you know what pisses me off? well i'll tell yah... going grocery shopping, and having to buy the so called "necessities" (towel paper, paper towels, deorderant, shampoo, etc) you pay over 90 dollars, and you come home thinking where's the food? Orange Juice...7 dollars. i swear, all i have is bread, ham, some yogurt, and two cans of generic spaghetti o's.

Cleaning out my drawers and closet.  Never did I think I had so much useless shit.

My job sucks!!!  It is been one year since I hired on here.  We haven't had steady work to do in about 5 months.  Then they tell me I dont work fast enough.  If I work fast, I run out of work for the week in a couple hours.  If I work slow, I run out of work in a couple days.  Either way I run out of work, then the bullshit busy work really starts.  I can't take it anymore.  It makes me feel like I made a big mistake to quit my job (that I hated) in Indy to move to the 'ville to work a job I hate more.  

This job is driving me crazy.  I'm in a 7' x 7' cube - can't talk to anyone (it is frowned upon) - can't listen to music - not supposed to have my cell inside the building.  I know how the factory farm chickens feel.  Just stay inside your box until your are requested.  They want me, seriously, to sit in dead silence (boss says it is less distracting) for 8 hours per day.  I come in early or stay late, any more than 5 minutes, I get in trouble.  

Anyone round here need a graphic designer?  Maybe anyone in the 'ville know someone who does?  I can also do 3D modeling and animation.  I'm ready and willing to go.

Hey no problem on the name - Doors reference - Lizard King (interesting though that it allows me to remain in the realm of anonimity (sp?)


I don't wanna leave the ville, just this job.   And believe me, I've been looking - trying to keep up with sending at least 6 resumes per day.  Hopefully something pans out soon.  Not only that, but I told my boss I've been learning some new programs, not really lying, but I when I'm through, my personal site & resume will be awesome.

Its really hard to remain or be positive when the day consists of what not to do.  I feel like every day I sit here is one more day between me and any good design job.  Its a stagnant depressing scene.  I'm sure it could be a lot worse as well.  It just sucks right now.

The environment you have described just seems like it would do nothing but squelch the natural creative artist that I was able to meet last June. Paul, you are a good man, and good things come to good people sooner or later! Just don't hold your breath while you are waiting.  ;)

Thanks man, I really appreciate it.  I guess sometimes everyone just needs a little pick me up

I've always been a NOW kinda guy.  Patience is a virtue, yes, but can it ever be a bitch.

I just need to keep my head on straight & keep my goals in mind.  Sometimes just sitting there and watching the clock tick on another (i hate to say it, but) wasted day, it starts to feel like the perverbial "chinese water torture".  Very small and slight, but it builds to an overwhelming feeling.

good luck paul!  i like your site's pictures.

i also think i need a new job.  i have been taking a break from "professional" (ya, know...what i went to college for) shit and have been working at a coffee shop.  sounds great.  kinda is.  no money, but easy and get to hang out with some cool people and drink coffee all day.  except (here it comes), i work with a few people who take themselves and everything so seriously.  they talk about each other behind each others backs.  they share all about their personal lives and a few of them don't like me at all.  i think it is because i don't want to hear it and i don't talk trash. if i have an issue with someone or about something, i talk to the person who is part of it.  not everyone else.  i refuse to get involved in shit like that.  it is just non productive behavior.  on top of all that bull, since i am not challenged at work, i am getting kinda bored.   i live in a college town and all these people are going back to school.  i miss school.  college was so great.  i loved taking classes.  unfortunately, i don't really want to go to grad school. no idea what i'd go into.  don't know what i want to do with the rest of my life.  i think i am being a bit hard on myself, but ya know, i thought i'd have it figured out by now.  i guess not.  i am going to be moving away as soon as my husband finishes grad school (most likely in january). don't know where we will go. probably east coast or west coast...where ever he gets a job.  at this point, i've been waiting for him to graduate for like 8 years.  let's fricking go.  i don't want to get a new job and then just quit.  so i'll hang. i'll serve espressos.  i'll smile and nod.  

i also have a love/hate relationship with the indian buffet.  my stomach hurts.

also, my kickball game will most likely be canceled due to rain.  today is kinda pissing me off.

thanks for listening folks.  i needed that.  i think the forum and myspace keep me from needing therapy.  thanks for a place to get these rans/thoughts out. [smiley=dankk2.gif]

[megisnotreal]

i hope things get better for you soon, beth. i am also wishing that i were back at college. i miss being able to do whatever i wanted whenever i felt like it.

Feel like a deadbeat after Friday Night Lights. Damn.  :(
