Well , my Labor Day weekend is just about over, and Labor day equals the unofficial end of summer. Didn't really do too much this weekend besides this meet up in dublin last night. Actually the pretty much sums up most of my summer, didn't really do too much. Sure it had its highlights, but I didn't really get to do some of the things I wanted.

Works been busy since my coworker mikey is back to part time since he has school, so i am pretty swamped with orders. At least its not as stressful since the owner went back to China. I mean the work keeps me pretty busy throughout the work day, but it gets kinda lonely. It would be nice to have some social interaction in my life.

Other than work i really don't too much, I find myself drinking beer and playing xbox on my weekends. Sometimes the kids join me in my drinking binges, sometimes they don't. I think i should cut down on my caffeine and alcohol consumption. The caffeine keeps me awake when i need it , and the alcohol puts me to sleep.

I think i should get the ball rolling on the ef again. At least it keeps me busy and gives me something to do.

found this pic online thought it was an interesting outlook on most peoples lives.

Well today was quite weird from what i would call the "normal" work day. Soon as i got there, the owners called a meetings with my boss.They were in the office for like an hour, i just went upon my normal duties, packing orders. Bosses came out later, and they looked like they were stressin. Told us about new policies that would go into effect concerning me and my cowoker. Nothing to major. But boss told me the owner was complaining about us, that we like "mess around" too much and shit. Hey I say as long as we get the work done and on time, then who cares? Its our way of blowing off steam, it keeps me sane. And you know how i am, if i keep it bottled up inside, i explode in rage.. Anyways the normal getting chewed out.. just makes us a tad bit disgruntled. They even talked about getting rid of us, and replacing us with people from an unemployment agency, but our bosses defended us. That kinda made me feel better though.

So that was the bullshit in the morning, but come lunch time, the owner busts out the grill. Apparently he is throwing a bbq for us for lunch, for everyone. It was a big change for us, we are used to him chewing us out all day, but today he seemed almost human? He even made some bombass pork ribs.. and he even sent us out to get some coronas. So here we are on like a two hour lunch, eating bbq and kicking back some brews.

Got back to orders , and finished up early around 4pm, and the wife of the owner said we can leave after we put the orders on the dock for ups. Quite strange.. i'm like whats with them being all nice? Maybe we are all getting canned? It left me questioning everything.. Perhaps everyone is turning a new leaf, maybe they are human afterall? Reminds me of this quote "Find the best in everybody. Just keep waiting no matter how long it takes. No one is all evil. Everybody has a good side, just keep waiting, it will come out."- Randy Pausch

So Today in a long time i had a pretty good day at work. And tomorrow gonna go get messed up and rock out to Linkin Park at the Project Revolution tour. Rock on baby, rock on.

-Peace

Me and coworkers kicking it back... don't mind mikey, he was quite buzzed.

You tell me why starting at 5am, i get stupid ass Hannah Montana wakeup calls every fucking 30 minutes.. I swear the whole fucking world wants to fuck me over, like it doesn't help that I don't get much sleep in the first place, now that got cut to like 3 hours of sleep.

Do people like pissing me off or something? I work full time, and try to help everyone that i can. I try to build bridges with people, and just try to live a good life, but everyone and everything likes to try to screw me over... I try to be the best person i can, but obviously that isn't good enough.

Its 7 now, might as well get ready for work.. another day of the owner making me do his bitch work.. I just need this week to end.

Since you bothered to read all my ranting, i will share some pics i took this week.
