My Day Downtown
Oy, today's been a nasty and tiring day.
First, check out this e-mail I got...
Why? You stupid fat fuck. Have you looked at yourself in the
mirror lately? What a joke. Your lucky I am even writing this
because I can't stand you most of the time. Why do you not get
serious about looking better? With all the bullshit out there
right now and dam results I've seen in the people I know, your
an idiot not trying something. My fuckin sister lost 56 lbs
not even exercising using this crap http://bookebelz.com
It's about time you stopped being a lazy piece of shit and
do something about yourself.
-You know who I am probably
Lovely, huh? It was a random forward but seems coincidental because I'm trying to lose weight - which is actually starting to happen (minus the KFC and A&W I had recently). I don't like being a "fat fuck" though. A stupid one, at that.
Speaking of being a stupid fat fuck (being me), I got involved in a bit of a cat-fight on my LJ today. It's a private matter and I care not to go into details - but I wasn't happy to see such a thing unfold, either. Peace, my brothers and sisters, peace.
And then there was the 5-hour long interview/training session with Kelly Services this morning, which is a temp-agency that is hooking me up with a temp position at eBay. After filling out about 20 forms, watching 2 training videos, and doing 3 tests that deal with my internet savvy, Windows 2000 savvy, typing speed, and my secretarial/e-mail skills. After all that, it would appear I have a position waiting for me, as long as my school and criminal check proves I didn't fail all my courses and kill everyone. So it seems like a done deal.
Thing is, do I want it? The duties I'd have are basic, eBay is something I know well anyway, it's a casual workplace, and the pay is decent - better than I ever had at Shell. The downsides? The shifts I'd be given at the start are for afternoons and graveyards - obviously not my preferred schedule - and there doesn't seem to be much room for advancement, except for supervisor and/or administrative duties. We'll wait and see. But I think I'll do some of the training and after that 13 week period, I'll see what I think.
The other sweet thing is that I mentioned that while I'll do those ugly graveyard shifts, those aren't my preferences - so the agent said to me that she could send me information on another temp position at another call centre. Score!
And then, my tongue is totally burned because I drank my tea yesterday - and today - and didn't have the patience for it to cool. Stupid tea-bags!
And finally, surrey_sucks, I was thinking about you today, in that I was going to deliver your book back to you on the way home - I was like a minute from your house at one point! - but I decided against it cuz I have a righteous cold and don't want to give it to anyone else if I can help it. :(
