So, yeah.... about that.

So remember what I said about trying to keep a blog steady? Well, that lasted two fucking posts. Granted, re-reading them a year and a half later brought on a few chuckles, but needless to say, it was a short-lived experience. Can I do better? We'll see about that. Maybe with the proper motivation, I can keep things going for longer. I used to rant about petty, nonsensical irritants at my toy store. Well, the place went under along with the whole company. Apparently we were running the world's largest toy rummage sale, since we were left with all the bullshit toys that none of the other major retailers wanted. Why were we carrying Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer toys in 2009? The fuck, dude, the fuck?
So yeah, things are a bit different now. I've moved up to bigger and better things. I work in an electronic entertainment store now. Same asshole customers, different product. I mean, quite literally the same customers, because it's in the same shopping centre. Same pay, too, which is good, but now I'm hourly rather than salary, and get time-and-a-half for hours past 40. It's also a much smaller store, which means my stress level is much lower.
But, I'm rambling now. I can tell you more later. Let's see what we can do here.
