(Untitled)
Hello, Internet land. I am pissed because my iPhone failed to post my previous entry. Devo. What's new? Not much with me, working and studying. Is it wrong that I don't hate my uni studies? As for right now, I'm watching bones. Emily Deschanel is something else ( Read more... ) -
Here are some handy workplace hints.
Never tell your boss that the OH&S in your store is a joke, and that all of the management policies are just talk. Chances are, he'll promote you to someplace where you have to implement the policy yourself.
Never show up your supervisor, even if he is an incompetent dickhead. His girlfriend will call you a bitch! (Oooooh....)
Never assume nightfill ( Read more... ) -
Easy Like Sunday Mid-Afternoon
I just realised I'm into Week 10 of my Uni study period, and I haven't listened to ONE lecture yet. That makes me about, oh, forty lectures and three video clips behind. However I am now aware that my skills of winging assignments are epic, because I haven't failed anything yet. Proper.
Sunday arvos are great. Hunter is watching In The Night ( Read more... ) -
Yet More Customers I Fought With
I work at Big W. It is menial. It is only a stop-gap til I finish Uni. It doesn't completely suck, I enjoy the company of most of my workmates. I get to listen to whatever CD I want. I get to watch whatever movies I want. I hang out and play with photoshop and call it 'familiarising myself with the technology'. But the customers. OH MY GOD. I want ( Read more... ) -
I Did Something I Am Not Proud To Admit
Wanna know what it was?
I read the Twilight series. Everyone I know had been harping on and on and on about it. At first, I was quite reluctant. I'd heard bits about the plot and characters and it didn't entirely attract me. I mean, it's a love story essentially, and My Summer of Love notwithstanding, I don't do love stories. But vampires, ( Read more... ) -
Hellooooo everyone.
So, again I disappeared momentarily. Again, I had a throat and chest infection... At least it wasn't swine flu. That would have sucked. Pigs are so evil in their germ spreading capabilities.
My life has been decidedly mundane lately. It's mainly just me stalking people on facebook (people I know, I'm not completely pathetic) and neglecting Uni work ( Read more... ) -
It's a down sort of day
It really is. And not just coz Michael Jackson died. Which, you know, is sad and all, but working in music retail, EVERY IDIOT IN THE WORLD WANTED A CD OR DVD OF HIS TODAY AND I HAD NONE TO GIVE THEM. And the thing is, some of them got shitty, too. Like, "He just died, how could you not have any of his stuff in ( Read more... ) -
Mmm.
Ever worked with someone who is incredibly stupid and insensitive, but unaware of the fact that people want to punch them in the scrotum everywhere they go? I do. I will call him AC, for Asshat Colleague. AC had only worked with me for about two weeks before I went on maternity leave. Prior to his arrival I had been with the company for three ( Read more... ) -
I was absent again.
Yes, I was. And there's a big long story. I started having serious concerns about my health two months ago after a crippling pain in my chest (not the heart attack kind of pain, more tender, swollen, aching, higher up than that) developed and didn't go away. After lengthy visits with my GP, there was concern that I might actually have breast cancer ( Read more... ) -
I have neglected to do this for so long.... FAIL.
Fact of the matter is, I promised Ange a long time ago that I would do this. It's not like I was lacking in resources, just time. Because, you know, working thirty hours a week, doing four subjects at Uni by correspondence and having an almost-six-month-old tends to erase huge portions of your life without you realising ( Read more... )
