In which the author finally gets a hang of that thing called work
I love living alone.
In order to continue to do so semi-comfortably I work.
A Lot.
For those of you that have been around for awhile you may have noticed that this is never something I have committed to doing for great lengths of time.
Something has really gotten into me lately.
Some say it's my 30's.........maybe.
I have turned into a.......good employee. Holy macaroni! what a notion!
It pays the bills!
Now where I work may surprise anybody that might be reading this journal that has been here since the beginning of my live journal days.
I work 32-40 hours a week at the headquarters of The Virginia Department of Corrections.
ME of ALL people.
30swag says what?????
Basically it's a cushy office job that my friend - recently turned cousin-in-law Lois kinda shoved upon me.
Actually a large part of half my work week is data entry. Data being pornographic publication titles and their respective publisher addresses. The other half is processing penitentiary inmates grievances.
That's in a nutshell anyways. It's tedious but man does it have it's entertaining moments!
Oh, and it's a five minute drive from my place.
and it pays dem bills!
I also work part-time at Holiday Inn.
It's about a 15 minute ride both from home and from work.
I've been at the hotel for what will be a year in February.
I will check you in and usually be extremely cheerful while doing so.
When I first started this job I SUCKED at it.
Didn't know what I was doing and that would get my frustrated which turned into an unpleasant check-in experience for everyone involved. But these days I'm a PRO.
It's easy peasy. even if i tend to complain about the behind the scenes stuff.
This one allows me to eat, drive, and get my drink on!
So, I work on average 55 hours a week but NEVER more than 70 which is my limit.
well, it's actually over my limit but...............again I am doing what I have to do to maintain my full time 30swag life style along with my still every once in awhile rock star life style.
I'm in a pretty good place.
I still have my stuff.
still lots to work on
but right now I'm doing pretty good with the responsible adult stuff.
and that feels pre
