i really didn’t think i would get more crazy work stories from my brother after he left working at universal….but then he decided to work at an ER. while he hates the job…at least i have good stories about coked out private school kids, and people trying to con a hospital.

updates:

still here in orlando
still about 45% liking my job
job is good…just everyday i think about how i need to be doing something more interesting
my young heart needs to travel
haven’t heard back from 5 takes…only have a few more days until that idea is dead
i’m basically chillin here until i can semi-plan out a crap job somewhere where life would be different

maybe i can find a job working on a crew on a yacht…….i heard a speech from a vp of disney a few years back. he talked about how he dove for pearls for a year when he was younger. his whole speech was about doing something interesting and unique to really learn about life. finding these jobs is the hard part..

so feel free to send some inputs my way

until then i’ll just have to look forward to chipotle friday!!!
wooohoooo

i think one of the part-timers brought it in.

hehehe….just kidding.

while in an office job, your brain begins to die. to keep your brain from doing this, one begins to observe every little insane trait of your coworkers. these things i like to call office ticks. not just because they are tics similar to someone with ocd, but they also bury into your skin and make you want to claw your eyes out……..here’s an example:

my coworker raj….. has a computer tick. usually when i ask him something, he must look it up on his computer. anytime that he is doing anything on his computer he has to go through a small process. before doing anything he must view the desktop, then refresh the desktop. yes…..refresh the desktop, as if a present is going to show up once it’s refreshed. now this alone would not drive me crazy…..but he does this 50 times.

the first time i witnessed him doing this, I thought he just did it on the desktop……oh boy was i wrong. i mean….operation enduring freedom wrong. he refreshes EVERYTHING. constantly.

it’s quite bad. i actually believe that his refreshing of his computer might actually stop him from getting any work done. he highlights something…then refreshes….he opens a folder….refreshes….breathe….refresh.

oh office job

i love drunk people….

i meet up with friends at bennigans…everyone’s drunk…..i have not had a drink in days. i sit down and a girl i have never met starts talking to me…….

girl – ‘hi’
me – ‘hi’
girl – ‘how old are you?’
me – ‘what ?’
girl- ‘how old are you?’
me – ‘why are you asking?
girl – ‘how old are you?
(leaning over and sluring every 1.4 words).
me – ‘how old do you think i am ?’
girl – ‘23…how old do you think i am ?
me – ‘i don’t know…why are you asking me this?’
girl – ‘how old are you ?
me – ‘do you ask everyone this when you first meet them’
girl – ‘you have big teeth’
me – ‘wwhhhhaaaattt ?
girl – ‘you have BIG teeth’
(one of my friends overheard this and her eyes almost pooped out of her head)
me – ‘umm….thanks’
(awkward laughter from everyone)
girl – ‘it must really suck……to go through life with big teeth’
me – ‘what ? are you serious?’
girl – ‘hey….i have chicklette teeth’
(she leans over and points at her teeth)
girl – ‘hey…it’s just a joke….just a joke’

there was another awkward minute and then her and her friends were leaving. she hugged me twice, said ‘it’s just a joke…just a joke’, and then left.
