I need a new job.

I'm tired of working where I am.  I want an awesome job.  I want to take photographs for a living or design for a living.  I need my degree.  What kind of job should I have until I finish my degree?

Here's what I don't want to do:
  • Sell things.
  • Cook things.
  • Deal with annoying managers.
  • Interact with annoying people.
  • Work under lame tight wads.
Is there a job that doesn't fit in that category?  I hope so.  

Thanks for reading this nonsense.

Work, Work, Work.

I worked today.  All day long just like every Saturday ever.  You know, I really hate the enormous shift on Saturday.  Why in the world does my manager continue to give me the same 12:oopm - 10:00pm shift.  With all of the associates we have at the store, you think he could spread it to where we could all have a better shift on Saturday.  One of my other co-workers that work(ed) there stopped coming and I bet one of the reasons he stopped is because he got 11:00am - 10:00pm every Saturday.  Now, he's one of the better sales people there.  I'm not sure if that's one of the reasons he left, but it makes sense to me.  I mean, other than the fact that it kinda stinks working there.

But, yea.  I now have some Cheerwine, so I'm happy.  If you haven't had that soda before, please try it.  

The Derek Trucks Band is pretty awesome.  That's what I'm listening to right now.  They have a really awesome sound.  Kinda bluesy at times and tribal sounding at times.  It's pretty awesome.  Check them out.  

Thanks for reading my ramblings
Josh.

Driving Range.

I just got home from the driving range.  You know, I like it when people come in there and they look so professional like they're going to smash every ball they hit, but they end up doing not great.  I guess they just have nice stuff to work with.  I'm not really good at driving the ball, but I'm good enough.  I've actually just started going to the driving range.  My friend Aman and I have been going for the past 2 Saturdays now.  It's pretty fun.  I hope to get good enough soon to play a real game of golf.  Hopefully.  

Work was pretty ok today.  It started out slow and dull, but as the day went along, it got better.  Slow days are OK during the week but if I'm working a Saturday, I'd rather it be pretty quick paced.  I sold a lot of junk, though.  

I hope everyone else's Saturday went well.

A day at work.

Today was right rough at work.  I sold lots of crap, but I was there forever.  Well, not forever, because I've been there forever before.  Forever would be like the 4:00am - 11:30pm day I had on the day after Thanksgiving.  Today was only a 9 hour day, but it seemed pretty long.  I did have a pretty big ticket today, though.  These two older people bought a PS2 (with warranty), a TomTom go730 (with warranty), 5 games, 7 movies, two laptop bags, and some batteries.  The total was about 1,200, I believe.  That was probably my largest and most productive sale.  

I'm tired of selling junk..  

I want to be a voice over actor.  Yes.  That sounds fun.  I want to be the voice of characters on animation movies.  Speaking of that, I'm looking forward to seeing the movie Wall-e.  My girlfriend and I were supposed to see it tonight, but she had some homework she needed to do.  I can understand that because I have some I need to do as well.  I work again tomorrow, but only until 5.  It shouldn't be too bad, although it is Saturday tomorrow.  

I hope everyone else's day went well.  You may hear from me again tonight because I feel this will be a rather dull night.

Thanks for readin'.
