So by the looks of it I'll have a job in a sporting goods place by next week. It starts out as a part time job but they were asking me to go to full time if the spot opens up. Looks like I know how to work the system, hehe. But yeah, this is going to be my first job in retail, so I'm pretty psyched about it. I am a people person and this will be a great opportunity to get to know people and gain some cultural insight into sporting goods, and who knows, I may learn that I enjoy hunting and phishing, I mean fishing. ;)

Well, I have a few more interviews to go then I may be in scorecity with this job. But anyways, I gotta cut this short.

Jammin' out.

Mmk so, I'm a bit frustrated today because I went over to a friend's place last night and forgot my charger so I wasn't able to keep in contact with certain people. I have learned that no matter what whenever I go somewhere I always forget at least one item, whether at home or at the place I stay. I think I need to take some memory boosting pills or something for short-term memory loss, or maybe I need to get back on ritalin..... don't think it'll get to that point, but it is still a point of frustration.

Also something that is pressing on my heart and mind is digital photo-manipulation. Basically that's a fancy pants way of saying editing photos. What I'm gonna start is ask people what super power they would want if they were to have one, then get a picture of them and put that image to work. Say someone wants like fire ability I could make it so that their arm is engulfed with flame and it is shooting outward. Or they want to be walking through walls, that can be done, even flying.... but I think that would be a great idea to start a photo studio that does "comic-con". I think I'm gonna start that now... I have a camera available to me right now, so that's a start, anyone that wants to be a part of that, just get in contact with me. I'll post more thoughts later, maybe even go into more depth on the photos thought train. Who knows.

Jammin' out.

Work part 1

Ugh, as soon as i enter the vicinity of one of my family members, it becomes all about work and stress. Not even the good work either, work that "after a hard days work deserves a cold soda". I get out of the van and immediately get to work in the yard building a bird feeder with my mom.

I complain because last night was the first night I'd slept in about 48 to 72 hours slept decently that is.... I've been getting only about 2-3 hours each night after a full day's worth of work. Don't get me wrong, I love helping people but when it starts affecting my health, that's kinda where I tend to draw the line. Speaking of sleep schedules, I really need to get mine in check. I need to start waking up at 630 or 7 instead of going to bed at that time. I think that will start from me going to sleep at 11, considering I usually wake up at 1030ish when I sleep at 3. The reason I need to rework the circadian rhythm in my body is simply put, work isn't showing up for me. So, with that said I'm gonna work at fixing that so that I am able to put down an earlier availability.

Back to the topic of work, I'm still on the hunt for a job. That isn't going so well. Everyone that SAYS they are hiring pretty much isn't. I've tried 10 different places in the past week, need to call them tomorrow and "check the status of my application". I'm just so sick of not having money and not being able to help others financially and being completely financially dependent on my parents. For now, that is all I can do.

Facebook

H'ok so, I finally broke and started a blog. Let's see if this relieves as much stress as people seem to say. Well as the title says, this entry is about Facebook and my frustrations with it and the apathy toward user input and preferences. We'll start there and see where it goes from there.

Mmk so, lets start with the most prominent issue I have with Facebook's attempt at making things "easier", the News Feed. I am CONSTANTLY spammed with "this person joined this group" "that person is a fan of that", and I mean at first it was alright because it wasn't TOO overly intrusive, just moderately intrusive and irksome. Now it's literally every. other. post. I have to wade my way through MY OWN FEED in order to see the things I actually want to see. This is not how it should be, it should be simple, sleek, and to the point.

The whole reason I left the Myspace scene is because the only thing that I saw on my "feed" was forwards and just regurgitated crap from others that it was near mindless to post for them. Now I'm seeing the exact same thing in Facebook, but to a much larger degree. Sure the people I talk to on a regular basis don't NORMALLY join groups willy nilly, but it's getting there. It's so frustrating because when I initially joined Facebook, it was a great idea, but now they are abusing their power over the people and introducing stupid features that I could care less about.

My next contention is the applications. Every time I log onto Facebook, I have at LEAST 3 invites to the same application that I will never use, I've blocked I don't know how many applications, and they keep coming out with more ways to annoy me. I really do not like applications at all, they take information from your profile with the mindset "Oh, they gave me permission because they have it posted on their page". No. I have my rights as a user. If Facebook keeps up these annoyances, I am seriously considering leaving the whole scene.

For now, I'm gonna find a way to contact support and give them some.... directional insight. That's about all I am able to do, I'll blog later.

Jammin out.
