1:48 am	What is with people... I am getting really tired of seeing this as of late. Why do seemingly nice people end up dating assholes? At least once a day I see this in the porn store, far more often on weekends when people come in. One of the two people that come in seem nice, quiet, laid back and such, and their partner is loud, obnoxious, rude and such towards them and everything around them. A good example, some guy is talking to his girlfriend on the phone, calling her a retard, a stupid bitch, an idiot, and a variety of other names. I can't seem to grasp the idea of why someone would want to stay around this. Half the time I just want to go over and slap the people and go 'what the hell? you're in public, at least show some semblance of control and respect." Is there some sort of awesome attraction to those sort of people who are rude, mean, and just generally overall not worth the time to deal with. I've known furs and regular non furs who have done this over and over again. When you point it out to the people, they all say the same thing. "Oh they aren't so bad.." until they have broken up and left them, then they basically go off about how mean and shit headed they were. I swear, it seems that people reward those people who are dicks, mean, abusive and just have no qualms about treating others like crap and worthless scum on the bottom of their shoes. What prompted this little rant, it's just tiring to hear I'm a nice guy, respectful and everything else, but a lot of the time, I just get told that I need to be more forward, or just be a bit more of a prick and I'd have tons of people wanting to be with me. I just can't wrap my head around this kind of concept. I get girls and guys that flirt with me at the store, now granted, most of the time I don't notice but other people around me do and tell me after the fact. Now when I do notice, I just don't have the muster to ask these people, cause of where it is that I'm meeting them. I have a few stupid morals that I stick to no matter what, they have caused me headaches, but I refuse to budge. 1. if I'm spending most of my time worrying what's going on with me, whether it be health wise, job wise, or living conditions and can't focus enough time on someone, I will break up with them. I've hurt two people this way that I'm fairly sure was a big mistake and do feel bad about it. I think about it a lot and what could have happened if I swayed on this. I feel that if I don't have the time to dedicate to myself fully, that it's not fair to someone else that they should suffer cause I can't give them the attention that I think that they should get. I'm fairly certain that both of the people don't read this journal, so they won't even notice it, nor understand it really. 2. I won't mess around with someone in a relationship. I don't care if it's an open relationship, it's just not something that I'm usually comfortable with. This is another one that I've kicked myself in the rump for, cause there have been a number of times I've wanted to do something and I didn't cause of the fact they were in a relationship. It's not going to change anytime soon, so don't see a reason to fix it. 3. I don't lie to people, I find this one very important. I'd rather just keep my mouth shut rather than say something that isn't true. I've gotten into trouble a lot with this one, as it's been an issue of saying what's actually on my mind instead of just biting my tongue and doing the less valorous thing and lying about the issue at hand. I understand that I have some stupid little morals that I've been told that I should have bended on, but it's those things that I hold to myself and keep my standards up to. I see so many times where I probably could have been with someone had I been more forward, or been willing to 'steal' them from the person they were with even if they weren't happy, but that's not something I'd be willing or comfortable doing. Instead of telling me I'm a nice guy, why not just me a favor and be honest, it'd save us far more time and effort. I understand that I'm a supposed catch, you know the rare guy who enjoys cooking, enjoys cleaning(to the point my co-worker says I'm a bit more anal about it than most clean freaks), and I am considerate and willing to listen. It's odd in this day and time to have that happen, but from the way it seems far more often than not, people would rather have someone that is rude, mean and an asshole. (2 Comments |Comment on this)

1:04 am	A few thoughts.. I know I'm fairly bad about posting to my journal, not my usual thing really. Though something today actually made me think, most people never think about the veterans and what they did for us, regardless of what war or what peace time it was. I think that it's a big step for someone who goes in willingly knowing what could happen to them, and for those who have suffered during a war, I just wish to say thank you. I understand that many people don't think that many of the veterans deserve their fates, not the ones who serve now, but it's still the fact they give their time, and sometimes their lives for the country they believe in. Whatever fates belay us in the future, those who have given their time and dedication to the armed forces deserve more than just one day a year to be recognized. Though the time given in silence at the 11th day of the 11th month at the 11th hour is something special. Such a shame that so many of our younger people don't know this tradition or even choose to honor the veterans with the respect I believe that we should show them. (2 Comments |Comment on this)

10:59 pm	A few things. Well I hopefully have a little vacation coming up soon that involves me going splish splash in the lake of Erie. Towards this goal, I'd like to help the people I'd be staying with and I'm offering to do some commissions towards this goal. I'm fairly open to drawing anything really. Prices: 10 - pencils 15 - inks. www.furaffinity.net/user/whitewer that's where ya can find my art if ya wanna consider it. Now for this, I'm going to burn in hell cause I couldn't stop laughing when I looked at it: Current Mood: amused (Comment on this)

5:24 pm	That was odd.. Well that was odd, was at work when two girls came in. I had no idea who they were, but one of them had to be someone I've talked to online. Only reason I know that is cause one of the girls knew my aim screen name. If you're reading my journal, give me a heads up as I'm lost to your name, I'm sorry. I'm really horrible with remembering names to faces. (Comment on this)

12:18 am	Updates and so forth. Anthrocon wasn't too bad this year, will attend next year at least. That will be my 10th anniversary of going there. I've had a lot of great times there, such as the year of the brothel, the years of taking amtrak and getting a posse together on it. Many things that I miss that just don't seem to happen anymore. Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy the convention, but it seems to be missing things that it used to possess. Maybe I'm just getting old and jaded from the sheer size of the convention or something. Third official year as staff, did logistics this year. Wasn't too bad, had more free time to myself considering the last few years. Going to make inquiries about a few things to the con to see if I can get the super sponsor lounge back. Apartment updates, nothing too terribly bad going on, but nothing too good either. Finally got most of my stuff situated in the apartment. Got a toaster today, so can do toast, and frozen waffles and stuff. Yay. The apartment complex was power washing the building so they could do some masonry work, and lo and behold, water leaked through 1 of my many windows. So have to call them about that tomorrow, I'm getting so tired of being on the phone with them about these issues. Figured with a renovated apartment that it would be half way decent. Wrong on that call, and they are terrible about dealing with any problems that I call and bitch about. Hope to start drawing again once I get my art desk setup in my bedroom, that should go well. And if stuff goes well, may be getting a wacom intuos 2 tablet, 12x9" tablet for $150 dollars that's supposed to be in excellent condition. So wish me luck there. Other than that, not too much going on right now, got my new mousepad and it's kinda big. As in, almost size of my keyboard big. The picture is fairly awesome on it though.

2:11 pm	eh, just another day. So another year has gone by, not that big of a deal anymore really. Just kind of wish that I had better luck on my birthday. Was going to go talk to my apartment complex about the issues I've had and demand a credit on my rent, but not in the mood really do that without getting mouthy with them. So I'm putting that off until tomorrow. So that's been irritating dealing with them. Still 2 months since I've looked at the apartment and still have the same broken windows. They told me that they are supposed to be fixed on Friday. So if I come back from anthrocon and they are not fixed, I'm done dealing with them, I'll be filing complaints about the issues I've had to deal with since I moved in. It's past the point of being considerate. Also, when I get to work, gotta call my cable company and see why I didn't get the credit I was told I would get on my bill. So overall, has been rather annoying bit of time. Then to top it off, anthrocon this year will be rather interesting, no room at the hotel, will be trekking back and forth with Akira. I'm grateful that I can make it and go, but at this point, It's getting to be an issue of do I really want to keep going. I may go next year as that will be my 10th year going to anthrocon, but other than that not quite sure. Also going to make a proposal to the Anthrocon stuff about doing a super sponsor suite, but do it for less than what they normally have it done for. Work sucks, that's nothing new. They have suspended any types of raises or such, dropped the 401k to matching 50% of what you put in, not 150% of what you put in. They are asking managers to drop their partners from their insurance. So it's getting to be annoying, then with the whole setup of adding the computers to the store, that's another big headache. We won't be trained on the system until it's in the store. (3 Comments |Comment on this)

1:20 am	An update, and some info. So yes, an update about my situation and what's been going on. Apartment: Everything is good, mostly situated in the apartment, they setup my door answering system. That's kinda neat, you can use it to get a hold of me through my cell phone, then I can buzz you in regardless of where I am. On the downside, they still need to fix my windows, and get my copy of the lease to me. I am getting a bit irritated at the delays on that end. Hopefully should have some nice cabinets and a love seat here soon for a place to sit when people visit. Computer Wise: Somewhat better, got the other system, just gotta get off my lazy rump and put it together, a slight upgrade and will run better than what I'm using now, laptop is still going strong :) Web Ordering: Ugh, this is annoying. There is a site that I use called Deal Extreme, lots of stuff you can order direct from china without having to use a middle man. Been trying to find out why my order hasn't been sent out of the stuff I've ordered for myself, my brother, Alex, and my co-worker. Turns out, for some unknown reason they canceled my order. I'm going to try and get a hold of them on Tuesday to get a reason. It's more irritating cause one of the items was supposed to be for my brother's birthday, so that's on hold now. Alex, I will get a hold of you to work something out for resolving it, Whether it's just letting you order it, or having me re-order it. Job: That's the same, nothing has really changed there, other than now having about a 40-50 minute walk to/from there each day, no more using the bus or anything. Which I'm actually glad for, the bus system here has gone downhill quite a bit. So will try and update when stuff is more situated, maybe give some pictures and what not. Gotta get some new poster frames for my stuff before I hang them up, otherwise not too much else going on. (1 Comment |Comment on this)

3:00 am	Argh.. I hate the bus system here. Now for those people who know me, they understand that I am normally a very patient and understanding person. Now I understand that part of this may have been my fault, but it's still annoying. I currently take the bus to/from work every day cause I'm currently not able to afford car insurance. I have a belief of no insurance = no driving. Call me odd that way. Now I left work tonight and hadn't crossed my mind about the fact my monthly bus pass had expired. So I present it to the rail operator. He told me, even though it showed it was expired it was alright until 4am like most of the passes. So I figure no problem, and get off the rail and get ready to catch my bus. The lady on the bus tells me, "Well that pass is expired." and I tell her what the rail operator had said. She shrugs, laughs and goes, "Well that may have worked on his ride, but I don't do that." She then told me, either to get money or get off the bus. I told her fuck it, and that I was going to walk. It would have been a 6.2 mile walk for me, this was annoying. So the bus pulls off, and I wait for the other bus that comes to the rapid station. They stopped there, and I asked the driver of that bus and he confirmed what the Rapid operator had told me. So I'm going to call and complain, but as with past experience, I know it won't do much good. Also, it is rumored the bus system is going to do away with their weekend service, which makes me glad that my apartment will be close to the work and the grocery store that I will not have to bother using the bus system.

1:50 am	This isn't a nice posting. nahele, going to send out your plush tomorrow, sorry I haven't gotten to it yet, just been busy with work and getting ready to have my own place. Most of this post is going to be considered either rude, or mean by a lot of people. At this point, I don't really care. Now most people understand that I work at an adult book store, a porn store, smut shop, whatever the fuck you want to call it. DO NOT ASSUME SINCE I WORK IN A PORN STORE THAT I AM A SEX CRAZED MANIAC WHO WANTS TO JERK OFF ONTO YOUR BODY WHILE YOU CRY. With that out of the way, I can continue. With working at the store, It's just a job not a big deal, but it seems to be. I message furs and talk to them, it all seems to be going fine till they find out I work in an adult book store, then I get the cold shoulder. If you have that big of a fucking issue with it, why not be respectable enough to come out and say something? Really, does it mean that much that I work somewhere considering that isn't too far from what most people indulge in at some point or another. Also, if I say I'm going to get you a present, don't automatically respond with, "OH MY GOD, DON'T GET ME SOMETHING FROM YOUR JOB", for a rude awakening, I don't get stuff for people from my job unless they ask for it explicitly. I do happen to go to other places, or I can even draw, and I rarely ever draw any adult artwork, ask people who know me. It's gotten to the point where I don't want to do nice things for people I call friends, cause of the assumptions that I get due to my job. When it comes down to it, I rarely watch porn, look at it, or even read it. Let me put this in simple layman's terms: I'M A BIT FUCKING SICK OF PORN, AS I STARE IT AT ABOUT 40-45 HOURS A WEEK, IT GETS OLD. In this economy it's difficult to find a job, I've been looking and have over 2 years at my current job and still have issues finding anything. I'm saving up for an endeavor in the near future that will help me out considerably. Now onto the second subject, I understand that a lot of people have drama in their life, it's understandable. Although to this point, I'm a bit worn out on it with the headache that I just got done dealing with my mother, as it stands, I probably won't see/hear from her in the next few years if ever due to her actions. So yes, everyone deals with it, but if you have a chance to do something about the problems you're having and don't, don't bitch about it. I've made suggestions to multiple people regarding their situations with what information I'm given. Now I've had some people induce drama that didn't need it, so they can deal with it. I hate doing this, as I am a compassionate listener and someone good to vent at. Though, when it's always the same thing and you refuse to do something about it, stop. I'm not here to be your whipping post about the same thing. Yes, I understand I'll probably get some nasty remarks from people, but I don't care anymore. My patience has worn thin, and people who know me understand that there are almost no limits to my patience. Don't have a job, or hate the one you're at? Make a fucking effort to look for one. Even if you don't get an answer, keep looking. Don't bitch that they don't call you back, you call them to check, don't wait for them. Don't like your friends? Get new ones. Same with your living situations, don't like it? Figure out something to do, get an apartment, move in with a friend, move into a efficiency house. It is not difficult, I make jack at my job, do I like it? No. Am I working on doing something about it? Yes. If this post upsets you, fess up and tell me, Don't tell everyone else or keep it bottled up cause I won't know. I'll admit now, I suck at picking up on subtle hints, so fucking come out and say it. I didn't bother to go back and edit what I typed, I usually just see it as a much purer form of expressing one's ideas and such to paper or whatever media they are using. Like normal, my journal isn't screened or anything so you can post whatever comment you want. I don't hold a grudge, even against people who have screwed me over in the past, I don't see any point in holding onto it, as it just gnaws at you and causes unneeded grief.

12:29 am	wheeee more stupid crap, offsets the good stuff even which sucks. So today, get up and do few chores around the house, all excited cause I get to see Transiberian Orchestra live, it was an awesome concert, lots of amazing things and they demonstrated their new setup for us, lots of fire, including walls of it, and more lasers. They put on an amazing show, and finished off the show with Cleveland Rocks! which was an awesome tribute, as I guess we were the first city 10 years ago when they were still getting started that asked them to come perform. They had a few things that were neat, such as the 5 bars that had lights on them, at one point they were moving up and down, kinda like a wave. Would have gotten more pictures, but sadly, I wasn't allowed to borrow the really nice camera for the show, had to use the old camera which did a really poor job of getting pictures. So finally it all ends, heading home and at this point, I'm pondering to either get something downtown since I was there, or just wait till I got home to eat. Figuring there was food at home, decided to wait and not spend any more money, just to find out there is nothing for me. Everyone forgot that I was going out to the Transiberian Orchestra today, so when they went for food, they didn't bother to get me anything so I had to run to the store at 8-8:30 or so to get something for myself for dinner. So that helps my mood to be even worse than it was, and to make it worse, still can't make it out to Thed's to give him his Christmas present for at least another week or two at the earliest. :( (1 Comment |Comment on this)

12:51 am	blah christmas. Figure I should do some sort of update, since the last time, the public bus system here has decided that since diesel was 4 dollars a gallon and they lost their ass helping a corrupt city system build a whole new setup in the downtown area, that their bus riders are the ones who get to suffer wonderfully. Bus Pass: was 63 dollars for monthly, now 73 dollars Bus Route: Completely fucked over. Now I can no longer get a nice short ride home on the bus as the bus I took no longer goes the way I need it to. Let me explain. I used to wait at the bus stop outside work, get on the bus at about 12:25-12:30 or so and get home about 12:55 or so, factoring in traffic, weather, what not. Now, thanks to the bus setup, I pretty much have to run from work up to a main street just under a mile away from work and hope I don't miss my bus. Take that to the hospital and walk about another 1.5 or so miles home. This now gets me home at around 1:30-1:45am, and at that point, I'm tired, cranky, and usually either wet or very cold due to the weather right now. THE WORST FUCKING PART, THE PUBLIC TRANSIT COMPANY HELD MEETINGS THAT WERE PACKED ASKING IF PEOPLE WANTED THESE CHANGES OR IF THEY SHOULD LEAVE THE ROUTES ALONE. PEOPLE TOLD THEM TO LEAVE THE ROUTES ALONE, BUT WWW.GCRTA.ORG HAD ALREADY DECIDED AND WAS HOLDING THE MEETINGS JUST TO MAKE PEOPLE THINK THEIR OPINION MATTERED. God, I fucking hate corporate decisions, and then treating the people who use their service like shit. What is it about Christmas that always seems to get my hopes up, and then regrettably let's me down most of the time. I try my best to get presents for people that they will like, or appreciate. Spend a lot of time doing research for people, checking reviews on products so if someone has a question I can let them know. This year, I had a blah feeling towards the whole thing. I answered questions for people, did the usual but didn't just seem able to get into the whole happy Christmas theme. Probably didn't help that my fucking lazy ass mom isn't doing anything that she was supposed to, which is making everything alot harder on the people in the house. So I get home on Wednesday, check a few things then head to bed, get up on Christmas, and getting rushed around to get stuff done and don't even get a shower due to the fact everyone else is taking theirs, so end up going to work without one which is something that I absolutely hate. So this year for Christmas I get the following: --a toolbox that I was promised by my brother almost 7 months ago. --a Lego trebuchet that I can't even put out because of the cats and the small parts on it that they will play with. --a pair of gloves, to go with the other 2 pairs of winter gloves I own --a 5 ride bus pass that I won't use... I buy monthly passes and that's it, the toolbox won't even get that much use as I got rid of alot of my computer cables and everything else when I went through my stuff cause I was never using the items, so my mouse might go in there, maybe one or two cords, and some memory cards for cameras and such. I don't want to sound like I'm complaining, but the past few years people asked me what I'd like for Christmas and always got the same answer, gift cards for the big and tall store, cause clothes for me are expensive, anything to take off the edge of them would be nice. Now, this year I busted my rump to get good deals on stuff for people, and get the stuff they would really like. Brother: I got him a copy of doctor horrible since he liked the stuff I showed him of it, and a copy of dark knight on blu-ray, nearly every store in our area was sold out of it, or wanted a huge price for it. Sister in Law: Got her a copy of the new harry potter textbook set that was available, since she likes harry potter and such and didn't have those books yet. Everyone else got nicer gifts than I did, I got stuff I'm not going to use, which sucks, I know they meant well, but maybe try asking? I'm supposed to check with them on the gifts I might consider for them so I don't get them something they won't use, but guess I don't get that same respect. Then been getting told since the wedding, 'we owe you big time' for the crap I had to deal with from my mother that night, and it seems to have gone out the window, they got their friend a brand new Ipod Nano 8gig. Yet, I get the cheapest presents, and almost none of which I can even use. :( Then to make it even more fun, I had to work 12 hours today, which was stupid as we made just over 450 dollars for the whole day at the porn store. I had to milk the clock just so I'd get an extra 15 minutes on my time card so I wouldn't be 30 minutes short on my check, for some reason, my manager thought I'd get overtime if I clocked in on time on Wednesday, so I had to clock in 15 minutes late so I'll be using more of my Paid time off to cover the lost time, as it stands, I'm using anywhere from 15 minutes to a half hour a paycheck, which sucks when I only about 1.75 hours of paid time off a week roughly.. I bust my ass this whole time of the year, doing my part to help out and all it ever seems to get me is stress, worn out, and just battered. Then to make it even better, everyone and their mother has taken up the habit of pointing out the huge amount of white that I've got in my hair now, which with the way most people do it, just makes me feel old. Guess I'll shut up ranting for now, doesn't make too much difference really. (5 Comments |Comment on this)

4:10 am	Your result for The Which Ancient Language Are You Test... Akkadian You scored You are Akkadian, a blend of the incomprehensible symbols of the Sumerians with the unwritable sounds of the early Semitic peoples. However, the writing just doesn't suit the words and doesn't represent everything needed, so you end up a schizoid mess. Invented in Babylon, you're probably to blame for that tower story. However, crazy as you are, you're much loved and appreciated, and remain actively in use by records keepers long after schools have switched to other languages.

1:32 am	Some updates... and something I've noticed. Well for an update, some fun things have been going on lately. For the labor day weekend, I ended up going to visit theddy and them with terrence. Got an invitation from dave and such to go to geneva on the lake in ohio here. So said screw it and went along with them, such an amazing time swimming lake erie, hanging out, watching horrible movies and the whatnot. I thought it was an amazing time that I swapped my overtime day with my co-worker so I would have more time to spend there with them. The only downside was that I ended up getting sunburned for the first time in my entire life, it's a new sensation. Overall though, I had such an amazing time, I hope that I can do it again next year with them. Work has been alright, not too much exciting there has been going on, but we do have Pirates: Stagnetti's revenge coming out later this month, so we do have a bunch of halloween/piratey stuff hanging everywhere in the store. We get to wear pirate stuff and such, so I think that will be fun. We've gotten some interesting titles and such like usual at work, so nothing too unusual there. Still wish that some people would least show a bit of respect towards the people that work there, and acknowledge us. Now onto something that I've noticed, not sure why I've noticed it, but for some reason it seems that when people first meet me, that I seem rather odd, offstandish and such to them. Then once they get to know me, seems that I am one of the few people that gets a lot of respect some how. I believe that it's due to the fact that I don't try and hide anything, I'm an open book and have no problems speaking my mind as I believe it's just an easier way to live. Yes, I'm eccentric and odd, but I wouldn't have it any other way. If this bothers some people, they can deal with it, but I'm not going to change for anyone else. (1 Comment |Comment on this)

3:06 am	Well updates and such... Well I figured I should do a few updates here, it's about the time I did one. Going to a wwe event, got a pair of tickets to Unforgiven Pay Per View, not too far from the ring which isn't too bad. Going to it with my co-worker. Hopefully that will be a lot of fun. Turns out that the local bus system is going to be sucking pretty damn hardcore soon if they have their way. They are going to eliminate a lot of the routes, cut out evening service on them, and changing some routes. How does this affect me? Turns out the 75x that they use, they are going to reduce about 50% of it's route, which makes it nearly impossible for me to make it to the rapid station where they want to move it which is about 1/2 mile from work. Then they are also going to change the price of the fare and monthly cards. It's currently 4 dollars for an all day pass, and 63 dollars for a monthly pass. They are upping it up to 5-6 dollars for a daily, and anywhere from 85-95 for a month. If that happens.. I'd end up moving in with my mom to a two bedroom apartment to save money so I could walk to work. I've tossed together a small package for a friend of mine.. hopefully I'll get to drop it off to him at sometime and let him see it and watch his reaction. It's some neat stuff. I gotta do some drawing here, get some new stuff onto paper before I forget to do it. Also, Dave I haven't forgotten about the stuff I owe you. (Comment on this)

12:13 am	so wheee? As it turns out, I am now the proud owner once more of a gateway m275 laptop. My friend who I sold the laptop to a few months ago, let me borrow it for a week or two, and then decides.. 'oh hey.. I never use the thing.. I want my money back' So I'm just going to bite the bullet and give them their money back, so I don't have to deal with the drama, It's a nice laptop I just never really used it when I had it. Most of the time it was just logged onto irc/aim/yahoo and downloading torrents for me. So guess I'll get some more ram for it, a new battery and stuff and use it. Eh, other than that, not too much new stuff going on with me. (Comment on this)

12:49 am	Finally... an Update. Well figured it should try and update a bit more often. Most of the time I just never update this cause nothing super exciting happens in my life. Went to a multi-street yard/garage sale that wasn't too far from where I live. Picked up two opus dolls from bloom county, they are christmas versions. I picked up a copy of Evil dead on dvd for a few dollars. And I picked up a pyrex bread dish that is round, designed for doing french breads and such. Will try it out, seems like a neat thing. Now, I did do a bad purchase today I guess. I have a thing, I love the way that 'tobacco' pipes and water pipes are setup and designed. I don't smoke, and my friends know that I don't, but I love how beautiful or creatively they are made. I picked up a little, and I do mean little water pipe from a store locally called daystar. It's a little bottle, with a rubber stopper and two pipes run into it. I'd love to get some more, not of the one I already have, but more of the more artistic style and design. Oh, and for theddy, I got him a present for face painting that I think he'll enjoy quite a bit. Work has been alright, had two bad shopper reports, mainly dealing with not going out on the floor for one, and the other while having our names on it does not apply to 2nd shift. It's time stamped for when we were getting on shift, so it applies to our first shift people. Now accidentally I started drama at work. I had a customer buy a vhs and then realize it was a vhs tape, he went and got a dvd instead and figuring to save some headache, rung the difference under the same key and made an adjustment for my manager on the daily sheet. Figured, okay, that's done end of story. Noooooo, of course not. One of our first shift people loves to go over the paperwork, double check stuff for everything whether he needs to or not. This has irritated everyone at our job to the point we think he needs to get fucked. So not bothering to check the paperwork, or even wait till he's had a chance to speak with our store manager who didn't bring the issue to my attention, took it upon himself to change inventory listings and wanted to know what was going on. So I decided to be a dick, since he addressed a note to my co-worker and I in a rather condescending manner. I wrote a note, long and rather detailed explaining the whole issue and that the manager didn't bring it to my attention as a problem. Then added, sorry for any confusion on his end of the matter. So, I will find out about it tomorrow when my co-worker goes into work. (Comment on this)

5:44 pm	wheee an update! Well yah it's been a little while since I've bothered to update the journal once again. Well went to anthrocon, and a few other things have gone on since that point. Well anthrocon wasn't too bad, was very busy with being staff for the first time in the first time in 8 years.. I was helping in the super sponsor lounge and it was a bit of a fiasco due to a few issues this year that we were unable to do in the past years. Hopefully we can get this resolved before next year. Got a few things at the convention, not too much stuff though. I wish I had gotten more time to spend with friends, was a bit too hectic and am not going to do that again. Work hasn't been too bad lately, just been working alot to make up from time from going to anthrocon, then everything else that's new. Recently we had inventory, guess we did fairly well. Helped a friend move to a new place she'll be living, it's a nice place, a duplex in a fairly decent neighborhood, not too far away from my friend theddy. They are close to the border of pa, maybe 30 or 40 minutes away, if that. Well that's it for now, hopefully new stuff will happen that I can mention. (Comment on this)
