12 Hours + Pitying Look = Wise Cleaner

There s times I think I am not secure in my job. Then as I am listening to the cleaner, who by the way has a very cool leg tattoo, I doubt that they will get rid of the wanker, sorry “committed worker”, who works from 7am to 9pm.

I don’t do this for the money. I do run several projects and as I go to uni three days a week I only end up with two full days of work. This is fantastic for my bank account and the person in me that thrives in that environment. However the horrid thing is my work has given me a full time employee role. I love my job. I love the people and the environment. But due my crappy university schedule this semester I lose a day, just not the workload. This means to fit my usual 3 day week into a 2 day week I have to do 12 to 13 hour days. Sounds plausible. Sounds even amusing.

I just get pissed when my bosses bitch I work too long or am not a normal worker. I really am working what I worked two months ago it’s just in smaller portions. I still get my job done. I still meet deadlines, chase debt and perform payment processing. I just do it in 12 hours instead of 12 hour. They just haven’t worked out that it’s the same amount of hours in a condensed version.

It’s great job really. I’ve learnt some great things, developed a work ethic and met some amazing people. It’s a fantastic job to support me through university and provide me with great work experience. It’s all dandy until the cleaner gives you this pitying you have no life look and politely asks you when you are going to leave so he can.

That’s when you know you’ve been at work too long!

Green Ninja

I thought they were meant to be secretive, and never be seen. Today I saw three of them, they were on scooters so I assume the other mode of transport has been cut back, you know with the green house emissions, credit crisis and interest rate rises the previous years.

Still, whatever they are doing at least they are carbon neutral. I assume they have some kinda carbon credit system for the uniforms to be manufactured, along with the helmets remember.. safety first.

You might need to click on the photos and open them full screen to be able to see them properly. They are quick and agile (like a cat), lucky the iPhone is also quick and agile and I could capture them. Like I mentioned last time, el Señor Jobs (steve jobs, CEO of Apple) needs this kind of equipment to catch the defectors.

Some people amuse me.

"Aaaaaaaaaaah!  I'm a retard!"

"Alright, I'll talk to you when I get home.  Love you too.  Wait, why did I just say 'love you too', when you didn't even say 'I love you'?  WTF!'

There was something else really, really hilarious, but I can't remember it now.  It happened somewhere between Jaz's posters/UQ Lakes (Pond!  God that was hilarious.) and "Aaaaaaaah!  I'm a retard!"  

What was it?  I was sooo close to quoting it until she said "Aaaaaah!  I'm a retard!"  DAMN YOU, WIFFALO!
