I finally found something interesting to type about. Even though I didn't have any more sleep than last time I blogged, I figured it was important enough to blog about.

As a bunch of you have already heard there's trouble a brewin at namao blockbuster. Let's just say that a big ugly sea monster named Lisa attacked the ship and it's crew, and everyone's abandoning ship to evade further disaster. So as a result, I figured out that I'm gonna need a new job for the summer (what else is new).

Believe it or not, this is like the 3rd time that I've had to get a job over the summer time because I hated my previous job, so maybe 3's a charm! Anyhow, I've come up with a list of reasons why I plan on quitting blockbuster for all of those non-believers that think that I'm just whining over something small:

1) Crappy management: I mean seriously, the girl has had the entire staff of 2 different blockbusters quit on her at the same time! Can SOMEONE plz fire her?!

2) Piss-poor wage: The last time I checked, I had heard the rumor that you're supposed to make MORE money if you get a good education than if you drop out of high school. Somehow, that rule doesn't seem to exist seeing as I make 7 bucks even at Blockbuster, while my dropout friend Jeff makes over 10 bucks an hour. I know that they mean when someone finishes their education, but you get my point. And the 7 was with a recent raise to all employees of blockbuster too! Now that's sad.

3) No one cool working there anymore: After the tyranny of Lisa, I'm convinced she's gonna have her 3rd blockbuster staff quit on her. Big surprise. Anyway, enough said.

4) Dumbass store changes: Here's something I don't understand. We have one of the best stores in Canada when it comes to volume/anti-theft. Our staff has proven time and time again that they are loyal to the store. Oh hey! Sounds like we should implement some real fucked up changes to this garbage store!! Good one Lisa, idiot....

5) Barely any chance of me getting full-time hours during summer: Now its totally tempting to spend my entire summer sitting on my fatass and getting nothing accomplished, I'll be the first to admit that. But honestly, we're 18 yrs old now, if you actually plan on doing that during this summer, that's sick and disturbing. Take some summer courses, or maybe learn a new skill, or SOMETHING! In my case, it's getting a full-time job. If you're 18 and you've never worked at a single job before, take the penalty...

With that said, I've been considering some job options. It actually all pisses me off to tell you the truth. The fact that blockbuster was such a sweet ass easy job, and one person can ruin it all..... Man is it gonna be hard to find a job as sweet as that. But I do have my ideas:

- photo finishing at Walmart/Save-On/Superstore/Japan Camera/Black's
- retail at Futureshop/Fido/Telus/Wireless Wave
- a server at a coffee place like second cup

Anyhow those are my main ideas of jobs that could be easy and fun. Though Tom tells me that he'll prolly be able to get me a job at People's Jewellers. Still debating on that one, is it really time for me to get professional? I'd like some insight or some suggestions on jobs I should apply for. Thanks.
