Out of Control
Apr. 18th, 2012 08:37 pmThis part-time temp job thing has gotten out of control. I'm working in three different offices for a total of 44 hours per week for the next 7 weeks. (I know, plenty of other people regularly have to work 50 - 60+ hours at their ordinary single job, and some of them don't even like the job, and many of them have children and pets who need them. They win on the suckiness. Still, I'll be glad when I get back to 20 - 40 hours per week.)
Interestingly, the computer situation has been a little wacky in all three places. In one job, they updated Windows a couple weeks after I started, in one job they replaced the computer at the end of my second day, and in one job they have to check out a laptop for me to use when I come over.
Cake of the Day
Someone at workplace #1 harvested more carrots from his yard than he could eat in salads, so he made a carrot cake and brought a huge container of pieces to share with us at work. Awesome!
Can you imagine someone at working saying, "Oh, I made a cake and it's just too big for me to eat it all myself" and then they whip this out?

Comes with its own knife.
I suspect this guy's armor is not very protective. (Well, it probably protects his or her identity perfectly.)
Video of the Day
It's a house that's less than 600 square feet and broken up into three separate stories. And yet I love it. It's beautiful, interesting, and hilarious all at the same time.
