Oh yay, another work rant.
the computers got fried or something and for my whole shift it was cash only with the registers freezing up anyway, even without credit card processing. Idiot customers...one lady had me talk to her dude on her cell when she had trouble paying for pictures with a credit card. It eventually went thru but the dickhead wanted me to hand over the developed pics for an IOU. Wtf? Um no, you pay first. He was all getting mad "you shouldn't make your problem into my problem" the only problem is him refusing to pay. Businesses have the right to dictate acceptable forms of payment. Dickhead.
but the bitchcake is owned by a bitch who is a regular. A slender balckold female who dresses way way up yet only buys the cheapest shit. She gets gum, only when on sale, and will only buy fragrances that are 75% off and she takes fucking forever cuz she stands there and has me read prices out to her. Anyway today she wanted her gum and some candy bars....all cheap. The registers kept crashing and she didn't want to wait so first she made me write rain checkss (for gum...seriously) and then...she opened and ate a caramel in front of me and said "your store owes me for my time" and refused to pay for it.
seriously???
if that bitch were truly as classy as she pretends to be, she would not have stooped to petty theft.
I hate this bitch so much. She won't even spray her own perfume testers. She's vile. She wants to be waited on hand and foot for free.
ok must try to sleep. Allure is stopping it's Allure Rewards program, and the program gives me a sephora.com small discount. I want to drop by Sephora before work to pick up a sample of the Too Faced beauty balm (zinc oxide spf yay!) And do a patch test of St Tropez selftanning mousse. I need to get my orders in on either Monday or tues. When a program deadline is the 26th...does that mean gotta get in by 11:59 on 25th or 11:59pm on 26th? Patch test needs time to react.

f*cking work!
So today was the yearly "evaluation" aka "what we want out of you worthless wageslaves" and seems I am only "partially achieving expectations".
I'm "not engaged enough" probably because I feel undervalued there...just another meat body to be worked as much as possible. I'm also not as fast as he wants. Probably cuz I'm in pain after working at that place. And they say my sales aren't high...that there's a clear difference between the days I work and the sba's days. Want to know why? Because I'm doing all the resets, revisions, endcap changes, displayers etc that she ignores when she sees a sale! So she gets the sales and I get the non-selling work. And she's bitched at me if I didn't get it done! As did the "evaluation" when it said I didn't complete projects fast enough. Fuck this!
sigh..not happy.
few days ago the tall manager/exa made fun of me and scolded me for processing an overcharge wrong. Apparently I'm not supposed to do a return/rering...instead I start as a return, but when register says enter price I put in the difference between the price paid. And the price it should have been. And I have to figure out that difference in my head. I suck at math! Always have!
and this was *after* he'd sent me out in my car, burning my own gas in order to pick up his lunch!
seriously fuck this!!
I've never been fired from anywhere tho...and I do like my perfect record that way. Ugh...I'm so hating that place now. But I've got to be a good slave until I get another income stream. Doesn't need to be a big income stream....that place pays me peanuts. I'm below povertyline. I'd be fucked if Mom wasn't letting me live with her. I want to turn this frustration into motivation to write, whether for comic or a book that could be published someday. But I'm so angry right now I just want to watch Sims burn or something. Ugh!
and I also want french fries right now. Ugh....
I need to try to sleep...gotta go be a good slave again in less than 6 hours.... sigh....

Where has my brain gone?
Why have i been so mentally-not-working? It's like writer's block mixed with don't-give-a-fuck-itis.. which is really weird because doing a few stick figure sketches made me laugh.. I ENJOY writing... so why haven't i been able to make myself sit at the damn computer and WRITE?
I did a bit of cleaning these past few days, but that's it. Life has been work-sleep-eat-work-don't eat-sleep with moments of supreme laziness scattered about. I even played Sims. I made a house that's all one room.. and i was playing with different carpet tiles, some fanmades too, and made the room floor look like a fake forest floor with a fake river with fish. My fanmade tiles were a water texture and water-with-fish textures. And that made me happy. i also have snow textures and ice textures and little paw print textures.
I have very vague memories of going to some amusement park (Disney World?) and thinking it was sooo cool when I found a setup that had this big plastic tree that had rooms "inside" (it was cutaway) and the ground was all carpeted with many carpet colors and it looked like grass and the blue carpet was the river, and there was even a little plastic bridge i could walk on, and plastic "stones" in the blue carpet. And the floor had even been built up so there were "hills" and the fake river went down the hills and ended in a fake carpet pond.
Which is probably why i keep recreating stuff like that with Sims houses. And why so many of my fan-item collection is outdoor furniture, fridges that look like trees, etc. I love the Makin Magic decorations. i keep building various version of the Addams Family house. Heeeeee.
My fave fanitem is a black gas stove with stovepipe. It seems to be based off a floorlamp. It can be placed anywhere and it's turned on and off like a lamp. But its lightbulb was taken from the fireplace. it really looks like a little black stove! Very well done. I wish i knew how to create these items.
I made a Sim Samantha Ronson even, and got her skilled up and sent her to Studio Town. She's extremely friendly and outgoing and chats up people without me telling her too. There's just one problem... Sim Samantha seems to be totally ok with getting into public hot tubs naked. Umm... pretty sure the real Samantha would NEVER do that! But within the game's constraints, a Leo is a Leo is a Leo.
Speaking of Samantha.... she was in Syndey, Australia for a few days, working and visiting Nicole Richie in between. Had a gig down there... I saw the pics on my phone. The club had some scantily clad ladies behind Samantha holding up cards that spelled Ronson, and someone got a shot of Samantha facepalming with the girls behind her. So cute! Another pic i'll need to transfer.
I also heard that linnocent blohan is pretending to play Dame Elizabeth Taylor in some lifetime movie of the week. How did I know? Cuz blohan calls the paps to "catch" her "working" of course! And she's falling out of her costumes repeatedly as per usual.
I read about it on Celebitchy.com first (I like them because they're not homophobic and don't do that saMan shit!) but The Superficial has more pics.
If you need something to kill your hunger pains... these should do it ^_^
I think these repeated "malfunctions" had to have been purposeful.... because... look how low she's wearing the halter top to begin with.Granted I'm just a single lezzie who stares at boobies for fun... but I'm pretty sure that there isn't supposed to be that wide an expanse between the neck and the boobs. The "cups" on that dress are damn near at her waist. A strapless bra and hoicking the bodice up would have helped her "problem" considerably. which is why i think it's purposeful. It's such an easy fix but she doesn't want to. Her boobs are nearly at her elbows and she likes it that way. In public! People of Walmart right there!

work=stress=sucks, but i'm a computer moron. Feck!
WTF am I doing up at 3am when i work a full shift later today? Oh right... my dumb self went right back to sleep after my alarm went off.
Seriously thinking about getting that bed-shaker alarm from Thinkgeek.
I'm having issues ordering from walmart.com and I'm annoyed. They're my protein powder source and i'm dangerously low and it's soooo much cheaper online so wtf???
I converted my 2nd comic on the downstairs comp.. which decided to autoupdate Artweaver first... annoyance. I just use it to convert bmp to jpg geez! Maybe someday i'll try to draw with it for realz. Because on both my old ancient computers the lag is awful on Artweaver.
I kinda want to buy a laptop... Mom's laptop is actually a teeny bit more advanced than this internet desktop I'm on right now. But I don't wanna blame the computer... it's over 10 years old and it still works fairly well.
I just like the idea of a laptop... a computer that i can work on while in my bed.. my penpad at my side. Then convert BEFORE turning on the wireless card (no more auto updates dangnabit!) and post on my site.
I'm trying to figure out Adsense again.... like.. um... where do i get the ad code i paste on my site?
I'm also concerned about their prohibited content.. what do they mean by "adult"? I mean i refuse to draw nudity. i refuse to draw sex scenes. But I like innuendo! And i like jokes!
Ok.. second comic on site.. weird how my lil copyright info blurb got blurred.... did I use a different font size and didn't notice?
yea... this pic is clearly gonna be my favorite for the next few months. I'm a computer moron!!!
I' m still seeing just white instead of skin tones. But i finally thought to check stuff on my phone's browser (my site is so simple it loads in seconds) and i did see the skin tones there. yay!
ok.... how the hell do i get adsense and project wonderful and the paypal linked donation jar up? The tip jar pic is up.. looks kinda weird but I'm... 80 percent happy w it....
Eeeesh.... wtf am I doing? Ok I want them to go down the sides for one.... so i guess i choose vertical.
Ok... Project Wonderful wants at least 30 pages before they consider me.
I should probably wait a bit on the Adsense too?
Still don't have an images folder... and don't even ask about php. I'm still doing it the hard way... copy the old index page to a new name, add the links, the alter the index page to display the update and link to the most recent old one. yeeeahh......
Ugh... I need to stop worrying about the damn code and just DRAW! Get out my notebook and go sit in the woods and get the scramblings in my head sorted a bit on paper. When the sun goes down I can be calmly at my bedroom computer (since i now know i really can convert in bedroom and it will display just fine) and just draw.
Doing a full comic in Paint takes me several hours, and staring that closely at the backlit screen does give me a headache. But the faster i get these pics made, the faster i can get adsense and project wonderful up and running.... and I may need them.
You see.. work is being "restructured".
AGAIN.
I saw on the manager's desk an actual damn checklist for how we're supposed to talk to customers for feck's sake (hi Mich!)
so now IN ADDITION to the damn sugg sell requirement, i can also get written up for not using the proper phrases.
Seriously!!!
Also..I need to hide my scale. Sadness.
Stress sucks.
