me too.
I was a LOT less fuckin' angry.

on Friday, I'm gonna kill my boss.

and maybe quit my job.
sell my house, move back to Winnipeg, and me miserable until I fuckin' die.

have I mentioned that I fuckin' hate people?

Our jobs would be so much better if it wasn't for the people!

Working nights has one excellent benefit... Almost no one is here. Problem is, I'm supporting people in Australia and Singapore the first half of the night, then Middle East, UK and Africa the latter half. The Aussies are pretty cool, though.
 
well, normally, my problems are with customers

this time, it's my boss.

he knows (and this was a condition of me taking the fuckin' job to begin with) that I depend on someone esle (employed by the same company) to drive me to/from work. i.e., we have to work similar shifts. if she is 12-9, so am I. give or take 30 mins or whatever.
until I get my full license and a car.

well, today, he had a huge pissy hissyfit with her.
she told him, "he'll be at work when I get him there, noon on late shift week.
today, he says "well, he may not be there for long"

my boss, and the BIG boss had discussed this just a few days ago, no problems.


I am THIS close to phoning him right now and telling him to go fuck himself.
I won't.
not yet.

but we WILL have fuckin' words on Friday.
and if he pulls that attitude with me, I'll walk right to the labour board.
and to his boss as well, since my boss doesn't put in anywhere near the 40hrs he's s'posed to.
and maybe mention his toddler kids running around in the meat room.
you know, where we have saws, knives, and a code of dress to protect the fuckin' meat.
never mind the calls to the health dept. since the only cleaning that gets done is what I do.
meaning, 2 days/week, NOTHING is cleaned.
except for the tabletops, I'll give him that.

right now, I could happily stab him in the fuckin' face.

with a goat.

not EG's goat though.

I like that EG guy
 
Major suxxors. Nothing worse than a shitty boss. Let everything cool down before doing anything radical.

I can stab him with the goat, provided you pay me in Peekertones and Mung CD's!
 
I can do that, but hte mUNG stuff will have to be hushhush
else I'll have to pony up $$ for the other guys.

I think I've gotten in over my head now.
I've got FOUR cds in the works.

the new studio one from MUNG "Brand Spanking New"
we are also gonna have a live cd, only available from the website, called "You're a C**t"
it will have "un" in the actual title, of course.
gonna have a hard time gettin' that cover pressed, as it is VERY explicit.
as you can imagine :helper:
there's a pic of me emerging from a...well, you know.
bass in hand, flipping the bird.

plus, The Peekertones' new cd, and my new project, Facehater.
those last two are close to done (as is the MUNG studio one)
Facehater probably needs the most work yet
but, crap, it feels like I never have any friggin' time.
 
I think there is something in the air, or a bunch of angry planets lined up (not that I believe that bullshit) because as of late I have been very frustrated and basically intolerant of the stupidity around me. I don't like being like this, because after swimming in the seas of negativity for years, I know and believe that being positive no matter what ones beliefs or faith, is at the center of self actualization and enlightenment.

I've been this way for , well, since I was old enough to spot stupidity

I do generally keep a pretty positive outlook, and a stiff uppper lip, etc.

and I am pretty willing to work around things.

but this shit he pulled today, that ain't gonna fly.
kid's gotta learn.
he's never been a manager before (and he kinda sucks at it, TBH, forgets to order stuff for folks, etc, and I get the shit for it)
but he can cut steaks faster than I can, so...

I've already been offered his job, so once I have wheels, I'm gonna look into taking it.

and he fucked me over in the contract for the floor refinishing at work.
was s'posed to tell me when they were taking tenders, never did.
so he and his _____ of a wife could get it.
I laughed.
"dude, you don't even clean up after yourself in the fuckin' meat room! yer gonna strip & wax the floors?"
and he has zero experience in this.
I have about 7 years.
and would have charged them less.

y;know what, though?

fuck 'em.

ain't no skin off my ass.

comes down to it, I'll rent out rooms to the oil rig guys, and not work at all.
my house is plenty big enough
just need some doors.
 
speaking of forgetting to order stuff...

okay, me and him, we ARE the meat dept at our store
there;s only the two of us.
he's on holidays.

yesterday, I run out of ground beef.
I think, "well, there's a truck tomorrow, no worries"

nope.

fucker didn't order any.

and none on the next truck either.

hamburger.

fucking HAMBURGER
the one thing we always sell a lot of.
and you didn't order any?!?


so I used the extra lean beef, along with some bench trim, just to get thru the day.
we lost money on that.
which means I will lose hours.

fuck.
 
:yawn: I'm just pure fucking exhausted. 26 months of night shift will do that. I haven't taken an actual vacation in all that time, either.

The last few weeks, I've been more than the usual tired. I hope there isn't anything going on medically. messedup0

I'm taking 2 weeks off starting mid-week next week. Sweet, glorious relaxation and time with Mrs. T. 8)
 
26 months of nights?!?

fuck!

I would've either killed someone or quit

too old for that shit.


I get cranky when I get home at 9:30 PM
 
Not every night. Alternating 3 nights one week, 4 the next week.

Prolonged shift work is classified as a low level carcinogen. Not working at all has to be even more unhealthy, and guitars don't grow on trees.
Well, at first they do.

I would be quite happy not having to work.

cash providing, of course

I'd probbal;y never leave the house.

I'd get all skinny(er), and cranky(er)

Whew. She was getting nervous there for a minute.

That sucks, man. I've come to the conclusion that all jobs pretty much suck. You trade one form of suckage for another.

EG
 
the job itself is fine.
what they need to do is get rid of my lazy-ass manager, and give me his job.
there still a fair bit for me to learn though.
so maybe by the time I buy a car...


I'm a bit mellower today, fwiw. :lol:
