Tha self proclaimed "World's Greatest" now hates tha summer time... Why U ask? Well tha month of June just isn't my month. I'll start with tha recent events of this month then bring it back to when I was in high school. "I had a good job I thought, but I couldn't get along with tha people in charge... I grabbed my time card punched out I'm off". I actually wish I could say that quote, but it actually didn't happen that way. I started working at tha at&t call center during November of 2007. It all seemed great to me, because I left Target where I was making $8.25 and left for at&t where I was making $11.76... Big salary change right? Well not really... If Target wasn't cutting hours and I was getting my 40 hours a week my check would be around $500. 40 hours a week at tha at&t call center was mandatory and my checks were $700 or a little more. Only a $200 difference... What can I do with $200? Basically nothing with my expensive taste and spending habits. That's enough about my salary, but what this is really about is School and Working... After a few months I didn't like tha job at all and I was ready to quit, but I stayed there a few more months and stuck it out a little. I finally decided to put in my two weeks notice one Tuesday afternoon and my last day would be tha Tuesday after next. Well lets say it didn't quite happen like that, because that week passed by without a problem, but tha next week is where tha problem came in... With that job if U get 12 attendance points U are fired... U get a whole point for missing a whole day of work or if U leave work at a certain time before your shift is over with and so on... U get a .5 if U come in at a certain time or if U leave at a certain before your shift is over and so on... U also get a .25 if you're 5 minutes late or more and so on... Well me being tha good hearted young man that I am picked some people up for work somedays, because they had no transportation and lets say they made me late which made those .25's add up after a while. I left work at some point in time on somedays, because that's just how much I hated it and couldn't deal with it anymore and yeah those .5's added up after a while too. Sometimes I called in for tha whole day and took a whole point. Other times I got whole points for leaving work at a certain before my shift due to some shit with a crazy ass female I was messing with at tha time. Another time I didn't go to work, because this chick I was messing with at tha time had caught a flat tire in Baton Rouge. All of those points added up after a while which all brought me up to 11.5 points... Well one Saturday (tha Saturday before my last full week of work) I really just couldn't handle it anymore, but I was thinking tha time that I was going to leave was only going to be a .25, but hey that was all my fault. If you can add that equals 12 points right? Yep... So that Monday came and nothing happened... I was off of work on tha Tuesday... So tha Wednesday came and I THOUGHT nothing was going to happen, because my manager wasn't at work early in tha day so I'm thinking I may not get fired, because I'm off of work Thursday and Friday using vacation days and I didn't think they would fire anyone on a Saturday and then I was off again on Monday with a vacation day and that Tuesday would be my last day, but I just wouldn't show up that last Tuesday, because I mean I put in my two weeks notice anyway. Well to my surprise my manager showed up later on in tha day right before I went to lunch and said "when U come back from lunch log in and log out". I already knew what was up. After lunch I did what she said and went to her desk to hear that we have a meeting with tha area manager. I don't even have to say tha rest... lets just say that I've been "bamboozled".
I've applied for a job everyday and still basically no feedback at all. I've been sitting in this house for a month. I didn't tell my mom I was fired and once she found out due to at&t sending a paper in tha mail she was furious due to me not telling her about it. She took my car keys... People that's really why I haven't been going anywhere at all lately, because I'm in this house almost 24/7 unless someone comes get me...
On tha lighter side of things... I am starting Pharmacy Technician school at Unitech Training Academy on tha 21st of this month. I'll be taking tha courses for a year and then i'll be a Pharmacy Technician working in some Pharmacy and/or etc. Sounds good right? Well that isn't so good either, because once I graduated from high school in May of 2007 I wasn't accepted at UL and I had to apply by committee after that and I still wasn't accepted so I decided to not go to school for tha fall of 2007 and just work. I decided to go to school during tha spring of 2008 at a Community College, but due to tha crazy job that I was talking about earlier I was only to take one class that would take place on Monday and Wednesday nights, because tha call centers work schedule was a full time mandatory schedule with no if, ands, and buts about it... Well tha class didn't work out too well for me and I then made tha dumbest decision I have ever made in my 19 years... I didn't go to school on tha day of my final. Why? I honestly still cannot even answer that question myself. So with that being said once I do get accepted into a University I will be about 2 years or a lil more behind in school which is really not all that good, but at least I'm still going to school and still going to be able to do what I planned with my life, but I'll just be graduating after all my colleagues from tha high school Class of 2007...
And top it all off... I now have Insomnia due to heavy stress and depression... Lets just say I'm not doing too well... - ...Tha Worlds Greatest...
