So it came out to be a dollar that I got fired for. I told them it was a mistake and that I was hurrying trying to help the line of customers that was there, the prices had recently gone up at work and I was just double checking to see how much the sandwiches were, but they didn't want to hear it...they said that I should have known the price of a sandwich and that I've been there long enough that I shouldn't have to ask. It got dragged on for the entire month of February and then sometime in March I got a call from the union saying "unfortunately King Kullen isn't taking you back" the bastards at King Kullen didn't even have the nerve to call me up themselves and I still haven't (not that I'm expecting to) recieved anything saying that I am fired, chances are they were persistant on firing me because I made time and a half on sundays and was paid more than most of the other newer part-timers there..so they saved money if they got rid of me. So I've been at home for about a month and a half now, and it's starting to get really boring, the first couple of days was cool because I could sleep in and what not, but now it's boring. I applied to Nassau county parks and I'll know if I'll get a job with them by April hopefully, that'll be a seasonal but long lasting job hopefully, and I get to work with Joe and it pays more. So overall it's better than King Kulllen to some extent. I also applied to Gamestop, who aren't hiring at the moment, but I have two people I know there who will push my application when they do start hiring, so hopefully I can get a job through there. I'd REALLY like that, it wouldn't pay as much as the parks though, but for A.C. and a cool ass job like working in a game store, I think I wouldn't mind it at all. So I'm hoping one of those will come through for me.
Although the main group of people I usually go with to Anime Boston aren't going this year, I still am. I'm really excited about it! I've been trying to fix up my Black Mage costume, based on the Final Fantasy look, I couldn't find a jacket and I wasn't a fan of the straight blue "snuggie" look lol, so I went a little variant of both, I couldn't find striped pants like I needed, I have some that work alright, but I really wish I could have the big striped pirate pants, but they don't really have anything I liked. Still I can't wait, Anime Boston definitely is one of my favorite cons, Otakon kinda is meh, and we don't go to I-con anymore, because it sucks hardcore. Anime Next was pretty cool though mhm.
That's pretty much it for now.
