Work work work
Jul. 20th, 2010 02:08 pmLast day of another five day stretch at work. As I've said before, instead of having me work really long shifts two or three days in a row and then giving me three or four days off, they are now working me five or six days in a row, slightly shorter shifts, with one or two days off. I don't know why the shorter shifts feel so much longer than the long ones do but they do. I get two days off tomorrow, although really just one day because I have to work at the 2nd job on Thursday. Mentally it's very taxing. I'm having a hard time focusing on anything after I get home, even simple things reading or WoW. I'm still making myself edit Fool's Game every day but I can only manage a page or two before I completely lose focus. I jammed my fingers at work a few nights ago so playing bass hasn't really been feasible or I'd do that. Music is a great focusing tool, I've found. They're feeling better. By tomorrow night I'm thinking I'll be able to play again.
I plan to enjoy my one day off as much as I can. Hopefully I can get around and get out of the house early enough to catch matinees of both Predators and Inception. Gotta love super cheap movies. A good day off is just what I need to get focused again, I'm hoping.
EDIT:: Forgot to mention the domestic disturbance that played out at work last night! That was my whole reason for opening a post window in the first place. Man, talk about unfocused. Yeah, this couple whom I guess aren't together anymore but have kids together were in there shopping. I didn't hear how it started but apparently the man decided he needed more money than the woman would let him have so he shoved his hand in her pants pocket and she promptly grabbed his wrist to keep him from taking the money out. So they stood there, stooped over, quite literally joined at the hip in this bizarre pants pocket stand-off, arguing over who the money belonged to, surrounded by a ring of employees trying to maintain order. Management gave me the whole "nothing to see here" before the police arrived so I didn't get to see how it arrived. But later in the break room one of the employees who was there till the end said the woman bit the man at one point.
Oy.
