Work is boring shit.

I'm getting fired from the bookstore. After five years, I'm getting fired because my boss thinks it would be good for me to go do something else.

I'm not really that worked up about it. It's bullshit and stupid, sure, but she really thinks she's doing me a favor, so I can't be mad with her. I think a bigger favor would be to, oh, I don't know, maybe pay me more money, like what I made when I started there (somehow, I went down in payscale over the last few years, rather than up), or to maybe give me more hours or something, so that I don't have to work three jobs just to be able to keep my truck running.

All that said, I don't really give a fuck if I'm fired. I don't really give a fuck if I don't have an insured truck, either. Even out of gas, I can still relax in it and smoke up, and really, the only reason I need a vehical at all is to come into town and go to work. Remove the work, and I can happily sit at home and relax. There's an advantage to disliking most of your friends - you don't feel any really urgent need to go see them, so I don't really need a car of my own for that, either.

Besides, if I'm really so inclined, I still have this boring ass job at the mall. It sucks, sure, but it's become obvious that no one even gives a shit if I actually show up (as with the management and everyone else who works here), so I can easily go sack out and nap all day, while getting paid a little bit of money for it.

I think if Kris goes through with this, I'll just sit back and enjoy being unemployed for a good long while.

  1. Somewhat ironically, Tera is still there after nearly five years, and being fired didn't really improve my motivation or life much.

    I'm pretty sure she just wanted me out of the way, and was wayyy too nice to say so, haha.

  2. Totally the case. She went under anyway. Kris is a good friend, and Devon is awesome, but neither understand money.
