Dear Dope Friends,
Once again, I regret to inform, that I probably won’t be posting very much. I started a new job on Tuesday the 18th of July. I am now working on the third shift stock crew at a local supermarket. I work from 9:00 pm to 5:30 am. That means I have to sleep almost day, leaving virtually no time for playing at the SDMB or any kind of playing at all.
While I am thankful that I have a job, I don’t really care for it very much. My hours are quite exhausting. The guys I have to work with are a bunch of the lowest form of “white trash” I have seen in years, and that’s an understatement. You learn a lot about people working around them 8 and a half hrs a day.
As for the job itself, it pays “fairly.” It’s enough for me to get by on, temporarily. I am quite disappointed, however, in regards that this job offers no challenge, no responsibility, and is pretty much a “dead-end.” I didn’t really expect anything more before going into this job anyway. I think a bunch of orangutans could do this job. Lord knows they would have better personalities than the freaks I have to work with. This job’s just a stepping-stone until I can find a better opportunity, and believe me, I will. Of course, I will not be leaving this job unless I already have something pre-arranged and confirmed, elsewhere.
My job may suck, but at least I have a job and I’m earning money. Any job is better than no job. As long as I try to keep the preceding statement in mind, I should be able to keep my chin up. I’ve got to tell you, though, it’s really hard doing a 180 like I have. A month ago, I had a job that I loved so much, I could not find one thing about it that I disliked. Now, I have a job that I don’t care for at all, and cannot find one thing about it that I do like. Things will get better. I won’t give up. I’m at rock bottom, so there’s only one way to go, and that’s up, of course.
So there is my newest MPSIMS. I have become one of the undead, a creature of the night. Oh, how I miss the sun! Oh, how I miss having a life. Toe tag me and embalm me. I am a zombie.
