| all work and no play |
| 04.28.05 (4:13 pm) [edit] |
well, i was in charge today. it seems like everybody was just purposely coming up to me to load the work on me. but i think i handled things fine. and i believe i got my workers to meet the goals i set for them. though i had some backlash and disrespect, but that was expected. i barely had time to think or get anything going before i had to stop and solve some problem. coincidently, i got my raise today. .25 cents. i pray they see me as a management figure, they claim they do. but it'll be a longer wait than what i currently expect. i made a prediction 6 months ago that i'd get screwed over on a promotion to this one girl and that looks to be the case. i look forward to seeing her crack under the pressure and lose it. i didn't crack today. i was snappy because i had a hard time meeting my goals, kept getting interrupted.
i find it very difficulted to get anyone to take me seriously or respect me as a leadership figure around the office. i know i'm sharp around the edges and i word things badly sometimes. but i have this attitude of "work really hard, play after you're done." or something catchy like that. i don't like playing catch up or even falling behind. i'd rather stay ahead and on top of the game lest i be crushed. i think people see me as a jerk for that. always snapping at people to stay on task. they get easily distracted. they're like sheep you have to herd back into the corral. i'm a born leader, i just have a hard time putting my thoughts into action and getting everyone to go along with it. my superior boss recomended this one leadership type book and i might look into it, just to see how i can work on some things and actually SHOW em i mean what i say. it's oh so very boring, but a notable day.

i guess it's time a for a blog. small updates here and there. saw the amityville horror remake and it was terrifying. still freaks me out to think of some stuff in it. at this very second i'm listening to some live radiohead bootleg of "last flowers" radiohead is so depressing, it's funny how they can instantly dampen any good mood. but i just like it cuz it's a fantastic song. i beat my boss in a work related race and my prize, i'm in charge of the workers tomorrow. it was an odd bet. but i shall whip them into shape. the only rule is that i'm not allowed to be mean or fire people. too bad they caught me on that. i'm excited to be in charge tomorrow. even though it's fake store bought power. or even bet won power. i believe my project has come to an end at work, so i'm moving on to bigger things, or at least that's what i hope. i can't think of much more exciting things than this.

i'm in a better mood. my brother, his wife, baby, and best friend blew through town. so i took half the day off and had lunch, shopped around, threw the frisbee and hung out. i'm quite beat. but sadly enough, or not. i'm heading out to see the amityville horror with my bosses. interesting eh. a short post, but i'll get more when i have some more time.

this seems like one of those days when i just don't wanna get any phone calls and i don't wanna talk to anyone and i have nothing to say. bad mood. fighting getting sick again. long days at work. restless sleep. too many people talking at once. extrememly uncomfortable physically. blurry eyes. all that. i can say though that i'm up in the prank war vs. my bosses. i taped their mouses down and put sortkwik with a k on their phone. got them good. other than that, i'm in quite a bad moooood.

getting back on the blogging track, or at least trying. though my comments have dropped off quite sharply from my regular amount. wonder what gives.. i know the life of a 20 year old nobody isn't too interesting, but what else is there to write about? maybe it's funny i document my life for all to see. my life is just work, sleep, random activity 1-2 times a week. it's hard to think up a story for what i do each day. how can stamping checks seem interesting to anybody normal? that's what i did today. oooo. maybe it's my paranoia, but it feels like everybody at my work is moving ahead of me while i just stand still and watch. but i do everything in my power to be better than the rest, just weird timing. apparently, my brother and co are passing through town on friday, so i'm working as much as i can in order to be able to meet up with them without losing any hours. it's tricky but i think i can pull it off. i won a bid for a 15 gig ipod yesterday and that's heading to me in the mail this week, so that's cool. i didn't think it'd be so tricky to get rid of my ipod mini, especially at such a good price. i'm just avoiding ebaying it, cuz that's annoying to ship stuff. i don't like the post office. i've decided to really not hang out with my friends much anymore. and all of my old friends have kinda faded away, so there's nobody really to hang out with anymore. i asked my bosses what the crap you do in that situation. yer 20 years old and there's nowhere to meet anybody. don't refer me to the club scene either. ha. i'm even more of a loner than i anticipated i'd be this year. well, this post prolly seems quite incoherant, so i think i might get some shut eye.

a busy saturday, seems like. i woke up at 5:44am this morning thinking i had to go to work, so i turned on my phone and switched on my alarm, only to realize 2 seconds later that i didn't have to work. so shut them off and slept for another 5 hours. went shopping around and bought a used taylor made 3 wood for 20 bux! i'll be smashing that club all over the golf course, i'm excited to use it. also went around and got a root beer freeze, i'm allowed to have these every once in a while cuz they're so whipped up the carbonation is gone from them. it hit the spot. also went to the park and threw the frisbee around with my friend while my sister sat in the grass and watched. we have an appointment to see a dang cheap cool little condo on monday for her. she's in the market and i'm excited for her to get out of her crappy place she's at now. her place isn't crappy, but all her neighbors certainly are. it's ridiculous and it's about time she had some peace and quiet. tonight, i'm resting, might see a movie, might not.

sorry in my last post i said all a lot, and 95% as a figure. maybe instead of saying all, i should just say "basically every last one of them" a very high percentage... grr still mad just thinking about it. today i practiced with the magic fingers. my wrist hurts from all that strumming. even had the debut of an original magic fingers song. that was terrifying trying that one out. i'll say it needs some work. but it's warming up and we've got some good stuff to try out on the street. i'm beat. needa rest cuz people say i'm a workaholic. even when they try to send me home early due to overtime, i end up staying late somehow. it's just crazy how exhausted i feel every morning i wake up, even when i get a full night of sleep. i think it's just cuz i've been sick and still recovering. i'd say i'm 75% and need that shut eye to close that gap. so i'm off.

where the crap did kids my age come from? i swear they all make me sick. all feigning responsibility, running back home to mommy and daddy to pay their bills. not looking for jobs, thinking it will land in their laps. no morals, all sheep followers without any guts to stand up for anything. some are so far past the line, some are terrified to walk 1 foot off the line. they're unoriginal monkies, entertained by whatever is the most entertaining at the time. they want it now, pay later. go into debt, borrow, steal. blah. they have no idea what they want, who to love, what to think, they know nothing of politics or current events or history. totally ignorant of everything, oblivious to their surroundings. impolite, rude foul mouthed morons. stupid little kids who crave attention, got no discipline. they give up, don't work hard, slack, cut corners when nobody's looking. seriously, this is the last 95% of everyone i've bumped into for the past 3 months. i'm so tired of everybody calling me "dad" when i tell them to take care of themselves and work for once in their lives. i just might be the only logical, responsible kid under the age of 21 west of the mississippi. if you are another, it's nice to meet you.

still getting over being sick. basically laid down all weekend. rested. still not 100% watched the masters. tiger always has some crappy nobody who won't die playing the game of their life against him. that's how it always is. even though it's golf, it's incredibly nerve wracking, believe it or not. but nothing in the way of news. listening to gorillaz all this time. that's good enough for me.

i see my posts have been short and infrequent. i might have to keep with that trend for now. i've fallen victim to the latest sickness going around. it's not doing much to me, just coughing, and i have that sicky, bluesy deep voice. which worked well when they made me answer the phones for a while at work. i have to admit i felt a bit out of place playing secretary today. and with the half hour of doing it, heard just about all the jokes. i wouldn't like doing it all the time. no plans really this week. might get the magic fingers mock album photo taken for free from my photographer friend. visit. http://www.waltsorensen.com" title="http://www.waltsorensen.com" target="_blank"http://www.waltsorensen.com to see his work and stuff. i understand his website is gonna be updated really soon and totally revamped. for he is venturing into business marketing, or something like that. i already thought up the jingle for walt.. you can't hear the tune but it goes "walt sorensen photography, sorensen with an E!" it's grand. and annoying!
