			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Lets start with a quick summary of ..oh&#8230; say the last year since I told the world what has been going on with me.  Work- Well that&#8217;s currently under advisement.  I hope I get to move up in the world of work and get my own box.  When I say box I mean what mean one of those little buildings you see at a gas station that looks like it will fit only one person.  No sadly not a padded cell that the uniform required is a straight jacket.  I know there are people that think I should be in one of those, but the orderlies haven&#8217;t caught up to me yet.( Shh&#8230;don&#8217;t tell them.) And yes the customers are just as bad now as they were a year ago.  People are still stupid.   Example= Lady walks up to the counter looking closely at the cigarette prices.  Keep in mind that my store sells them  at STATE MINIMUM!!!  She then bitches at me that our prices are too high.  And how she bought a whole carton for $25 in&#8230;(wait for it) North Carolina.  Gee lady you think cigarette prices are the same state to state when each state has control of taxes on tobacco?  Now I don&#8217;t want blonds that are actually smart to take this the wrong way but you should really seek out blonds that live up to the name Dumb Blond.  Of course I got a little lippy.  It is just a bad day in general for me and, well, I so wanted to pull this scene from <a href="http://multiplexcomic.com/strip/8">MultiPlex</a> (<a href="http://multiplexcomic.com/strip/1">Chapter one here</a>)(If you have ever worked in a Movie theater you should read, thanks Ashley for turning me on to this).  My entire day was like that.  Talk about rounding up the single digit iq people in the immediate area and taking a zippo and tossing it into the main fuel tanks.  I just have to keep reminding myself that it&#8217;s not worth the prison time.  That&#8217;s mostly work for the last year or so.</p>
<div id="attachment_79" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 250px"><a href="http://centurywinter.files.wordpress.com/2010/07/madgirlswithaaxe1.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-79" title="MadgirlswithaAxe" src="http://centurywinter.files.wordpress.com/2010/07/madgirlswithaaxe1.jpg?w=240&#038;h=300" alt="http://www.motivatedphotos.com/?id=92741" width="240" height="300" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Manager still sucks and this is me.</p></div>
<p>And well to go with the above picture my personal life isn&#8217;t much better.</p>
<p><a href="http://centurywinter.files.wordpress.com/2010/07/psychocloset1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-82" title="psychocloset" src="http://centurywinter.files.wordpress.com/2010/07/psychocloset1.jpg?w=240&#038;h=300" alt="http://www.motivatedphotos.com/?id=17912" width="240" height="300" /></a> Granted one must have a personal life, but hey, one can hope.  I can however say that there is hope in the future as I may be moving here soon.  (Cross fingers) Lets just pray that I can handle the stress of it all and not experience a psychotic break.  Funny story about that&#8230;my co-workers seem to think that I&#8217;m going to end up on Snapped one of these days.  I wonder where they get the thought?  That has been my life up this point.  And where am i now?  The exact same place really.  I  need to find something legal and constructive to do with my time I just lack the motivation to do it.</p>
<p>And now a little something that was passed to me through Facebook form a friend.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Excerpt from HP Lovecraft's Pickman's Model:"Any magazine-cover hack can splash paint around and call it a nightmare or a Witches' Sabbath or a portrait of the devil, but only a great painter can make such a thing really scare or ring true. That's because only a real artist knows the actual anatomy of the terrible or the physiology of fear -- The exact sort of lines and proportions that connect up with latent instincts or hereditary memories of fright, and the proper colour contrasts and lighting effects to stir the dormant sense of strangeness."<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=centurywinter.wordpress.com&amp;blog=3424474&amp;post=53&amp;subd=centurywinter&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:center;">Not sure what to name this one or what direction to go with it.  So lets just dive right in.  I&#8217;ve been doing a great deal of nothing lately and on a whim decided to reread New Moon by Stephine Meyers (no idea if I spelled that right nor do I care).  Well&#8230; it is my most liked book of the four in the Twilight Series, do not mistake it for my favorite, because as far a I&#8217;m concerned the only characters worth keeping alive were Jacob,  Emmit, and Mr Cullan. But thats just me and only me from all the noise I get from just about everyone else who has read the books.  Anyway&#8230; this reading spree led me to dust off a book by my favorite author.  H P Lovecraft.  If you have no idea who this man is google his name, I am not an encyclopedia.  Well random selection of a story landed me on Pickman&#8217;s Model.   Now, this wonderful site called <a href="http://www.cthulhucoffee.com/">Cthulhu Coffee</a> gives the story a short &#8220;nutshell&#8221; summary: <span style="font-family:Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular;font-size:x-small;">A Boston art aficionado befriends an artist named Pickman, whose nightmarish paintings are cause for his exile from Boston society (</span><a href="http://www.cthulhucoffee.com/summaries/pickman.html">http://www.cthulhucoffee.com/summaries/pickman.html</a>).  It sound kinda cool doesn&#8217;t it.  Now, I must admit I have only read a few of his stories, but I have to say this one is on the top of my list.  I&#8217;m not going to tell you what an all I like, didn&#8217;t like, etc, etc&#8230; That would just spoil it for you.  All I can really say is just read it and see if it causes the same reaction as it did me.  By midway through this 5500 (approx.) word story, my heart was pounding as my over-active imagination conjured up images of these unnameable, indescribable, horrific scenes.  And I am not ashamed to admit this story put me on edge as I live in a basement (you&#8217;ll have to read the story to get the reference).  As with a great many of HP Lovecreft&#8217;s works, it&#8217;s down-right creepy.  Now I have to go to bed and sleep with such imagery in my mind. And i have talked my friend into reading this story.  The Doctor Who episode called Blink had her jumpy for days, over this cute little, killer statue.</p>
<div id="attachment_60" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 81px"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-60" title="The Weeping Angel" src="http://centurywinter.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/drwhos3_weepingangel_lrg1.jpg?w=71&#038;h=149" alt="Don't blink. Blink and you're dead. Don't turn your back. Don't look away. And don't blink. Good Luck." width="71" height="149" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Don&#39;t blink. </p></div>
<p>What is this story going to do to her?  Well my dreamscape is going to be one fucked-up place tonight.  Can&#8217;t complain, I did bring this on myself, but if you hear me screaming in the night, you&#8217;ll know why, just just put in your earplugs, whatever form they come in, and ignore me.  Good night&#8230;well, night, anyway.  I must include these oh so cute toys, created by SOTA Toys.  These are the first three of the <span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"> &#8220;Nightmares of Lovecraft&#8221; line.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Lets see, where to begin&#8230;Okay.  Saturday i had off from work. Quite nice as i was suffering from a monstrous, sinus induced headache, bordering on migraine pain.  Needless to say I was not a happy person.  I had called off work Friday because I had a high fever Thursday.  by high i mean 102.4.  A fever that I had developed while at work that Thursday afternoon.  Since I only had a couple of hours left I downed some Tylenol and worked through it.  It got pretty nasty that night which is why I did the smart thing and call off from work Friday.  So Saturday night my tonsils are all red and swollen and my throat had become a drain for my sinuses, yuck! But the fever was long gone.  I wake up at 3 this morning and my throat felt all weird.  The rest of me is fine, feel great in fact.  But I look at it and see those little white spots od doom, that say I have strep.  Well shoot.  Now work policy is that I have to call in and tell the MANAGER IN CHARGE (very important that one) the I am calling in sick and must be at least an hour before my shift starts.  Well I have to be at work at 7 in the morning and the wonderful MANAGER IN CHARGE doesn&#8217;t come in until nine.  Yes is see the problem.  So as I fell back to sleep and didn&#8217;t wake back up until after 6 there was no way I could have called off work this morning anyway.  So to work I went.  I even called up the opening person and let her know that I had strep and to steer clear of me and that i was going to have to go home early.  So my time was spent siting out in the carwash office doing small things like doodling on a piece of paper.  Around eight I gave the manager (really assistant manager) that would be coming in at nine a call to let her know what was going on.  And even after letting her know in advance. She comes in at nine and when I tell her that i have to go home, she gets bitchy with me &#8220;Well your going to have to close carwash.&#8221;  She acts like it&#8217;s my fault that i got sick.  Which i feel i must add that it was something that I picked up at work in the first place.  So yes i&#8217;m a little bitchy to about it.  Well that was my lovely morning.  I feel I have a right to be mad at her for the way she treated me.  I know most people would say why bother going in to work in the first place?  Well I wan&#8217;t going to just leave my co-worker alone with people asking why carwash was closed.  It gets annoying and I hate hearing people ask the same qustion over and over.  So I went into work and at least did some of the outside trash as well as sweep out the carwash bay.   I was not going to have a no call no show (which is what it would have been concidered) on my record.</p>
<p>Later today a friend is being kind enough to take me to the emergency room so I can get a shot of antibiotics.  Oh the joy that is going to be.  Until then i am going to go to sleep.  I am tired after having to deal with a bitch of a coordinator this morning.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Homicidal thoughts, that&#8217;s about my thought process for the last couple of weeks.  Let me state this right now, a disclaimer of sorts.  I don&#8217;t believe killing is right or okay.  I&#8217;m not the type to actually hurt others either.  This is just me getting things out so that I don&#8217;t explode and get myself fired.  Also I don&#8217;t consider my self raciest and I apologies if I come across that way in this post. The new boss has given MY shift that I have worked for months to someone that has only been there for two months.  The way I see it, the person he gave MY hours to is of the same ethic background.  Looks a little odd to me.  Also pisses me off  because the one that was given the hours has another job.  This is a SECOND JOB for that person.  Where as me.  I need the hours; I&#8217;m trying to afford a new car.  Very hard to do when I only get 150 a week.  Can someone see where I&#8217;m coming from?  Moving on to the homicidal thoughts part.  Any time the boss is around I can&#8217;t concentrate.  Only thing I can think is that he&#8217;s just not worth the prison time.  And I have to admit that if killing were legal I world have killed him but now.  Hell I&#8217;d settle for major bodily disfigurement and or a serious mind fuck.  But I&#8217;m not good with the mind games.   Nor do I think I&#8217;m good enough to get away with murder.  So I have to hope either someone kills him instead of me or he die in some horrible, and preferably excruciatingly painful accident.   I hear that pulling out finger nails and toe nails hurts, or busting kneecaps.  I could go back a little older and more fatal and say making him swallow a hot piece of coal.   (Feel free to leave your ideas in the comments) I get the feeling that the boss doesn&#8217;t like me.  That he&#8217;s trying to get rid of me.  I already have spoken with the head of HR about his lying to me.  Yes, the bastard LIED TO ME!! More than once!  This time he calls me says carwash person called off, I get into work and find out that he NEVER SCHEDULED ANYONE.  And the person that called off was only supposed to work until 10 pm.  I was still going to be closing alone.  Something I am not comfortable doing in my neighborhood.  But he keeps doing it.   I &#8216;m having vivid dreams where I get to kill the man.  From scissors to the throat to rigging a bomb to the mans car.  I know he has a family but me being me I just don&#8217;t give a shit.  I&#8217;m nearly to the point where I&#8217;m going to start thinking that it&#8217;s doing the world a favor by killing him.  I know that if he dies a great many coworkers of  mine will celebrate.  And that is just a sad thing to say.  Who am I kidding; there is nothing sad about it.  (Very long pause)  Just talked to the boss and let him knows a few things.  He wanted to know if I can switch my shift with someone and close again&#8230;*take deep breaths, don&#8217;t take anger out on the keyboard*&#8230;Yes all of my ranting and raving boils down to the same point I have been saying for a while. I HATE MY BOSS!!  But you know I think I&#8217;ll survive. * I will survive by Cake begins*</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So *sigh*.  Where to begin?  Of course I am in deed still alive, for better or worse. (more for the worst these days).  Gosh it&#8217;s been so long since I have updated this thing, I am really at a loss of where to start.  I guess the good news would be a nice place so here it goes&#8230;.Well I can&#8217;t think of anything there.  Now bad news&#8230;Work, that&#8217;s where it starts.    Since I have last updated several things have happened.  Most notably new management.  Old manager was demoted and then we didn&#8217;t have an official manager (although Don was doing a great job) now we have Ronnie.  There are several words I could use  to describe him, but for sake of time I&#8217;ll just call him a coward and a prick.    When we lost the last manager it seem my hopes of moving up were pushed back.  I was going to be getting Don&#8217;s job when he got pulled into management, but now&#8230;I have to wait.  Ronnie brought with him his coordinator, she pretty much took my job, and yes i&#8217;m pissed about it, but i&#8217;ll stick with it only because I wont quit.  That is the start of it all.  And it just goes down hill from there.  Didn&#8217;t have a good first impression of her either.  She seems to have this attitude that she&#8217;s above us other workers.  Well she starts the 28th and that will mark the official beginning of Hitler&#8217;s reign.   He wants to wait until after the holidays to have a team meeting, bullshit.  He wants to wait until he has backup before he start pointing out what we&#8217;re doing wrong.  Yea, coward.   When a former employee got transferred into the store he was too scared to tell her in person.  He waited and had me tell her she wasn&#8217;t on the schedule and to have her call HR.  Then he didn&#8217;t even bother to tell me that I didn&#8217;t get the job that his coordinator ended up getting.  He says he didn&#8217;t have have a say in who got the job, another lie.  The last day of the interviews, he told me he had to go and talk with Joe, (HR manager).  So there is no way I was going to believe that.  I&#8217;m just waiting to see hoe long  it takes for everyone to quit of get transferred.  He&#8217;s a manager.  He doesn&#8217;t open, close, or work weekends.  That&#8217;s jacked up.  So I could go on for quite a while, but bottom line is I don&#8217;t like him or his poor excuse, bitch coordinator.  Now I must see about the game plan for the evening.  Hope there is game.  I&#8217;m going through withdrawal .</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Short post today.  More of a second hand account of something that happened at work, the wonder world of Carwash, last night.</p>
<p>So, yes the carwash is dead.  Now to go into detail I need to mention that we have a new guy.  He&#8217;s nice and all on the inside, I&#8217;m sure, but his customer service skills leave much to be desired.  It&#8217;s sad when I have to tell him not to have a dum dum sucker hanging out of his mouth when he is <img src='http://s1.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_surprised.gif' alt=':o' class='wp-smiley' /> ne talking to customers and two: trying to speak without taking it out of his mouth.  So he has no skills when it comes to people.  That being said, apparently, Don tells Junius to have Anderw work out in carwash, carwash is easy, you help the customers at the portal, guide them into the bay, spray on the pre-soak stuff, them hit the dolly button to push them through.  that&#8217;s it.  Simple as that right?  Well around seven o&#8217;clock that night Don gets a phone call from Junius. &#8220;You remember how we thought carwash was easy?&#8221;  Any call that starts like that cannot be good.  Don was thinking that it&#8217;s not a scratched car because Junius knows how to work the carwash,  knows what to do with scratched cars.  So no scratched cars (luckily).  &#8220;One of them things that pushes the cars through the carwash * pause* it broke off.&#8221;  &#8220;What?&#8221;  Apparently in the course of training Andrew the instructions that are said to the customers was lost and a guy in a large red truck didn&#8217;t put his truck in neutral and drove through the carwash.  That was mistake #1.  And in his hast too exit the bay at the end him speeding out of the bay snapped one of the dollies off.  This is a hydraulic powered conveyor.  How the hell do you break that. I didn&#8217;t think it was possible. Until now.  My jaw actually dropped when Don told me the story.  Then we watched the security footage of the truck exiting the bay and sure enough there was the truck and the dolly that it broke.  I shutter to think what damage her would do inside the store, but that will be their problem as he is being hastily transferred to there.  Don&#8217;t let that gut near the sharp objects.</p>
<p>Well that all for my little story.  Hope it was as entertaining to you as it was to me.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Had a really bad costumer at work today thought I would share with the masses as De said you would want to know. Here it goes</p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:x-small;">This dirty, gross guy probably in his late 40&#8242;s at least  comes in the store.  Nothing out of the ordinary there.  He goes back to the  beer section and is looking through what we have.  then yells across the the  store to get my attention.  That was a little annoying.  I head out around the  counter thinking it might have something to do with a misplaced price or  something of that nature.  Nope.  He then demands (how to phrases this) he  basically wants me to compare prices on the Heineken beer, between the 24 ounce  cans and the six pack.  He wants to know which one will he get more for his  money  with.  This requires a small amount of mental math.  I have to break it  down to fl.oz. I wont bore you with the simple math but apparently I was not  going fast enough for him and he looks at me and says &#8220;yous dumber thans me&#8221; and  no that is not  miss typed.  I am very insulted but this which increases when he  says he is going to go and get someone who is smart.  He then returns only  seconds later with another dirty smelling guy that speaks like he hasn’t hear a  word of proper English before and this guy goes through figuring out what I have  already told the first guy when I answered his question.  Was this the end of  it&#8230;.No.  Kevin had to run out and do a carwash leaving me to deal with the  bastards alone.  I start walking away as I see other customers walking into the  store and I need to be behind the counter.  The guy stops me and demands I help  him carry his alcohol to the counter.  I grab one to shut him up.  I place the  one I grabbed at my register in front of me and the guy, the stupid ig-it,  parents were probably siblings, asshole walks right by where I&#8217;m standing to the  other register.   I politely tell him I&#8217;m at the this register and he gets  mouthy at me saying I need to move down to the other register.  I have to  explain to him that that register isn’t mine and I can’t ring him out on that  one I needed him to move down to my register.  He does (yea for small victories)  complaining all the way.  It takes a minute to ring him out unfortunately and I  now have a line of about six other people. He finally leaves and I work on the  line. I manage to hold it together long enough for Kevin to return and help  clear the line.  Normally when I get very angry I cry, as embarrassing as it is  it happens.  Not this time.  I am beyond pissed.  Shacking, my hands are  cramping up, and my knuckles are bone white I look like I&#8217;m going to go on a  rampage that Kevin tells me I need to clock out for break before I explode. Once  there are no more costumers in the store I explain to Kevin what happen.  His  jaw just drops when I tell him and he tell me if I have another costumer treat  me like the again I have every right to kick them out of the store. That made me  smile.  So I sitting in the back on break reading so of the things I have  written for game  (Hex stuff) trying to calm down.  I realize I don’t remember  what time I am supposed to be back on the clock.  So I go back out to the punch  clock to see what time I clocked out and the guy was back at the counter cashing  in lottery tickets that he won money off of.  He sees me and tries to talk to  me.  It sad that just a voice can make me go from calm to want to jump the  counter and put a pair of scissors through the guys neck.  But I have much  better control than that.  I completely ignore him, don’t even acknowledge his  existence.  He makes a snide remark to Kevin about my ignoring him and Kevin&#8217;s  reply is maybe it’s because of what you said to her earlier.  It was so hard not  to turn around and laugh in his face.  The tone Kevin used was so perfect.  That  tone that says you were stupid and it’s your fault.  I have no doubt this  guy even knows what the phrase don’t poke the badger with a spoon means.  After  that he left, back out to his truck and yes it was a red beat up pickup truck.   Much like the kind you would find out in Appalachian territory.  If you know  what I mean.   This guy comes in another two times after that for who knows what  and I refused to deal with him because by this time I am back on the clock.   After the guy and whoever else he was with finally leaves the parking lot I hear  from Kevin he was harassing some of the female costumers.  Innuendos and the  like.  I had to agree with Kevin&#8217;s assessment that the guy&#8217;s mind was stuck in  the past and still believed that women were uneducated and only good for two  things.  That was how he acted.  Kevin had seen him in the store with his wife  and he treated her like shit. To me that is just unacceptable behavior.  I know  if I have to deal with him alone again he would me lucky to leave the store with  all his limbs attached. </span></p>
<p>Now you have hear the tale what do you think?</p>
