Another new job...

[nice shirt]

So about 2 1/2 weeks ago I started a new job. I deliver and install vending machines. (snack machines, pop machines, coffee machines etc etc etc.)

The job itself isnt bad, but the guy I work with sucks ass. Hes a hell of a nice guy but a jackass to work with. He wonders off for 10-15 minutes a time, stands around eating and drinking shit from the machines while I bust my ass working... Hes a grown ****in man and I feel like Im baby sitting. I have to follow him around sometimes to make sure hes not ****ing off. I think Im finally going to confront him about it tomorrow. I mentioned this to some co-workers in the warehouse and they got my back. They said if I tell him about his work pace and he dont step up, let them know and theyll take care of shit.

Overall, its not bad. The guy Im working with though is making a decent job, a shitty job. Pay aint bad either, 10$ an hour with raises and its a union job. After 150 days Ill be sworn into the union.

This calls for Mitch Hedburg jokes.

"Vending machines are a big part of my life, I like how when you reach into the vending machine to get your candy that flap goes up, to block you from reaching up. That's a good invention, before that, it was hard times for the vending machine owner. 'Which candy bar are you getting?' 'That one, and EVERY ONE ON THE BOTTOM ROW!'"

"I want to invent a vending machine that sells vending machines, because that would be real ****in' big!"

"I was going to get a candy bar, the button I was supposed to push was HH. I looked at the sign, found the H button and pushed it twice. ****ing, potato chips came out man. Because they had a HH button for christ sakes, you need to let me know. I am not familiar with the concept HH. I did not learn my AA's BB's CC's, god god damnit damnit."

How long was he there before you were hired? They'd probably notice if he was slacking. Sounds a little like he's just taking advantage of you being hired, letting you do all the work and not having anyone know the better.

Anyways, I'm thinking of getting a job at my local Mickey D's. It's within walking distance, so I wouldn't need a car, and I might be able to get a job working weekends or afterschool.

Either that or a local gardening type place that might need some help. I'd rather work outside indefinitely. But my 16th birthday is in December, so I don't think it's legal for me to work until that age, and I wouldn't be able to work outside in the winter.

Tell me about it, I had tickets to see him at the Strand, he died like three weeks before the show.

I got really lucky and saw him a month or so before he died. It was a great show, I'm really glad I went now.

I've always liked:
"I like vending machines, because snacks are better when they fall. If I buy a candy bar at the store oftentimes I will drop it, so that it achieves its maximum flavor potential."

Anyways, good luck with the new job Shirt, hope it works out great.

I'm personally going to an interview for an IT position at my school, and I'm looking into a darkroom attendant position helping people and refilling/mixing developing chemicals in the (duh) darkroom, also here at school. Depending on my schedule if/after i get one of these jobs, I may look for an off-campus job as well.
