Two kinda shitty things though. The job is only for 3 months. The guy interviewing me said, "There is a very good chance that we'll hire you full-time once your 3 months is up."
The other shitty thing is that if they hire me full-time, I have to take a medical exam and drug screening. Not too big a deal. I'll just have to really limit my intake of weed...especially the month before they might take me on...if they hire me, that is.
It shouldn't be too hard to pass. I haven't been toking hardly at all anymore. Maybe 5 times in the past 3 months.
Tomorrow is another interview! I'm stoked for that one! Here's hoping that my ass gets back into the employed world sometime before this month ends!!
I FUCKING GOT THE JOB!!!!!
They called me today to offer me the position, which I practically jumped up and down with joy while trying not to scream, "YES!! OH YES!"
I start first thing Monday morning. I want everyone to keep their digital fingers crossed that I don't get laid off after the 3 months. I want to stick on there full-time because of the money. It's not amazing, but pretty good. 11.75 an hour to start. A dollar an hour raise after 6 months. Then another dollar per hour raise after another 6 months passes. Then yearly raises after that. So if they keep me for a year, I'll be making close to 15 bucks an hour! WooT!!

FUCK YEAH.
Congratulations Keith, you can't imagine how glad I am that you're financially sound again
Now go buy a big bag 'o weed and knock yourself out :p
What happened during my week?
I dropped my keys down the elevator shaft at work... Yeah, I was waiting on a colleague blocking the door and as I was happy the working day was over I was swirling my keys around and all of a sudden they fly off of my finger, straight into the two or three inch gap between the elevator and the wall of the shaft...Incredible.
€75 to get a technician to come and get 'em back :/

Congratulations man! I'm so glad for you. :
And that sucks Flow, 75 bucks for opening a shaft? Terrible!
My friends got busted last night, they had been outside smoking a fatty and when they were walking home they were met by 8-9 cops. All i know is that some of them were fined like 170 bucks, some of them have been busted before so they might have gotten in even worse trouble.
KInd of reminds you to stay ninja about your weed consumption, can be so easy to forget.

Thanks man! I wish I could buy some weed. I know technically I could, but I don't think I'm going to. I want to stay as clean as possible (minus beer and rum) until I'm 100% certain I have my feet firmly planted into this job and stay there permanently.
I know weed supposedly only stays in your system for around 30 days...I just don't want to risk it. I could be taking a medical/piss test sometime within the next 3 months. I don't want to fuck it up and have them spring it on me out of the blue.
I just wish there was a way to ask them, "Ummm...are you guys going to randomly drug screen me any other times?" without sounding like I'm saying, "Listen, I wanna get high and not worry about failing a piss test and losing my job."
Well, not that I should complain too much. I've barely toked at all the past 2 or 3 months. Less than a half-dozen times...which is pretty remarkable considering I used to smoke daily.

congrats, im on completely the opposite end of the spectrum. im currently starting to want to leave my job, i've been working there for about 2 and a half years now, so i think it might be time for a change of scenery. i dont wanna go through a jobless period though, so im gonna have to wait for a job to be advertised then wait until i pass an interview before i decide to quit. i'd maybe be a bum for a little while, would be nice for a change.

Why aren't you making profit? If I pick up a QP I make a minimum of 240 bucks, potentially up to like 1200 bucks profit if its sold all in grams. Usually sell an ounce or two and then quarters and eighths though

one of my buddies is in a similar situation. he sells but makes no real profit. the cause tho is he smokes any weed that could be profit.
your situation sucks significantly more

cleaned my pipe completley today
not one speck of resin was in it, it was lookin purty. ended up with a resin ball a little bigger than a nickle. have been smokin it all day
and its still huge. This pipe is pretty sentimental to me, the guy that made it worked at the local headshop, and i used to buy some extremely good home grown from him, sadly he passed away. Whats also amazing is my sister paid to acually help him make it. I got lucky and my sister has quit smoking (thats not the lucky part) and she gave the pipe to me. it feels meaningful to smoke out of it. cleaned the house and gonna enjoy a nice blaze here shortly

Starting my new job tomorrow!
I'm very excited and a li'l nervous about the whole situation. We've all been there before. Walking into something you're not sure of, feeling stupid for not knowing the ropes, being the new guy that everyone looks at, stuff like that.
The worst part is the transit system for me to bus there. I have to leave my house at 6:15 am to be sure I get there by 8 am...even though it's only a 15-20 minute drive by car.
Luckily, that's only for tomorrow. They want me there at 8 am for orientation and shit. My normal shift starts at 8:30...so I have to leave the house by 6:45 am. Still damn early though!
If things go well, I should have myself a car by mid to late summer!

Congrats Gore!
Went to the Jaguar Gold Club last night and enjoyed myself too much. Drank a bunch of liquor, had strippers hanging on me the whole night, and when some guy tried to take my seat I pushed him and he got kicked out of the club.
Good TimeS!

Man I'm really down...
Three of my best friends from back home came up to visit for the weekend and they just left not long ago. That's not super depressing in and of itself, but their being around made me realize how much I miss my friends and my home. I don't have many friends at all up here, and the ones I do have are not very close. Thank god for my girlfriend and brother or I couldn't stand it. It's weird too...this city is beautiful and amazing to live in, the city I came from is dull, samey and depressing, but oh man I miss the people.
