We're Havin' Ravioli: The Amazingly True Tale of What I Have Been Up to This Past Month, for Anyone Who May Have Been Wondering
I was looking for a new job, ya see. Like it isn't hard enough to find a job in this economy, I had to do it with the added pressure of my 13 year old godson moving in temporarily. Yeah, i know I'm too young to have a godson that old, but I'm a replacement godfather. Think of me as the head cappo for you mafia-knowledgable folks out there. The big man died, so I moved up to look after the family. the family being a brat of a kid that I'm desperately trying to shape into a semi-cool teenager. Anyways, I had been looking since January of this year if that tells you anything about what the Austin job market is like at the moment. It's sad, we have the highest-educated Bartenders and cab drivers in the world (you'd thing someone with a PhD could get me to Sixth St without missing his damned exit, though). Finally, last month (a week before we were all getting laid off at Gallup, the soul-suckers I previously worked for) I got hired at AT&T Wireless, the greatest mobile phone service in the world (greatest because they employ me and let me where what i want, because I don't know shit about cellphones). I've been in training there the past four weeks, and on Monday I take my first calls from live customers. it's a little nervewracking, but I'm confident I'll do a respectable job. Plus, with time comes experience, so I'll be a pro before too long. Still, it's nerve wracking as trying to tell a girl you think it would be interesting if she'd shave her pubes. (Edotor's Note: He likes girls with pubes as much as he likes girls without 'em. he just likes variety).
Anyways, that's why I haven't had much time to devote to my favorite website. It looks like things will be calming down over the next month, though, so hopefully I can go back to amusing the couple of you I've entertained. See you then!
(For anyone curious about that Ravioli bit, I've had that Chef Boyardee commercial jingle in my head this entire month. It has become a part of my soul now. Hot and hearty, fun to eat...)
