2 12's done. Now 2 16's. Wish me luck. I will probably not be back, on here, until Wed. It's work, sleep, rinse and run to the bus! LOL, at least for the next couple days.
I went to the Diner and had a good read with some coffee and a bowl of Chili and a hot Ham and Cheese Sammi w/ chips and pickle. Left there at cluse and went to the bar for a beer and a Makers. Read another couple of chapters and caught up with a couple friends. Now, gonna do a DoorDash order and hit the sack.
I am gonna layer up and go to the diner. I expect it to be colder on the way home, it's 14F now. But I am gonna hit the road. Just need to put on my coat and my boots and I am outta here! Oh, don't forget the book is coming with me!! LOL
I worked a shift today and have tomorrow off. 56 hours 5 days, this week. Next week another 56 hours but, in 4 days. Sat 12, Sun 12, Mon 16 and Tues. 16. Wed is my Birthday and I bought a Ticket to the MN Wild game, we play the Florida Panthers. Should be a good one!
I went with Plan B. Stay in, do some laundry and watch Youtube. I am still going to do my best to stay awake until 11, or so. That part is still on. Just doing it without caffeine and without the half mile, one way, walk in the cold. Avoiding the cold, right now, was probably for the best.
After Monday's stupidity, Tuesday was uneventful. Spent my shift in Control, training Sandy, I get the feeling she is not going to work out for us, various reasons, one being she does not pay attention. Anywho, one of our night guys had car trouble and could not make it in. My LT. spend over an hour calling for a replacement and I had to stay, overnight.
Work was rather shitty. Had to boot 4 people then get physical with some idiot that was told to leave 3 times earlier today. Ended up getting the MPD involved before he would leave, which was a good thing because I was at my limit with this shitbird and was gonna take him down a put the bracelets on.
Ok I am all set to go to the Diner, although I still need a shave. After the quick facial hair mod, I will be on my way, into the cold afternoon, 20F, for a brisk walk to my fav spot. Plus, I got 3 new books delivered last week! I am set for a spell! Which is good, in my world! LOL.
My paycheck was a day late. Why do YOU think it was late? Anyway, I'm not late on Rent, which is kinda a big deal, but I missed my weekly DoorDash, because I was not sure when I would be paid, Meaning I am going to run out of bottled water. which sucks, because I will have to buy some water at Walgreens prices and whatever they happen to have stocked...
Off to bed. It's been a crappy day. Today was Pay Day, not for me!! Some others on my crew got paid, not me! This fricking company is so full of crap, we were told there was a glitch in the pay system, but all moneys have been directed to us and that the posting of our pay is up to the bank we have. BS at it's stupidest. I am so ready to get a lawyer and sue this fricking company.
I picked up a shift on Wednesday, it'll be overtime for 8 hours. So, that means I will be up late tomorrow evening bringing boxes down for recycling, I have to break them down first and then tie them with some twine, so I can bring multiple boxes at once. Then get up early Thursday, shower and get ready for Thanksgiving with my Sister and Brother.
One more day of work. I found out today, that I have Thanksgiving off! That's 2 out 5 times I have had it off. Anyway, I am going to play some Raid, watch some Youtube then off to bed. Good Night TPU!!
I am off to work, I have to man the control room, since we are short handed, again. Oh well, it is what it is, I guess, not a lot I can do about it. I am not in charge of hiring. Anyway, it's a cold one today, 31 F now and going into the teens, later. Got to make sure I have my hat!! LOL
Wednesday was a weird one. In my last post I wrote that I was going to eat a pizza and go to bed. what actually happened is, I stayed up until 5 am, did not eat a pizza and woke up at 7:30 am. I went and got a coffee and my package. Stayed awake until 1 pm and took a nap. woke up at 4, got dressed, again, and went to the store and to the bank and to the Post office.
Work week is done, I hope. Just got home and I am going to cook a pizza, watch some YT and then go to bed. I have to get up in the morning and retrieve a package from the Amazon Box at the Hotel, down the street. So, a relatively early bedtime for a Tuesday night So, this is Goodnight TPU! Until then...
Gonna get ready to roll! Going to the local diner, again (Thursday ritual). I need to get ready, shower, shave and such. I might bring a second book to read, I think I might be near the end of the one I was reading. Either way I am going to get at it, Now!!
Lazy day today, so far. I am now going to get dressed and go to the store, maybe stop at the coffee shop and then, IDK. Probably fix something to eat and maybe clean a little, do a load, or two, of laundry...nothing to special or strenuous.
Gotta get ready for another shift, then hopefully some time off. Not sure what the rest of the week looks like but, that's ok, I'll figure something out! LOL!
My Veterans Day was spent working, again. Maybe, someday, I will have a Vets Day off (while not working for a bank). Being a Vet, I would like the day off but I also need to keep my current job and not call in sick just because I want to, I am speaking to a coworker when I say that. Anyway, Good Night TPU!
