It’s been a while. All this election shit and I haven’t been posting. It’s looking good for Obama and I like it. I’ll be done with college in December, just before Christmas, and I couldn’t ask for a better present. Time can’t fly by fast enough at right now. I got layed off recently, but I’m not going to let that get me down, people. The job market in St. Louis isn’t so hot right now, so the prospects are looking dim, but I keep on truckin’. It’s always darkest before the dawn. Hopefully, this guy can do something to make it better for all of us.

It has been so long. A-B was purchased by InBev and an Auction Rate Securities Market collapsed. I quit my job at Schnucks and will soon begin working for Able Lock and Key. Obama and McCain fight to the death for the hearts and minds of all those red-blooded Americans out in TV land. What does the future hold? I’m not sure if I really want to know.

The site is back up with a very extra special thanks to Mr. Rentfro’s strong pimp-hand. Lots of shit going down in the world today my friends. Planet Earth is quite turbulent right now and all I really want to do is play World of Warcraft. Stay tuned, folks!

I think I’m going to start using popular search terms in my tags to see if I can drum up some traffic.

Sorry I haven’t been updating the site so often, folks. Timtron hasn’t been in the best mood lately, give or take about two years.

I hate my current job. I drove to work today in a layer of ice and sleet and had to make a detour because a St. Louis County plow truck got stuck. Hell, some lady was in a ditch in my neighborhood. Why do I do it? Because I need the job right now. I can’t not have the income. If I tried to call in today, I would have been told to call a cab. I was the last one to leave. I haven’t had the day after Thanksgiving or Christmas Eve off since I started working at this place, eight years ago. I answer two separate phones averaging at least 100 incoming calls per day. I dispatch whatever service calls come in. I take care of 111 separate facilities, 102 grocery stores and 9 gas stations, in seven different states. I dispatch 14 in-house repairman. Payroll, parts orders, and uniform orders included. I take care of their vehicle maintenance, including licensing.  I maintain a schedule of numerous inspections that are required by national and local ordinances at each facility. I am 27 years old and have to have my parents co-sign on the financing for a car because I don’t make enough money each month to sign the papers myself. Yeah, I live with my parents, too. I have to get one of three sickly old ladies to try and cover for me if I get sick. I was told I get 75% tuition reimbursement until I found out two years late that’s only up to $5,000 a year. The human resources department loses my resume every time I submit one for an open position within the company. Then no one tells me I didn’t get the job. I find out because I am introduced to the person they hired to fill the position I applied for. I ask one person in human resources who is supposed to notify those that applied they didn’t get the job and they tell me they don’t have to notify you. I ask another person in the human resources department and they tell me either the person doing the hiring or some one from the human resources department is supposed to notify you.

I was able to land a side-job writing web site content at this awesome new media company. The guy that owns the place is one of the coolest people you have ever met. I have always wanted a job involving a computer’s functionality and/or program and website design. This is what I want to do with my life. I want to work full time at this place helping people convey a message to their target audience via the medium of the world wide web. This is something I would be happy to get out of bed in the morning to go do. I would take pride in handing out my first business card after meeting people to help them accomplish all that they wish to with their website’s content. That job would remove so much stress from my life. A childhood friend and a lot of other cool cats work at this place. I think the only job that would beat this one would be running a candy factory whose labor force consisted solely of beautiful women.

If I leave my current job within 5 years after I graduate. I have to pay back that tuition reimbursement. I would use my “profit sharing” money to pay off some, but I’m really not too concerned with having to pay that money back, because I will be too happy.

But right now, I contemplate driving my car into and off of things at high speeds on my way home from work.

I hope you have kept your resolutions so far because we’re not even a week into the new year. I feel sorry for you if you’ve blown it already. Just make sure you try to have as much fun as you can on your way down to failure.

I’m going to try to stay caught up with this here thing as much as I can, considering I started school on January 2nd and am currently writing content on the side for a web design company. I play too much World of Warcraft, too.

This here hit comes as a bit of shock, although I am not sure why. This is rather sad and I am not sure whether there is any hope for all the good people in Pakistan, because I know there are some that live there.

As long as I can keep a steady flow of content coming, everything should continue operating smoothly.
