Sanity for the Unemployed

Sure, just e-mail me an address and city and I can get there. About 9:45?

Is Crackd’Off (however you spell it) coming too? I have enough room for him.

BTW, what’s the weather up there? Should I bring a hat and mittens?

Sorry to hear you are bored Jack, but a search on your area lists several thousands of things to do in your area… May I suggest the 010101: Art in Technological Times exhibit or even the upcoming Chagall exhibit.
My city isn’t even listed, when I ran my zip code it only showed that “Cast Away” was playing in my area… I think I’m going to go tip some cows.

Good luck on the job hunt. Be an animal in the job interviews. :smiley:

since I’ve spent far to much effing time jobless over the last couple years, I’ve got a pretty consistant schedule for the weekdays:

11AM-1PM wake up (unless some a-hole calls to damn early in the day)
1-2 do the job board thing
2-2:01 play voicemail tag with recruiters
2:01-3 wait patiently for recruiters to ignore me
around 3 decide that I stink enough for a shower
around 4 realize i’m starting to get hungry (remember your appetite when you were in HS? I still haven’t gotten rid of it)
play vid games, surf, general inet stuff until the Devils game (or other NHL games) comes on.
watch game and get loaded until about 10:30
10:30 till dawn watch some bad movies on TV, surf some more.

Wow, I take a little nap and look what I miss. Ok, I’ve put out a few emails, and I’ve collected a few phone numbers to fall back on if we don’t get things set tonight.

Here’s what I propose: Demo’s plan. All meet at 11:00am at Boudin Bakery (I even know right where that is). All in favor?
Come one come all.

Woodsock birdybidrbirdybirdybird: Tell your bosses you’re a Universal Unitarian and that tomorrow is a religious holiday. Call it StraightDopemas or something.

Omni: If you catch the red-eye, you can still make it here by morning. Come on, you did it once - you can do it again.

absoul: Thanks for that list, that’s just what I need. Awesome research job.

slowhand: My schedule is slowly slipping toward college type attitude’s as well. Hopefully I can find a job that will fit in with my new “later-in-the-day” schedule.

Ok, I’m really pumped about this Alcatraz deal. Let’s get a consensus and make it happen. Any B.A.D.'s (that’s Bay Area Dopers) who haven’t checked in are of course welcome.

I’m so far driven with that 'tude that I took a short term gig (over by the end of the month) that involves me doing nothing but sitting on my ass for 12 hours at a clip twwice a week. pay is alright (ballpark with what i’ve been making) but it has absolutly no responsibilities other than showing up on time and staying awake in case the phone rings.

oh and it looks like I was a little early with my stress-relief week-end. I flew out to SF to visit family 3 weeks ago other wise I woulda been out there with you guys tomorrow.

Ooo! I can hijack this and make it my “Welcome to the BAD clique” party! :wink:

Seriously, we’ll be there most likely. I think I may have caught scratchie’s nasty cold cuz I’m all sneezy and coughing and stuff, but it could just be withdrawals because I’ve decided to quit smoking cold turkey… let’s keep our fingers crossed that it’s not a cold.

psycat and I will be there…with camera in hand.

:smiley:

Ummmmm… Which Boudin’s bakery? Is there a specific one that I should know about?
…help…

Heh heh. What sanity? :smiley: That’s something I don’t have to worry about anymore. Almost a relief, actually.

Damn. I’m bummed that everyone’s going to Alcatraz tomorrow. I’ve never been. But, someone has to play the responsible person. Guess it will probably me. I have meetings all morning.

Have fun, though!

All right, screw work, I’m coming too. My girlfriend’s gonna have the car, so I’m gonna have to BART it in and take public transportation from there…Jack (or anybody who knows), could you e-mail me and let me know which bus/cable car/whatever to get there from the BART station (Embarcadero, I guess would be my best bet)? Thanks.

hell it’s easy. Just get off at any BART station. Embarcadero would be best. Catch the F line to Fishermans warf. It’s the trolly car on the rails. 1$. No problem.

Many thanks, white man. See you tomorrow.

In order to go I will also have to use public transportion. I live in Santa Cruz County. Can someone give me an idea of how many chances I’d have to make and where I’d have to make them? How many hours do you think I’d need to give it? I’m thinking like six…

Good point, oldie. I didn’t realize there were so many. To clarify:

Fisherman’s Wharf
156 Jefferson Street
San Francisco, CA 94133
(415) 928-1849

WAH! I’m jealous! I remember going to that Boudin’s when I was in SF, then heading over to Alcatraz. pout :wink:

Well, I am not unemployed, but I have tomorrow off anyway. For once having my days off in the middle of the week has come in handy! So I am coming, too, having bummed a ride off Demo and Psy, who are very gracious people.

Well, looks like i’m coming. Riding up with Sue, who has room and was kind enough to let me go with her. Never been to Alcatraz which is why i’m taking this opportunity to go.

:: wiping tears from eyes ::

I’m so touched that my ass being canned has been the impetus for a DopeFest to Alcatraz. Sounds like it’s going to be a winner. See you all at Boudin’s later this morning.

Yeah, you should get your ass canned more often, Jack. :smiley:

Doooooob!

Unfortunately, psycat couldn’t get the day off work after all, so she won’t be attending.

Boooo! I wish I could go. Have a fun day, all you slackers. I’ll just be here, toiling away, feeling sorry for myself. :wink:
