I've just returned from seeing The Incredibles! What a great movie it was too! :O)

( What I thought-spoilers herein. )
Such great 3D Animation, too! Everything looked so crisp and clean and really retro! Ahhh, good stuff! But I shan't go on in case the rest o' you wanna see it, which I recommend you do.

Also gave stupid Pyscho Boss his letter, but he still gave me the eye! Geeze, what does this guy want has it occured to him that prehaps being 165 cm and 56 kg I might not be able to lift a really heavy box? I don't think that should be a crime! And why should I have to risk injury and stuff if there's someone stronger who can do it? I applied to be a cashier, not a box-carrier!

Bah!

But it was cool been able to spend the day with my good friend, who can't come to my party due to Family Commitments, which reminds me that I need to get onto everyone else and ask 'What's up' and when I can expect them and stuff. The Hotel needs to know this week.

Oww, I've just being sitting on my computer chair really weirdly and now my foot's asleep, great move on my part.

Right, must remember that I need to have chicken for dinner tonight, if I wait too long it'll go off and that won't do at all! Also it's pretty late to be having dinner, but what can I say? I didn't get up until almost 1pm today!

I'm beginning to wish that I hadn't given my DVD player back to my father, you see I've got a DVD player in my computer, but I like to write and stuff while watching DVDs (which explains how I miss so much I guess) and I obviously can't do that when it's playing on the computer.

Right, my little bro's watching his Family Guy DVD downstairs, so I think I'm gonna go down and eat dinner while his doing that.

This morning after sleeping poorly- my damn brother was up nearly all night on his computer, which in this studio apartment is right next to where I sleep (my bro has to sleep on the spare matteress-hee hee!)-the phone rings and who is it but my mother who after going over the convoluted and confusing Chris Kringle system my extended family has adopted, proceeds to lay into me about not getting a Doctor's Certificate to Psycho Boss ASAP.

I tried to explain my position, the man has a warped set of rules if I ever saw them and frankly I'm beginning to think he's even more of a string-puller then the bosses at the two Michel's Patisserie's I worked at who said I was hired made me work for them once or twice and never spoke to me again (except to give me money, thankfully). But Mother is not to be reasoned with, she's VERY pissed off at me for not getting the Doctor's Certificate immediately and considering the lackluster job climate right now she's probably right. But I hate this Boss! Why can't he keep things straight? Why does he say one thing then suddenly change the rules? Why is it that he'll ask someone who's had major friggin' surgery to come back the next day but refuse to give me any work until I give him a Doctor's Certificate for a simple back strain?

How did I end up with this crappy job anyway? Why won't anyone else hire me? What sort of future can I expect when I can't get any experience in the office field, because I need experience to work in that field? (Catch 22!) Why did the Library do this to me? I swear I don't care how long the shifts were, it couldn't be any more difficult than trying to figure out the Pyscho rules of the Newsagency. Especially since the Boss's sister works there too, and she's just as mean and snappy as he is.

If that wasn't bad enough, my father calls me up and proceeds to tell me off as well! Once again he tells me I'm paranoid and take things too personally, this all harkens to this certainity I have that one of the Altar Girl's at Church looks at me oddly. Now I don't think she does so because of some weird conspiracy, but she definately looks in my general direction and it throws me off. Anyway Dad says he's had terrible jobs and terrible bosses and I have to join the real world and stop taping.

I have NOT been taping! Or at least that hasn't been the main focus of this week, I've been doing stuff like buying presents and going on the net. And I'm going to the Doctor's today! I just figured it was unlikely I'd get any shifts this week....probably a mistake. So, Dad is quite right to say that I'm subconciously trying to avoid this stupid job, but honestly it's a blow to go from really enjoyable work (the Uni) to shithouse work like this.

Then my bro wants to know why the Boss seems to have changed his rules just for me, like maybe he (the Boss) heard all my bitching about him and is trying to get me back or some such. First of all, that's impossible, the Boss intimidates me, all I can do is say 'Yes', 'No' and 'OK' when I'm face to face to the man. And secondly, isn't that a little childish?

No, all I can think is, the Boss doesn't really want me to work there and he thinks I'm out to sue him or something (ie back problems at work always seem to lead to worker's comp claims etc). I mean for all I know I could go to all this trouble of seeing a doctor (which luckily doesn't cost me anything as I'm a poor student), get the Doctor's Certificate, give it to the man and he'll never call me again.

Man! I wish, O' How I WISH I could get a decent bloody JOB

Ugh! I'm so tired! Damn my brother! I don't know how he operates on so little sleep, but he does and I swear I've busted my butt tossing and turning all night (Geeze, I AM a wuss, aren't I?

Screw this, I'm off to the doctor's to get the stupid certificate now.

Ok today I've gotta drag my sorry ass to the Newsagency where I will hopefully get paid for my work two weeks ago without too much of a fuss on the part of Pyscho Boss. And seeing as I don't have another job lined up I shalln't tell him "Well, thanks for nothing."

Right-o now my guts hurt today, WTF is this? What have I done to deserve this crap? I swear I didn't eat anything weird in the last couple of days. If this keeps up I'll have to break out the Buscopan.

I'm not kidding...this video I rented from the store says it's Japanese with subtitles, but it's dubbed instead and it is

SO

BAD

Really it should be a crime to masacre such fine animation and such a good story line with these voice actors. It's sad, I could to a better job, honestly. I wonder though if anyones ever told them (at the video store) that it's really a dub, because people are guarenteed to feel ripped off. I sure did when I first borrowed it, lovely animation though.

In other news, I think Psycho Boss from the Newsagency has given me the old heave ho! Geeze you take a week off with a slipped disc and this is what you get for it? Well screw 'em, I'm going into get my pay on Tuesday and I'm not sure if he's going to say don't bother coming back etc but whatever...

Now it's back to job-hunting, what a bitch, I'm going to apply at the Video Ezy since for once they're not asking for Juniors, I wonder how that'll go, they said something like 'Apply if you're interested in 8-30 hours a week', I just hope I won't get stuck with the latter!

It sitnking hot today like you wouldn't believe, 34 degrees celicus! I'm not going outside again unless it's absolutely postively necessary.

And now for some quizzes swipped from applescruf85
( Click if you dare! )

Hmmm...nothing much more to say now...off to fiddle with my webpages etc.

Oh and I've got a cold at this late stage of the year! What a bitch! :O(
