I'm going to go insane.
It's been 2 weeks so far, and I still have no job. I was fired for some bullshit that my manager never fixed. At work they do this thing for attendance. 12 points and you're out. Each absence is a point. If you're late <2 hours it's .5 points. Late 2-6 hours (I think) is .75 points. And if you no call/no show it's 2 points. So I was at 12.5/12 points somehow and my manager was supposed to go ahead and fix that for me. HR went through and looked at everyone's current points and decided it would be a great idea to fire me. So when my manager was like "Nick, you're fired" I called bullshit. Fought with him for like 20 minutes, HR for another 30. All to no avail. Don't understand.
I've been applying for pretty much anything I can find that I know I would not immediately quit. No fast food places. I'm hoping that either Hot Topic or this sheet metal welding job call me back tomorrow.
Also, last night a lamp that was hanging over my couch fell and cracked me on the head. It hurt a lot and I got a little dizzy. Started bleeding all over the place. Great times. It doesn't hurt so much right now, only when I shake my head or make sudden movements. Hoping it's nothing serious. I can't afford to go to the hospital so I guess I'll just tough it out for now.
Basically I miss a lot of people in Syracuse and would like to get back sometime soon here to visit, but that's looking less and less realistic as I am pretty much living on my last $1200 until I can find employment. All in all it doesn't really bother me THAT much because I know I'll get back there soon, just not as soon as I wanted to.
I'm pretty much out of shit to write for now...I'm going to just lay down and listen to all the Modest Mouse I just put on my computer.
