(no subject)
I'm stuck in awful football hell. I'm sick like a bastard but there is no such thing as 'sick days' during football season. I get twelve sick days a year. But pretty much if I don't use them before fall, I work so much on any given week through December, that using sick days is pointless when I'm way over 40 hours no matter what. Being salaried sucks ball.
There are lights at the end of the tunnel, though. I've have a few slow weeks in Decemeber when classes are on break. And I've started planning a vacation with Melody to Las Vegas/Los Angeles in Mid January for her, myself, Dave, and Liz. That's genuinely the soonest life will be worth living and it can't come soon enough.
Footballs. Video game playing rock and roll comic book reading me didn't see a future in collegiate sports when he was younger. I do really like the job though. I'm good at it. I have almost no supervision and call the shots. And being out at public events is nice. It's far better than working in an office 100% of the time.
I wish my assistant were better. I didn't do a great job hiring new ones this year. One is cool, but his hours are limited. One is boring and sickly and has no interest in people or sports. And one is just plain dumb. I miss my old assistants. I used to have a sassy gay white guy named Sean, a petite chinese girl from Ann Arbor named Bernice, and a black lesbian with dreadlocks named Darrena. We all went to the Lansing gay bar once. That was a hoot. Darrena is back for the season, and she's great, but her hours are limited. My assistants are pretty much my best friends for the year and I didn't choose wisely this time around. Better luck next time, I guess?
