Finally Friday...

Today was great!
Started out perfect .. woke up on time, got my coffee, got to school.
GOT OUR TOOL KITS!!
I have to be honest... this is the only day so far that i've been looking forward too. Getting your chef's jacket is like the initial initiation, and getting your tool kit is like validation. I can't wait to use them!!! ( I just might have to make a late night dinner... who knows?) I have to work tonight until midnight... not so bad since I don't go in until 6. I STILL haven't gotten paid however.. For a day or two I had convinced myself that it was the mail, and I felt like a complete ass for bitching to the people at work about it. Except... I got mail today? I keep getting the same letter from my bank in AK about the SAME transaction, it's weird? makes me feel all de ja vu-ish. It's been lightly snowing here the past couple of days. My back alley exit was blocked this morning by a plow truck.uncool. I have to walk to work today because of the lack of paying me they have.. which means I have to leave an effing hour earlier than I should.. which FYI is ridiculous.
We are supposed to start our stages soon! I'm excited about it! I saw a couple of places on our stage list that i'm actually VERY interested in. To be honest, i'm nervous about it, but... i'm going to follow my new years resolution and just DO IT.. ( I have found the IT to DO!) well ... I need to go mentally prepare myself for work ... wish me luck ( and cross your fingers I do recieve a paycheck tonight ... :)

farewell for the night!

The end of my sanitation days.. and the darlin greek

This has been a LOOONG week, it's been one that everyone in my class has looked forward to, as well as dreaded for a long time. Our sanitation portion is over ( which i'm kind of bummed that our teacher is leaving us, he is a DOLL) we are now approved to touch things. No you perve.. not like that (FYI- it's unsanitary outside of home.) Class went well, test went well.. I felt kind of congested though, I think it's just being in the weather with shitty clothes on though to be honest. I come home today to find an EMPTY mailbox.... ahhhhhhhh they are never going to pay me. I was so annoyed I went down to my work at rush hour to talk to my boss, he explained what happened, (which made sense) but i'm still really irritated. It's like I try to be as nice as I can, as understanding as I can.. they just aren't Kaladis :( man.. I hope you fools realize that really is a good job ( and i miss you guys!!!) We never were stiffed a paycheck, it always came at the same time, Frannie would go out of his way to fix anything for us... they just need to give me a store down here I think. ANOTHER thing that urks me about my job is the lack of coffee knowledge these dummies have.. no of course I dont expect them to be an expert ( or a Paul for you kaladians) but come on... half of them don't even know how coffee can be decaffeinated. I don't know, I think I've become a coffee bitch. I talked to my mom for a while today, she always makes me feel better about things, always thinking on the positive side.. telling me things always work out.. thank god for that woman, I don't know how she does it. My mom's taught me a lot of really good things though- always to be nice to people even if you hate them, if someone is fucking you over FIX it, don't give up.. the basics ya know? but she really has it ENGRAVED in me. I'm only rude to people who treats others rude, and it's because it's unnecessary-- I don't look at it as rude, I look at it as my revenge against all the assholes I have to deal with all day. When someone doesnt pay me I sit in their office until I get an answer, and i'm not going to stop looking for a better job. I'm so happy that i'm in school, i'm so happy that i've got something to look forward to and be proud of. I like to work hard, i'm glad that this time working hard is actually going to benefit MYSELF rather than some dumbass corporate-ish company. One day, when I own my own place i'm going to treat people the Kaladi way. Everyone in alaska should know what i'm talking about, and if you don't ... you have issues. Tomorrow I better get a paycheck, or i'm raising hell. No joke.

Be Clean ... GO green, and sanitation.

SOOO .. I have my first two days of class down. First day was AMAZING! I started out the day early, barely could sleep. I hopped the train, grabbed a Chocolate mint from Argo, and bustled to class rocking out to some Lady Gaga. My best days always begin listening to Lady Gaga, it might be because we're both freaks, in two completely different ways. I'm loud, listen to people, and when someone is speaking in front of a group that i'm part of, i'm usually the only one who responds. Not quite gaga-riffic, but to many people, im kind of strange. I was excited to see who I was going to be with, a class full of girls! haha .. go figure. We talked to some of the teachers, a lot of the admin. faculty.. ya know- the usual first day boring shit. My group got our uniforms last, I think it added a little spark to the end of our day. It's like a sort of initiation when you get that jacket, it's like they're saying, " HERE.. you can have this.. buuuut, you need to listen to every word i tell you." I'm an open canvas-- fill me with colour! There are a couple people that I instantly clicked with in class.. which was NICEEEEEEEEEE. I get along with them, than the people at my job. I just don't really like my job, it's to dramatic, like everything is an issue. I just don't care enough about it, to really want to be involved in the drama. I just complain about the things ( OR supervisor) that really get on my nerves. But whatever... I have way better things to focus on right now, that worry about what they are doing. I go there to work- to receive a paycheck-- which haha, as it happens, I didn't get today on our PAYday. Supposively I get it tomorrow. It's not cool to do that to people, to tell them they get paid on the 5th, and then not pay them until the 6th. It annoys me because today was the last day to pay our rent without getting a late charge. I tried to tell my boss that but they laughed and were like " it's not like they're going to kick you out" OBVIOUSLY they can't do that. I signed a fucking year lease. BUUUT I will get a late charge, which YOU should be paying because YOU paid me NOT on time. Sorry for the rant.. I wouldn't ever say that in real life, but I can dream of it, and kind of need it to be said somewhere. Soonn.. i'm going to change the full layout of this blog.. or maybe i'll make another one-- one where I bitch about the annoying things in my life, and the one where i can showcase my work. hahaha.. the internet is so ridiculous.
