IT'S ELECTRIFYING!
It would seem that my friends could count on solar eclipses more often than seeing a new post from me, but here it is. I have been working at wal mart for two months. I don't necessarily hate it, but I do get an occasional sharp feeling that I'm never going to escape this hellish job. The feeling is usually quick in passing. A few days ago, I recieved a letter from the electrician's apprentice program, something I tested for about 6 months ago. Basically, it is an opportunity to learn the electrician trade and start out being paid as much, if not more than my current job. I'd also be taking classes free of charge. I consider this to be the lifesaver thrown to me in the ocean of a crappy job. All I have to do, is stand in front of a panel of people, and tell them I have an avid interest in becoming an electrician. Now I'm not one for drama, but this situation actually has me somewhat nervous. I have an opportunity to do something significantly more productive than I am now. I also have an opportunity to do something that requires learning, as opposed to grunt work. On top of that, it may be an opportunity for me to return to the land of the day walkers. Sleeping in the daytime in Bakersfield summer heat is about as fun as....well, there's no hyperbolic simile to match it. It just sucks.
