Well, for those of you who are not following me on facebook or twitter, the past few days have been a festival of lies and screwing over like never before. It appears that I will not be working for Block after all. I went to a huge joke of an interview on Friday where I was told that I would probably get around 10 hours a week (not 40 as promised) and maybe get 25 during peak (when I typically get 60-70). They also said there are no year round jobs and that there was no way in hell I would get credit for my past 3 years of experience and that I would never earn more than $8.00 (and that much is if I'm lucky). Add all of that to the fact that we were told not to go to any interviews unless we were specifically given a call and or email setting up a specific appointment. We only heard about the possibility of these interviews on Thursday as an afterthought. Then when I go there I find out (after waiting over two hours for them to get around to actually interviewing me) we had scheduled appointments that none of us were told about at all (we weren't even told the exact hours that the interviews were to be done). I had been feeling pretty concerned about the whole company in the fact that we were originally supposed to be interviewed at the beginning on October and it kept being put off and nobody has returned any of our calls or emails asking what was going on with interviews. I honestly can't believe I fell for any of their shit in the first place.

Plus I was totally lied to and fucked over by the Halloween committee and didn't get the shirts that we were promised for being committee members. It's bad enough we were supposed to have had sweatshirts held back for us and they didn't so we were going to settle for long-sleeved Ts but then to screw us over on that deal was just unacceptable. So we don't have any festival clothing because of this.

Then there is all of the typical lying and backstabbing at the hands of those who have been pulling this shit on myself and others for years. While I'm used to a lot of their shit I am constantly surprised at the depths that they will sink to in their need for subjugation, dominance and absolute control of others.

Of course, this sort of stuff just goes to show who your real friends are and who will be there when you need them.

So that's my sorry-ass life. Hope I didn't bother you too much with it. Surely your lives are in much better shape. I will do my best to keep in touch more in the future.

TTFN!
