So I gotta wake up at 6:30am which is roughly the time that I can't sleep until 2 or 3 days per week. It'll be rough. I called the juror hotline to make sure that it wouldn't tell me that I didn't have to go in. The message said that I have to be there.

I am praying that it won't take too long. I need rest. I could go for a nap I am sure before I go into my second job since I will be there at least 7pm til 2am.

I'll do my civic duties but I hope that if I get thrown onto a jury that it'll be a quick case so I can get some lunch to bring home, catch the next train, walk home, eat and nap before work.

At least after this week my schedule should be more normal..albeit working 65 hours plus 25+ hours on mass transit. But it'll be easier for me when I'm doing it by routine.

Sleep well pals.

work ad infinitum
Friday. 2.22.08 2:39 am
So here's what my average week will be looking like:



























Monday Hess: 2-10pm (alone)
Tuesday All Star: 7pm-1am
Wednesday Hess: 2-10pm (2-5 alone)
Thursday Hess 2-10pm (alone)
Friday Hess: 2-10pm (2-5 alone) & All Star: 11pm-4am
Saturday Hess: 5-10pm & All Star 11pm-4am



So yes, I will be working 7 days per week probably every week until the week that I have to move. But Sunday and Tuesday allow me to sleep in a bit and perhaps see a movie or do something 'interesting' . The days that I am alone at Hess turn out to be the most exhausting despite the fact that Fridays I leave the apartment at 11:30am to catch my train. Work a full shift at Hess. Catch the bus and train home. Then go to work at All Star for 5 more hours which involves nonstop running around because of how busy it is and then not get home until after 4:30am.

All Star is pretty decent. May pay is in cash each Wednesday. We get tips each night usually. And on Sunday and Tuesday when I work the longer shifts there I get to pick something out to eat for free which is a big help! Especially since I love their food.

Now this upcoming week will be weird and most likely even MORE exhausting because I have jury duty on Wednesday. So I will work at Hess alone Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. I lose 5 hours of a shift working with someone like I do on Wednesdays. And I'll probably go in after jury duty to All Star. So it should be another free meal, the same hours/money I'll be getting on an average week plus whatever I get for jury duty. But the two downsides are I lose one of my sleep-in days which also includes "free time" to do something fun and an extra 8 hour shift alone at Hess. But hopefully it'll go back to the schedule listed above after this week.

If things hold out like this there is the distinct possibility that I could end up working over 120 days straight again without a date off. I've done it before. Hell, it's how I was able to purchase my previous car. Which is another reason that my Neon meant so much to me. It was a symbol of my working my ass off to get something I really wanted...and more importantly...needed. But hopefully when it's time to move I'll be able to get a nice place to move into, get an even better car than I had anticipated, get myself a couple nice things I wouldn't have been able to get without all these hours...and the peace of mind that the buffer money would mean.

On top of all this, the owners of All Star had told Chad that while they'd been wanting a Web site for quite some time they really felt that it was the time to have one made. Chad told them that Web design/development is what my degree is in (that and business management). It sounds like i've been given the go-ahead to work on it. I will make up some designs and upload them and give them the links. Once they decide what one they like we'll discuss what they want on it then I'll populates the pages with the necessary info. This could mean both 1) MORE MONEY and 2) something pretty decent to put into my Web portfolio. Plus it gives me yet something else to do to feel that I am earning money 24/7.

I think that's about it for now. It was quite a lot.
I just wanted to get this posted so that one may better understand any lags in updating that may occur. But I hope that the extra money will lead to me doing more interesting stuff which gives me that much more new stuff to blog about. And once I move and possibly go back to just one job and have even more time to do stuff that will be thrilling to read about.

Okay.

Time to eat the salad that I paid for at All Star when I got off the train which Chad is bringing home in a few minutes. Then sleep..in preparation for a VERY, VERY busy/tiring week.

Wish me luck.
Thank you, amigos.
