Man.
Employment and you are not friends.

Quitting takes balls.
I hope it all works out
scinge:
Yeah waiting does have it's own perils I admit. "B" is actually my first choice as well, I've been batting around the ideas for a while now.

Once the holidaze pass and things settle down I'm gonna look down that cliff again and see if I can't find the nerve to jump this time smile

How's things on your end, shit starting to pan out yet?

At least you're not knee deep in snow, LOL!

I go see my future Boss on Monday eve. Yea me! Out in Venice.

It has been a wile since I have felt women looking at me or taking notice I should say. It is happening frequently here in LA. Most of the places I have been recently, Texas, Alberta, women look at me like a freak. At least here its in a good way....

Aww c'mon, don't knock it until you tried it!

Just kidding.

Have fun in Venice.
scinge:
How do you know they are gay? Maybe they're just very neighborly!

Really though, even if it is a man who hits you up and even if you're not interested it can be considered a compliment, no?

If you're getting looks from both sides you must really be workin' it smile

and remember, a lot of HOT looking girls have gay man friends! Network it man, network...

I was at a photo shoot all day yesterday in Venice for this house my boss designed. I mentioned to the owner that I met one of there neighbors who is an architect that I interviewed with. They said hew was the reason they live on the canals. They went on to say that he was a very nice and knowledgeable person.

The aforementioned architect...

Definetly look out for self in this situation....that's life.

When my marriage was good, my ex and I were really close and we shared alot of things...I know we were more open with each other than people in most marriages.

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


I am just...

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