I found out last week that the old boss man doesn't have an architecture licence. So the time that I work for him doesn't count toward my Intern development time AKA getting my own licence.

I didn't know you could even work in that field without some sort of license...

Guess I'll just go starting fires wherever I damn well please now.

brooklynbabe:
Oh damn, I'm sorry. He should have told you that before you started working right?

People in LA don't shit.

There are no public rest rooms here.

Come to the promenade enjoy the food and shopping, but take your shit home with you we don't want it!

I think that is why people are so pissed off in there cars. They are in a hurry to get home to the throne after holding it in all day. surreal

Any kind of ham!!!

I was anti-pork there for a few years and ever since I've reneged on that ban my familiy takes every advantage to have it on the table, LOL!

It ended up being spiral cut ham, along with the required turkey of course...

Nap time cometh.
kay:
Thanks love! I'm glad to be back too, truth be told. I hope you had a good turkey day.

I have an apartment. I move in tomorrow. South Robertson in Beverlywood. I share it with a Psychologist. How appropriate, except for the fact that they are usually more nuts than the people they try to help. Could be temporary but it is cheap and all utilities are included. Maybe the distance from the office will help, that and the shower thing. biggrin

Now I need...

Great! No more sleeping in the office for you--

I don't think I would mind rooming with a shrink....it could mean free therapy, whether I'd want it or not though.

Yeah I'm still down in nc, I'll be leaving tomorrow.

I dated a psychologist when I was 23. He was pretty cool. He said I had penis envy though. So, I asked him what it was called when a guy dated girls a lot younger than himself, had a corvette, harley, and wore three earrings. He never answered. Maybe he just didn't hear me. confused Anyway, we didn't date much longer after that.

So yeah, he was pretty cool. He's 50 yrs old now. shocked

This job leaves me feeling sick. Things are so fucked up I cant get anything done. He hasn't said anything but my bosses leers are ever present.. Fuck!

I don't think I am incompetent, but I feel it. Nothing works right. All the software is cracked so no updates for issues. The p3 866 I work on shut off 4 times today spontaneously. If I...

I think shit like that about my job everyday. Then I just put my head down and plow through it.

I have a plan. Stick with it until the day I can tell them to stick it.

One day. One day...

I have this nasty little habit of thinking whats the catch?
I try not to indulge it but it is always present when ever something good happens. I got this job now I know what the catch is. Bait and switch.
We agreed on an hourly wage. 17/ hour ( yes I went to University for this). Not great but livable for a wile. He...

Sounds like a lot like what I'm stuck in, Two steps forward, one step back. The ones that "have it" know they have to give some of it up in order to get work done but they give up as very little as they can get away with.

Wears me down. If I was more of the type of person who was inclined to fuck over other people, I would probably be further ahead than I am now. Sadly, I tend to want to hold onto my self respect...

I'm right with ya if it helps any. My back is plenty sore from those that have stepped on it on their way "up in the world".

This particular nobody continues to root for ya.
taurus:
That kind of bait and switch is so unethical. I mean, do employers realize you still need to pay your rent?

Sound like you are doing the right thing looking for other opportunities. In the meantime, save your receipts, cause the tax write-offs for freelancers are amazing!

For the past few days I have been rebuilding a model for a Biennale in southern Italy. I cant believe the crappy workmanship of this thing. I would fire anyone for producing such crap. Ugh. When it came back from Venice it had exploded in the crate, fell apart is more like it.

I need a dogie hug. I miss my pooches so much. I...

Yeah, some friends of mine lent it to me with the caveat "Don't judge us by this."

I thought "pfft, I'm a denizen of the internet, what could possibly..."

But yeah, now I understand. It's one of the most wonderful things I've ever read. An unstoppable fever dream of true debaucherous lust.

I'm going to try to read it again tomorrow.

I'll definitely be checking out more of his writing now. Thanks for the recommendations!

I am ashamed to admit it but I miss TV. I don't even have speakers on the computers. There isn't much I want to watch it usually ends up on PBS or the history channel.

Sleeping on an air mattress in a crappy office is not the best arrangement, but at least there is a washroom around the corner to take a bird bath in....

Have you been travelling much? Seeing the sights around the city?

I hope you feel better soon. I've been able to escape the grasp of depression for probably the past few months- but I find myself getting increasingly irritated with people around me lately, especially my siblings and it isn't fair since they're just being kids. I need to make some changes soon in regards to my living situation.

Maybe you can try that air mattress that's about 2 or 3 feet high that way you aren't so close to the floor when it's time to go to bed. I find it to be somewhat more comfortable.

I don't know what I'm going to do.
I've had some really great shows of support and friendship lately.

I knew I shouldn't have looked at the pics in the dog group. Now I'm really sad and missing Spaz and Vesta. They have been the only support I have had for a long time and I really miss them.

I bought an air mattress today so I can sleep in the studio where I work. My boss doesnt mind he did the same thing...

Cool, things are looking up for you finally. I slept on an air mattress for months at one point when I had my own apartment.

I'm sorry you couldn't bring the dogs with you there. I had the pleasure of owning a Pomeranian for a few weeks before I had to give him away because my mom doesn't like pets.....I couldn't bring him to ny with me. Even in that short time I had him I still miss him. I can't even imagine how you are feeling.

I hope you get to go to China. I'd like to go to Japan one day- I've been there, but only for a few hours and didn't get to see much so I don't think it counts.
scinge:
Beans? Those are something you eat?

I've been using that word as a cuss replacement. "I'm out of beer... BEANS!"

"Bean you, you bag of beans...."

No wonder no one takes me seriously.

brooklynbabe:
I wrote in your last lournal entry but I guess it didn't go through.

Are you gong to stay in LA until you find work? Or is it just for interviews and then go back home?


I ran away from home once when I was 17, I slept in Central Park one night and spent the next night sleeping on subway cars. I remember the conductor comng up to me like, 'what the hell are you doing? Go home!'

I was the only female in a car full of homeless guys. I was planning on running off to Miami, but I couldn't get cash out of my bank acct for some reason. So I ended up going back home.
