    Another 18 hour shift...

    Yes, it's that time again. I'm working from 6pm Thursday to noon Friday. well tonight i'll be watching "Life of Brian," "In The Name of the Father," and "The Patriot." I've never seen any of them, but hopefully they, along with the combination of food and 2 good books, will pass the night away quickly....

    I can't complain, i get the money that i need and i get to be on G|A all night too...

    yeah, but it's nice to make money instead of spend money during spring break.

    I chose not to have overtime except for one day. Because the people who shifts I picked up would not have gotten overtime. (Except that one day)

    haha! i'm getting paid to post on G|A? and i just finished watching 2 DVDs. The pay here is crap ($7.50/hr), but when i graduate and get a real job, i know i won't get paid this well to do this little. i'm goign to enjoy it while i can. and hopefully i'll find some deals on my textbooks so at least some of this money can stay with me.
