Dreams

Man, I just had a really really awful dream. It's one of those ones where you're like, Ok, I really don't want to go back to sleep right now because it freaked me out so bad. Yeah.. fun. Just thought I would share.

Citizen's Skank

Ok... so as many of you know, I am in the process of looking for new job. I went on an interview yesterday at Citizen's Bank, and due to the fact that it was a complete waste of my time, I thought I would share my experience with you! ARE YOU EXCITED??!! I know you are. It's ok to admit it.

Mind you, the entire interview took maybe 10 minutes. So, I get there about 10 minutes early, out of respect. It's just good manners. So my new buddy Jaff (yes, his name was Jaff) calls me in and I sit down. He is holding my papers and he immediately says to me: "I have a bunch of applicants, so I need to refresh my memory as to who you are." Being the polite person I am, I say "oh of course, by all means take your time."

Maybe I shouldn't have said that. He sat there for 5 minutes looking through papers and saying nothing... do I need to remind you that the entire interview took 10 minutes? So finally, he says "oh you're the art student" I'm thinking.. "art student?" I didn't really verbally acknowledge it, so he says "is that right" and I said "well, I study media" and he said, "yeah but you have an arts degree." OH YEAH... I FORGOT... I AM AN ART STUDENT BECAUSE I HAVE A BACHELOR OF ARTS!! STUPID ME!

Then he says to me "so why do you want to be a teller, you dont have any experience." (Mind you.. it was very nasty the way he said it.) So I of course, being poor and just needing a job, gave some cock eyed answer that would shmooze over anybody. He then proceeds to tell me about the position. This is what he said (i am not paraphrasing at all here) "So, the job is a 38 hour week. (looking through papers more) Yup, 38 hour week. Some days you'll work till 3:15, some till 4:30, some till 5:30, but its 38 hours." THAT'S IT!!!!! I kid you not. Then he proceeds to say "yeah, so i have a ton of applicants, and i'lll probably hire someone by the end of the next week. You can take my card if you have any questions, and i'll let you know."

So, being a responsible adult, I say "well, I have a couple of questions now, if that's ok." I proceed to ask about benefits, he answers and then I ask him about pay. He tells me "We haven't decided on that yet." WHAT!!!!!!!!!! YOU'RE GOING TO SERIOUSLY TELL ME THAT YOU'RE GOING TO HOLD INTERVIEWS FOR A JOB AND YOU'RE NOT GOING TO TELL THE PEOPLE WHAT YOU'RE OFFERING!!! What a joke.

So I left, and thought to myself "yeah you'll never see me again." It was rediculous. No, it was more than rediculous... it was REDONKULOUS!! So kids... this girl aint going to be a Citizen's Skank... No Sir ree!!!

That's my story!

YUCK

I would just like to state for the record... I don't like this whole having to be home alone while Brie works... :-( my lonely... someone come visit me!!!!

TAKE THESE BROKEN WINGS....

Don't ask me why that's my blog title. It's playing now on my iTunes library. So, it's been a while since I've properly blogged, so I figured what a better time than now. Brie started work a week early, I'm kind of tired of playing Grand Theft Auto Vice City (you can only pick up so many hookers and beat them up before you need a break), and the cat not wanting to play with my anymore... not to mention that there is NOTHING on TV!!!

So how is everyone? Doing well I hope. Although, I dont know how well because it seems like almost everyone I know is out of a job right now. This economy SUCKS.

~~ Musical Interlude~~

BUT YA HESITATING, DEBATIN WHETHER OR NOT ITS REAL
I AINT STRICTLY GAME BOO I'M JUST TELLING YOU HOW I FEEL
I DIG EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU, YOUR HIPS AND THE WAY THEY SWAY
I HATE TO SEE YOU LEAVE BOO, BUT LOVE TO SEE YOU WALK AWAY

(great song... anyone know what it is?!??!!)

Anyway, So I went on this interview today... yay for me... Supposedly I have another company calling me to set up an interview... double yay for me... and all the while, I'm sitting here thinking... ok, so if I try driving the boat toward the right, I can maybe beat the other boats to the yacht to pick up the drugs for Diaz and get my 10Gs... I loooooooovveeee GTA: Vice City.

That's off topic yet again... actually, I dont know that this blog has a topic to begin with. Aside from that, I want to take a quick minute to say MUCHOS GRACIAS to all my wonderful friends who have been extremely supportive and wonderful to us lately. It's nice to have friends that won't turn their back on you when you're going through some heavy shit. Who don't expect you to be baloons, roses and jokes 24/7. MY FRIENDS ARE GREAT!

On that note, I have to go pick up Brie Brie from work. You all have a wonderful night.

Later kids!

YET ANOTHER REASON WHY THE YANKEES SUCK!

Ok... so I've always been one to stand my ground when it came down to the no good dirty rotten suck ass Yankees... It's for stunts like this why I do...

#1 reason why the Yankees suck... Steinbrenner...

This article was lifted off an article on AOL. I thought I would just cut and paste it so that all you non-AOLers can read it. It goes a little something like this:

Once Again, Steinbrenner Has Outdone Himself
With Hurricane on Tampa's Doorstep, Yankees Owner Calls for Forfeit
By RICHARD JUSTICE, AOL Exclusive

If George Steinbrenner didn't exist, someone would have to make him up. Come to think of it, maybe he IS that clueless blowhard character on Seinfeld. Maybe he really doesn't exist.

Because no one could be so clueless. No one could be so out of touch.

You've heard stories about how he berates employees, bullies them, embarrasses them.

You've watched him throw millions at some free-agent player, then turn on the guy after a couple of bad games.

One time he ordered a public-relations man to issue a press release criticizing Dave Winfield.

While the release was being passed out, Winfield hit a home run.

No problem there. Steinbrenner ordered the public-relations man to cancel the statement even though some of them had already been handed out.

You've watched him run the greatest sports franchise in history with a mixed history. Sometimes, he bathes it in the glory that comes with another championship. Sometimes, he makes every card-carrying Yankee fan ashamed.

Over the weekend, he outdid himself.

He embarrassed the Yankees again.

Steinbrenner had the gall to send his mouthpiece, Randy Levine, out to wonder why the Tampa Bay Devil Rays hadn't been forced to forfeit a Monday game against the Yankees.

The Devil Rays delayed their trip to New York because players were worried about leaving their families during Hurricane Frances.

That decision would seem reasonable, but there was one problem.

It inconvenienced the Yankees.

Their scheduled doubleheader with the Devil Rays didn't start on time, and they ended up just playing one game.

Oh my.

Rather than announce another doubleheader had been scheduled for Monday or Tuesday, the Yankees asked for a forfeit.

They couldn't have looked more foolish.

Have the Boston Red Sox gotten into their heads or what?

First, a once commanding lead in the American League East melts to almost nothing. Then their No. 1 starting pitcher, Kevin Brown, punches a wall and breaks his hand, effectively ending his season.

Instead of keeping their eye on the ball, the Yankees begged for a forfeit against one of baseball's worst teams.

Kind of sad, isn't it?

Devil Rays manager Lou Piniella, who has been on the receiving end of a few of Steinbrenner's eruptions, reacted predictably when told that the Yankees wanted a forfeit.

"Look, let me tell you this,'' he said angrily. "I think, when you look at baseball, it's important, but your family is doubly important or triply important, and when a hurricane is beating down on the Florida coast, 60, 70, 80 miles from your hometown, I think you take care of your families first and you worry about the ballgame second.

"I know the Yankees are in a pennant race, but I also know that our kids [players] are young and have a lot of young kids at home. There was flooding, there are a lot of things that occurred over a two-day period in Florida and I think everybody was more comfortable being with their family than being in New York, waiting to play a baseball game.''

If I'm the Boston Red Sox and I'm reading all of this, I'm thinking, "We've got 'em. They're toast.''

They're locked in a terrific race for the National League wild-card berth. And what are they worried about?

Their television announcers.

The Astros? Nope. The Marlins? Uh, no.

Their concern is Chip Caray and Steve Stone.

The most recent incident occurred on an Aug. 29 flight to Montreal when reliever Kent Mercker yelled at Stone in front of his teammate.

Mercker earlier called the press box to complain that Caray was being overly complimentary of Astros righthander Roy Oswalt.

He was following the lead of outfielder Moises Alou, who said the announcers were "negative.''

Infielder Todd Walker went on a Chicago radio station to say the situation wouldn't be so bad "if we didn't have to be on the plane with them, if we didn't have to be on the bus with them, if we didn't have to be around them constantly. It all seems like they're more for the other team than they are for us, and we consider them a part of our team.''
More on This Story

If you're wondering where Cubs manager Dusty Baker is in all of this, keep wondering. Instead of reminding his players to concentrate on the important stuff, he's fueling this dumb fire.

"I always want my guys to control themselves as professionals, not doing anything to embarrass themselves, their families or their organizations,'' he said. "But it's a transformation maybe the Cubs are going through sort of, too, from lovable losers to guys that have some spunk and some fire about them.''
