New Year…So Changes?

January 13, 2009 at 7:37 am

Ok, so I was reading someones blog yesterday and they said that they had decided to delete all their old blog posts (after saving them of corse) because it’s a new year so there should be a fresh start. (If this was you let me know and I will link to you.) Anyways..I was thinking of doing the same thing. Only also adding a new layout and organizing my pages and such. :)   I’m also going to start trying to write blog posts that are a decent length. Most of mine are fairly short and usually annoy me. I was thinking about making myself get to a certain word count…but maybe not. I don’t know yet. We shall see.

Yesterday was a crappy day. Well, school was ok (first day back)..but work was crap. After a day like that at work I’ve decided that I hate working there. I’ve never liked working ‘normal’ jobs. WalMart is definatly a ‘normal’/deadend job. They tell you that it isn’t a deadend job, they tell you that anyone can work their way up the ladder in the WalMart corporation. But the way I see it…it’s a deadend job. I don’t think there are many people that aspire to be a WalMart employee.

Not only is it a deadend job, but they treat you like crap. Let me explain:
Sense I started back in August I have been sick/unable to work quite a bit. (Not as much as January of last year, but that’s another story.) WalMart has a point system. You get a point when you miss a day of work, half a point when you are late, 1/3 of a point if you leave early but only after you have been there for at least half of your shift. Well, I had a dentist appt. in September and another in October, both of which I couldn’t get them to let me have time off for. So I got points for that. I almost passed out at work 3 times and decided to leave early in November. I got in a wreck in November and was late. I had the misscariage the beginning of December and was late because of going to the doctor. I had a cyst before Christmas and left early one day because I was in so much pain. And I think that’s it. So all of those times I have had an actual reason for not being there. I’m not like the teenagers who call in on Friday because of a party, or the ones that call in on Saturday because they are hugover because of a party. That’s not me. I get a job because I need it. I work hard for the people I’m employed by..but aparently that’s not enough. Now they have told me that sense I haven’t been there for more than 6 months if I miss another day I will be fired. Well f**k them, I don’t give a s**t.

Ok, please excuse me for that last sentence. I don’t normaly talk like that. WalMart is just not one of those places that I can stand to work at for a long period of time. I keep saying that I will be quitting at the end of this semester…but it may be before that. Of corse, I won’t quit if I know we still need the money. That’s the only reason I’m there now.

Anyways…. How’s this for a decent length post? haha.



Simplicty

I walked to the post office the other day. It was a bit chilly…but it was nice to get out of the house. It’s not that far from my house (I live in a very small town, the post office is the only thing here execpt for the beer store by the highway). That day was a very un-eventful day. I also swept and swiffered the floors. I could have done more to clean the house…but I just didn’t feel like it. :/ I’m allowed a lazy day.

School starts back up next week. I went and got my books today. I have four classes (12 hours) and I’m going every day but Friday this semester. Adobe Flash, Adobe InDesign, 3D Animation, and Digital Media Projects are my classes. All computer classes. :D

I’m excited about this semester, but I will also be happy when it’s over. I’ll be graduating this semester. Once I graduate I am going to start putting up flyers for my webdesign and then go out on the road with Cory. I think I will spend two weeks out with him then two weeks home. I would probably stay out full time execpt that I will need to come home every now and then to collect money from clients. O and I will get to quit my “day job”. lol.



Feelings

August 29, 2008 at 9:29 pm

Right now I feel like I could possibly go crazy. Actually, I fee like everything I do is mostly pointless right now. I feel like I’m not getting anything done and I also just don’t feel like doing much.

I need to get a job. But I also feel like I should promote my web design business more. If I did get a job then I wouldn’t have time to do the web design and my school work. But I have to do my school work, I’ve come too far to quit now.

If I got a job and didn’t do web design (which really isn’t a choice sense I’m in the middle of two projects right now) I don’t know that I would really have time for school work. Atleast not at the place Cory is working at. I would really like working with Cory. I feel like we don’t get enough time together any more. I’m sure he dosen’t know this, but I really enjoyed just riding around town for an hour today. Just to spend that time with him.

I guess I just feel kind of lost right now. I know what I want to do and I know what I need to do. And those just don’t match up right now.
