schwankity...

so yeah, sitting at work here... rent is paid, checks deposited, just need to get rent money from ze german and everyon is squared away for another month, at least.

i am getting tired of living paycheck to paycheck. every time it looks like i am going to have some savings built up, something else comes up. it is a viscious cycle, having to pay to live, hating work, but needing work to get money. sometimes, it just seems like the whole work thing is a little silly. granted, back in the early civilization days, the specialization of trades, and introduction of currency was one of the greatest achievements, well, ever. but now a days, things cost money. so therefore, everyone needs a job. but there isn't enough shit for people to do. so half the people have worthless jobs, that are just in place so people can have a job, because everyone needs a job, because if you don't have a job, you can't live. therefore, prices of things go up, because you are paying a bunch of money for those people who have unnecessary jobs. thus, the price of living goes up, and the price of these salaries go up, etc etc etc etc. it is painful to think about. i want to be a professional bum. that would rock. either that, or marry for money. any independantly wealthy women out there who are looking for companionship, and don't mind supporting me, give me a call. i don't cost that much to feed, and i don't take up much space. i'll even give you lovin...

i really wish i could get a new job. this one is about to collapse out from under me. i would work retail, but if i am having trouble paying the bills right now, how would i manage on a reduced salary? things add up. it is frightening how quickly things add up. take my mileage for work. i was talking to one of my coworkers about this. this month, i am billing my work for 270 miles. that doesn't include the commute from my house to places. nor does that include the 75 miles i racked up on the van yesterday. those are all the miles i ended up driving in my own car, between jobsites, and then to the office. in fucking sanity.

i should get a new job. actually, i might be getting a new job. it could pay over $20 an hour, but it is back in redmond. i don't want to keep my hopes up too high, in case i don't get it, but that would own. thats twice what i make now. and this places has some testing positions i could work my way up to that pay like $30+ an hour. the thought of that is mindboggling.
