8am work blows

May 27, 2006 19:17

Today I started my first full day of work at "Life O' The Party", it's a company that does party planning, but they specialize in balloon inflation and design (remember back in high school and middle school when youre jewish friends had bar mitzahs, or sweet sixteens? all those balloons had to be set up by a designer. That's who I work for). I really don't blow up the ballons, because I suck at it. I can't tie a freaking balloon! what's up with that! My main job is to take the ready-made centerpieces, arches, and other balloon structures, load them into the full-size van, and deliver them all over the tri-state area. So far I've delivered to Newark, Weehawaken, Midtown Manhattan, Wayne, and Butler. There are some really nice ballrooms in this area! The Weehawaken joint sticks out in my mind, because it's right on the Hudson River, and if you're familiar with the area, it's right next to the dock for the Weehawaken Ferry, so you get a beautiful view of New York.

So I'm a fucking delivery guy. Wonderful! But it's ok, it's good money, and I know the owners of the place through the temple, so it's all good. I'm not getting special treatment or anything like that, but they are nice and pretty laid back. It's an overall nice place to work at, as long as you do what is expected of you. Mark (the owner) even got us lunch today, even though it made my stomach turn. Never eat Popeye's chicken. So bad.

BBQ tomorrow at my place. 5pm is set-up, we should be rollin' by 6ish. Come and bring friends, it should be a good time. If it's anyting like last year, oh man!

I feel like wiffel ball... I'm caling fred

"well that's a fresher... i'm going on break!"
