    ^I think my rote greetings have a customer service polish to them even after I've been set free from the shackles of retail work. It just gets jammed in your face at gunpoint to be friendly if you don't want to get fired.

Learn HTML, learn Markup, or at least find a way to cheat it so that it doesn't look broken or that you're lazy and you don't care."

    ^ Yeah, I always tried to aim for a "

    MOMO meets Fluttershy"

    type of voice when I was a cashier, and I still do that almost automatically when I'm on the phone or in person with customer service folks. I figure anyone in customer service gets enough crap and rudeness from people on a regular basis so I kind of have to compensate.

    ^ You're not, though! I completely understand how you feel, and it kind of sucks that we live in a set of social circumstances that bases your entire self-worth on being a productive cog in the economy and then, "

    Whoops, sorry, we actually don't have any jobs for you ha ha funny how that works huh?"

    /falls down a flight of stairs

    But as far as practical things like being able to afford stuff, it is kind of a necessary evil. :S Hope you can find a new job soon, and preferably one you like! :3

    ^Thanks! <img src=" title="Smile" /> I'm going to be filing for unemployment soon, which I've always had this negative connotation of, and this probably the first time I've been without a job since before starting college, so this is a very weird time for me.

    Also, I totally wish I could drink with you sometime. XD

    i understand as well. i think our society sucks that way. personally i fuckin hate work like you cant believe. my last job harassed me &

    slandared me. its hard &

    stressful &

    the 2 years i was there were beyong horrible. so i was always too damn tired to do anything i actually wanted to do then theres other crap that stops me from doing it. it pisses me off. i can finally have relax time now &

    im learing to remember what that is so now its fun. i just have to remmber to always relax.

    so today im looking foward to doing all the ideas i jotted down last night though i cant finish all of them today. i want to get way into art i have started part of it close to finishing art pieces from yesterday lots of ideas to add the pieces i havent finished yet etc. right now feells great. and remember to relax &

    watch movies something i never waste my time on cuz it always feels like a waste of 2 hours of my life. so i end up annoyed i watched a damn movie &

    it wasnt a good movie &

    it wasted my life!!! i do the same thing w/ tv &

    games id rather be creative.

    but on the upside i can get insperation....speaking of insperation i really need to practice my bass.....anyhow im doing an excellent workout its really hard but feels great doing it cuz I CAN DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! then im soaring all over the place! im still sore but muscle rest day was yesterday &

    id rather get results &

    id rather get them sooner than later so im doing it again today anyhow.

    i still need to finish the day the earth stood still i hate stopping movies but this ones not very good so i dunno. ive seen the new xmen movie god i love this guy thats younger magneto! dude hes smart &

    his plans always work! so my brain is going out for a new oc later xd >

    .<

    fan fiction will be bassed off the 2 movies hes been in. i wish i had faster than dial up i could be on youtube watching lots more of this guy. i dunno his name either he playes a great eric. id like to be on his team xd.

    so yeah things that are fun woohoo!!!!!!!!!!! :greenjump: :greenjump: :greenjump:

    :3vyi34r2]^Thanks! :) I'm going to be filing for unemployment soon, which I've always had this negative connotation of, and this probably the first time I've been without a job since before starting college, so this is a very weird time for me.

    Oh gosh, I was in that exact position after losing my job last fall. I applied for unemployment too and got sent a bunch of stuff about it in the mail, but then I got another temp job. Still, yeah, I think there's this feeling of shame and failure associated with it, which is really unfair because what the heck else are you supposed to do?

    Also, I totally wish I could drink with you sometime. XD

    ^^^^^ XDD That'd be awesome.
