I should probably not be posting when I haven't slept in over a day but this could kill some time and keep me awake (as long as I keep getting IMs in the background maybe it will). Anyhow it is kinda depressing lately and not just cause I am messed up because of lack of sleep. For one thing we are taking down our Christmas stuff. That's really no fun at all, Christmas lights and trees and such are just fun to have up. Obviously the season is about much more then that but I gotta say I enjoy the trappings quite a bit and am sad to see them go. Things are just blander and darker til spring rolls around.
Also depressing is the fact that break is mostly over and I have seen really no one (barring my jaunt apartment shopping in Point which was about a month ago) at all. All the people who I am friends with in La Crosse (maybe acquaintances is a better word since it's been prolly half a year minimum since I've seen any of them) are as usual way to busy with hanging out with each other, work, sig others, and whatever as usual. So whilst they can apparently juggle their schedules enough for most people I get dropped out. It steams me somewhat because whenever they are bored they pop online and IM me and complain that they're bored as if I exist to allieviate that. Grr...maybe I am a little more worked up about this right now then usual but hey I try and arrange/offer to hang out with people and visit them and whatnot and sometimes I just wish it'd be reciprocrated. Or that people would just tell me I'm no bloody fun to be around and that they'd like me to bugger the heck off. I realize that when I read this on the flipside it's gonna look like one paragraph hock full of pathetic self-pity. Oh well.
Shopko of course helps to kick morale into high gear. Lesse, I've worked/will work (barring another cancelation) a grand total of 7 days over this nearly 2 month break of which approx. 1 month I've been available to work. Yes, the place which desperately needs to hire more overnight personnel can't give the current ones, I'm not unique in this case, no sir, more then a day or two a week. How the hell can they even call that competent management when they don't give the fulltimers full time hours? We must have dunces in control who make Dilbert's boss look like the shining light of genius. Furthermore the second best manager (that's saying a bloody awful that too) I've ever had at the 'Ko quit. Yea, the higher ups, particularily our gifted "yes man" store manager who seems to be dilbert's boss on good days drove the guy to quit it seems. Isn't that just spiffy? Sheesh nice to know they can keep the talent working there.
N-E-WHO...I think this rant has gone on long enough, time to put it up and show what a total fruit I am. Or total nut. You decide. If ya want I'll key in sometime too (leaning towards fruit at the moment, possibily bannanas to be specific). I do feel a little better now, not much but a little.
Good news: SALT in one week.
