This last week has been kind of busy.
Working a lot.
Funny isn't it.
I thought I quit.
Oh well, I guess it isn't too bad because I need the currency for this game.
I think I keep hoping that the perfect opportunity will fall in my lap if I wait long enough.
It frustrates me a little bit because when I'm at work I can't look for another job.
When I'm at work I can't do anything.
I can't relax,
I can't read a book,
I can't play the keyboard,
I can't write a story,
I can't hang out with my friends,
so then I am forced to try to squeeze all those important things into the little time I have outside of work.
Today I have the day off,
but I have worked for the last five days,
and have to work for the next two.
I want to relax here,
not be out looking for another job.
Therefore I will not be able to do anything about this until next week when I have more then one day off in a row.
What is time anyways though?
I guess it doesn't really matter.
Usually when I am at VW I am having a good time.
The people I work with are awesome.
A lot of the customers are really not that bad.
There are other nice people working in nearby stores.
It has it's negative side though.
It takes me half an hour to drive there.
On a good day.
I am perpetually late because everyday more and more cars appear in this midtown University area.
Gas prices keep going up,
and they are going to keep going up.
That is the reality of the situation.
I drive a truck which luckily get's pretty good gas mileage for what it is,
but it isn't one of these new economical models by any means.
It isn't realistic to keep up that commute.
Also I am afraid of catching the flu.
This flu season is going to be so bad.
Working in a vitamin store, in the mall, is not the best place to be.
Every year people come in and cough and sneeze on me asking what they should take to get better.
Think of these things beforehand, or get someone else to go out!
Don't go out in public and spread your vial germs around!
It is disgusting,
and I don't want to be around a bunch of sick people for the sake of making money.
Also I don't like the fact that I am chained there for a certain time frame.
When I stopped wearing a watch I pretty much lost the desire to keep track of time.
It's cool because I have gotten in much better touch with my bodies natural time-keeping mechanisms.
That is beside the point though.
When I'm at work I don't like that I can't just leave when I want to do something else.
Sometimes I just feel like,
you know I think I am through making money for the day and I want to go live my life,
but I can't because I am a prisoner there until 5 or 7 or whatever.
I have no idea what to do though.
I have no idea what kind of job allows you that kind of freedom.
There has to be something though.
I was going to write something a little more enlightening then this,
but I have to go smoke a bowl with a guy a few apartments down.
It will have to wait until later I suppose.
