I Should Update with Something More than Twitterings
So yeah... almost a month into the new job... It's alright I guess - I mean the pay's good, there isn't much to do so I get to play around online... seriously, I delay my own deadlines and do only one article a day just to have something to do the next day, because if I really wanted to I could plough through these things like nobody's business.
I don't like the people too much... three of them are women, older than me, not in the same age group, just not my type and omg can they be so fucking condescending. I mean sure, the magazine's for kids and two of them have their own kids, but omg, can you not talk to me like you'd talk to a 10-year old?
This is why sometimes I cant stand working with other women... especially the shallow materialistic type women. And can you be any vaguer in telling me what you want me to write on when I ask you specifically what you want to do? I'm only the writer, I cant read your mind so dont get pissy with me when you throw some generic thing at me and I'm left to guess.
Strange that the only one I kinda-sorta maybe get along a little bit with is the designer - a guy. I dont know... maybe I just work better with guys. At least he's a little more specific when we talk ideas... like he'll give me a mental visual and some words to focus on which - some people dont realize - can be a big help when it comes to writing the tone of the text.
To be honest, I don't have friends there. I usually go out and have lunch on my own. That stint at Eternity, as hectic as it was and as incompetent as the ed was, at least I had friends there. We could talk about -something- at least... I can't talk to anyone here cos we just literally have nothing to talk about!
Ah well...
