I ache because I worked a six hour shift parcel sorting depot. I got a call from the recruitment agency I was with asking me if I wanted to work as a parcel sorter. I agreed and they gave me a handful of details. I had to phone them up again later to find out more because I knew so little about it, they didn’t tell me much that time either. One of the big details missing was how long I’d be working there, I figured I’d ask at the place as they would know. They didn’t. The agency hadn’t told them. I woke up at 2am this morning, got ready and went in. I was talking to the boss guy there and he told me that they normally get a new agency person in ever week. I knew the position was only going to be temporary but one week?!
I stuck around and did the shift, I wasn’t going to bail after I’d arrived. It was damn tiring work. I have bruises over both my arms. When I got home I soaked in the bath because I really really needed it. Relaxed for a while and then drive into Boro, went into the agencies office and told them I didn’t want their help anymore. I basically quite the job after one day. The job itself was harsh but you’d get used to it eventually if you had time to. Longer than a week at least.
The agency doesn’t work the way I thought it would have. What they do is get a message from some work place saying they need someone to do X. Agency then phones suitable people to do X and sends you off to work them for a while. Once you’re done your out of a job again until they ask you to do something else. You bounce around different places working for short periods of time doing whatever. Sorry but that’s not what I want. I want A job, not a bunch I bounce back and worth from whenever they need people. A bit of fucking consistency. Hopefully I’ll get this job I’m interviewing for on Friday. At least that one is a permanent position.
God I’m tired.
In none ‘uuuuurgh blarg blarg’ news I got Dead Rising 2. It is awesome but the fights with the psychopaths are still stupidly hard. There’s a chef guy who heals himself. I hate him with a passion. I completed it the other day and was surprised at how well I did. First run through and I got the S rank ending (the best), saved a load of survivors and beat quite a few psychopaths. The game has online vs multiplayer which is quite fun and online co-op story which I’ve not tried yet but really really want to. Craig, buy Dead Rising 2. Do it now.
I also picked up No More Heroes 2 which I’ve been meaning to do for a while. It retains the crazy story and style from the first game. Haven’t completed it yet because of DR2. I’m also restarted playing Dragon Age, (temporarily on hold while I first played through DR2). I’ve decided to play through as one character and then continue with another when I’ve finished instead of playing one section with all three of my characters before moving to the next one. Also I made my female mage make out with Leliana. Aaaaaalll riiiiight.
None games news, I now have a picture thingy hanging on the wall in my room. It’s some spelling of my name but the letters are made up of plants and animals in watercolour paint. The R is a bamboo shoot with a caterpillar and a fish, try and work that one out. My parents got their names an mine done when they were on holiday a year or so back and decided to get them framed. Don’t ask me why. It’s now hanging over the head of my bed. I just hope the hook is strong enough. i don’t want it falling on my head while I’m sleeping.
I’m too tired to think of anything else to write or even check if any of this makes sence. I am going to sleep like a brick tnogih….zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
