Livejournal Bitching as a Method of Self Discovery

Last entry wasn't meant as a roll call for my homeboys, but looking back, it sorta comes across that way. In any case, it gives me one of those fuzzy feelings inside...

but then, I have gas, so that could also be a factor.

Job situation: Learning much less about Auto Upholstery than promised. Must call in advance every day to verify the opportunity to make money- degrading, somehow.

Friday:

Call, no answer, leave message.

Call 7 times.

Mexican co-worker answers, says business is slow, agrees to notify boss to call me if he needs me.

Monday:

Call, boss answers, angry that I didn't call friday.

My patience for my employer is coming to an end. I applied for the job to learn upholstery, first week spent learning/fixing plumbing. Boss treats other workers like used gum.

Fuck him. Time for another job.

Plan B= a friend suggested he could get me a job at Target.

Plan A= take cousin's advice, apply at Starbucks, take home (awesome) coffee beans every night.

Brother's music stuff may or may not be picking up. I never know if he's actually showing promise or simply getting all excited over nothing. time will tell.

Sister's flight changed planes in houston. I drove out to see her for 2 hours. She bought me food. Her first observations were

"Its hotter than 1000 Hells out here"

"Holy crap, you can't see but 1 or 2 miles before everything is clouded by smog."

I replied,

If you think the air makes you sick, you should meet the people.

I'm finding myself becoming somewhat numb to humanity, I'd always noticed that when people get into large groups (ie, major cities) the individual people get exponentially more obnoxious, so newcomers (ie, me) start to compensate by ignoring people as a whole, thereby adding to the problem of ignorance.
