Had a great weekend in London. It's only just now that I'm motivated enough to do a journal entry for it since I got home so late yesterday.

It's strange how well I find myself getting on with people that I don't know all that well. I really need to try and make it to more meets. I'm also quite chuffed at my ninja skills,...

Awww, maybe working at a games shop isn't the idyllic wonderland I dreamed it to be. Although to be honest, I daydreamed that it would be sitting around playing games all day whilst being dismissive of customers, much in the same way that I imagined working at HMV would be exactly like Empire Records.

I am in the most amazing mood ever. All the stress of the past week or so has fallen away, possibly having been reflected onto some rotten shit with a girlfriend he doesnt deserve. I dunno. The point is I'm happy.

So happy infact that when I was asked "Any chance you can postpone your holiday by a day?" I said fine. I'm convinced I'll...

The son of a bitch never showed up. I honestly didn't know whether to laugh or cry. On the one hand I was happy that he didn't show up because I hate getting visits from the higher-ups. I know its all in the name of improvement but a lot of the time I'm convinced they look for things to whinge about, even if it means...

I reckon they should congratulate you on a job well done. Ran the place for the week and nothing got burnt down, there were no deaths and the shops still standing. Successful week if you ask me. You should ask for more money.
mat8drb:
You've got to make sure your staff keep the place proper now, fingers crossed.

London will be fun.

I feel like complete shit, and I fear that even flushing a massive cake won't lift my spirits.

The cockery of the guys in Gamestation HR has come back to bite somebody on the ass, and that somebody is me. For the past 2 months I've been a staff member down, so while I used to get by quite easily, sometimes giving people jobs that...

if you've not watched it then I recomend Oz, as after that a cat being killed will seem like nothing
johnnyforeigner:
Pfft. maybe that particular song had a special significance? Maybe it was selected especially due to an event in real life? Didn't think of that, did you?

It wasn't, but you didn't know that tongue

Amazing how it lifts one's spirits, flushing a cake

Wait, I'm confused... did you say cleans AND straightens? shocked

To be fair, I've been so out of games lately I'd just been being surprised how it was sold out everywhere until I was invited to this party. I thought it would be a great addition (and he's only getting the Wii that day so I know he doesn't have it) so I went looking... and discovered the shocking truth.
You should have bought them all and put them on ebay, people are paying 45-50 for them. The spastics. wink

Face it, you can't survive without me. I may be a maverick, a loose cannon, a man on the edge who plays by his own rules but dammit I get results and that's what you need tongue

Do you mind? I'm tryin' to eat my lunch tongue

I've done pretty much fuck all lately.

Strung Out were awesome live, as expected. Annoyingly they have a pretty big back catalogue so there's always a couple of songs you wish they'd played. Savant for one, or Razor Sex frown

I ordered a new guitar not too long ago because the one I have is fucked. Its kinda hard to learn on given that it falls...

You want to see this movie. Rachel Leigh Cook goodness.

A fortnight? Argh.

Good luck on getting someone. That sounds like a perfectly sensible recruitment practice to me. Girls in a gaming shop can be a double edged sword though.

Holy shit it's been nearly 3 weeks. What is probably most depressing is that I still have fuck all to put here.

Work is still kinda annoying but I've settled into a comfortable groove. Mark managed to drive out one of the other sales assistants by talking down to him all the time and generally being a dick. Instead of, I dunno....mentioning this to somebody,...

Are we really gonna go back to calling each other homosexuals on message boards?

I have kicked Timesplitters onto easy mode, it is now far more enjoyable.

I convinced another person to join SG

Everybody go and say hello to Marty993 one of my friends from real life and a fellow resident of "Heartbeat"

He's a poor yokel like me, so please be gentle
