I start my new job tomorrow at 11 pm. I'll be stocking frozen food in a grocery store for $8.70 an hour.

I should be happy because I've been out of work for over a month but I'm not happy at all. It's not something I want to be doing because I did that job 4 years ago and I didn't like it back then either.

It's more of a stepping stone until I find something better. Sad thing is, working nights saps my energy dry and I don't feel like job hunting. So I may be stuck doing this shit job for awhile until I get totally fed up or quit.

What problems did you get into with your co-worker?

we were just joking around and playing like we usually do because we just so happen to both be around the same age group. He's 20, I'm 17. So we were just talking shit to eachother. I don't remember how it started but he said "I had my way with your girl 10 times last night", then I said "Fuckoff fagot, everyone around here knows you love the cock. You can't get away with straight sex jokes." The boss was at the shop at this time and he was on the other side of the window(theres a lunch room and a storage room and the only thing separating them is an open window, which was the problem in this case). He took us both into the office room and asked whats going on and I told him we were just playin around and we didn't actually mean the shit we said. He then says "well maybe after your holiday you wont be screwing around in my shop. Don't bother coming in tomorrow, both of you."

That really pissed me off, seeing how we were on our fucking lunch break too. That shit brought back old school memories...

Sorry to hear man. It was kinda extreme of the boss to do that. Nothing to get to crazy over. Summer is almost over anyway.

[Jay212]

My boss can be an ass a lot but he's still a cool guy. He makes lunch for everyone on really hot days. Nothing like a 12 oz steak after a long hard day of work.

Youve got that right

gorecore,
maybe you will meet some interesting new people????
either way, good luck with your re-entry into the workforce, and hope you can find a more suitable stone to step on as soon as possible...

[Baybee]

So I moved out of kamloops. Yeah, not one of my best ideas.. Maybe if I had moved somewhere other than Mission. I hate Mission, its gay, and small, and smells of cows.

I wanna go home

Thanks Animal. I hope you're right with meeting cool people...and that I'll find a more suitable job ASAP.

I felt really depressed on my first shift last night. I'm not exactly an outgoing person by nature, so I come across as shy and withdrawn. I don't expect people I don't know to know this. Last night though, nobody talked to me at all. Even though I'm "the new guy" there, I really felt like I was an outcast for some reason.

Well, it was my first night so hopefully tonight will be better. But as I type this, I have Canada's job bank website open and I'm already hunting for something new.

[Jay212]

Well, you said it yourself... they don't know you aren't and outgoing person, so couldn't it be slightly possible that no one else on the same shift as you last night was an outgoing person either? Slim chance, but I find it really hard that no one talked to the new guy. That's some shit right there.

hows the bud?

[Gorecore]

I should rephrase that. No one talked to me except for the "acting supervisor". She showed me the warehouse section, the freezer where I pull stock from, and she gave me a knife to cut boxes open. That was it.

I talked with the other guy who was working with me in the frozen food section, but it was all job related stuff like, "This goes there. Come with me. Time for break. etc."

Another reason why I didn't talk to anyone is because of everyone's "look" they had on their faces. Eyes vacant, no smiles, and everyone pretty much looked like zombies. Fuck it's depressing. I've got to find something better.

I'm even thinking about selling everything I own except for my clothes, guitar, and CD's and moving out west to Alberta or BC to find work and start a new life. I'm reallllllly thinking hard about that. The only thing that scares me is finding a place to live because I don't have any friends or relatives out there.

[Dr. Greenthumb]

Maybe you could breathe new life into the place.

start showing your nutsack to your co-workers...it worked in Waiting, it can work for you.

I recomend the goat. If you cant pull that off try the bat wing.

[Jay212]

I've been off work 2 days in a row so far, don't exactly know why but I just didn't bother going in today.

I'm feelin really bad right now and I don't have anyone or anything to cheer me up. Music is even depressing me even more. I can't really wait for friday because I'm going to either take shrooms, E, and smoke tons of weed with some chillin people, but in order to do that I have to ditch my other dumbass friend. This guys a fuckin dick though. Whenever he wants to go out and buy something or go shopping it's all good and fine for everyone to tag along with him, but if he doesn't have any money to go shopping it's all "fuck you im not going because i cant buy anything". I hate those fuckin pricks... Anyways i think im just gona go watch some Jay and silent bob. Those fuckers might cheer my ass up. peace.

fuck it mate, go for it...if your current situation has been bogged down in poverty and/or soul destroying jobs with clone people, then yes, i would say escape..not escape..move on. try something new...

personally, i tend to change flats, towns, countries whenever adversity or boredom starts creeping into my life...this last year in australia has been hard, really damn hard at times, because i am a creature who gets most his love from his mates and cats (who are mainly in the (f)UK). So for me, it is time to get back to blighty and get some love back inside, then i will have more love to give OUT to the world as a whole.

sometimes i just run like proper escape, but what the hell, it's a big wide world and my own philosophy leads me to constantly search for the situation offering the greatest potential for happiness. that is the cross i bear...to seek that situation with real zeal...

Without the love of my mates and cats, i become colder internally,and able to find passion for only negative issues. Yeh, so first stage of my latest period of recuperation will be a few weeks at my mother's house in Kent(with the cats) , the purchase of an oldish 600cc supersports mbike (maybe an 91 fzr or cbr), and then a return to Brighton on the south coast.

i am shit at advice, and tend to take the otpion of explaining my own Way rather than assuming i can gauge what may be best for someone i have never looked in the eye or shaken by the hand....

as the italians say gorecore, in boca al lupo....

[Dr. Greenthumb]

Yeah gore let me know if that works out. I've been meaning to do the same. I really want to check out vancouver even if I end up living in a smaller town. It's all good no matter where I live as long as the weed is good or I can grow my own.
