Another Four Years....

...like that's suppose to be a good thing, right? I don't think so. Towards the end of last year, I, along with countless others saw what the next four years would kind of be.

First, it feels strange to be off on weekends, even stranger to have a 3 day weekend. Probably would've had a great old time if it wasn't for the flu, thing bug that traveling around New York City. It would've been nice if all the sick people stayed home too. But the way things are, who can afford to stay home. Sooooo, I caught whtever the fuck it was thats out there. Tightness of the chest, coughing, stuffy nose AND sneezing. Feel a lot better thanks to Buckley's...some nasty ass shit too.

Since I got sick on a Friday, I turned my cell phone off for the whole weekend. I turned it on on Sunday. Try that sometimes, turn your phone off for the weekend. Either people will go crazy trying to contact you and wondering if you're okay, or they just don't give a fuck about you. Turns out people are VERY concerned about me. Made phone calls and was told I sounded like shit and I should go to the hospital. I say if I'm not losing a limb, I stay away from that place. Besides who wants to sit there for 12 to 14 hours before you are being seen.

I watch some of the ceremonies, the swearing in of both the Vice Pres and The Pres. The biggest party I've ever seen was all that it was. One of my mother's friend was invited, and didn't she tell me to watch and see if I saw her friend on TV. Things are changing already. On Friday at work, HR came in and told all the full timers that they were being dropped down to part timers. There was a moment of silence, then she left...THEN all hell broke out. Me being a part timer already, knew the deal. I mentioned a couple of weeks before to one of my teammates that something like this was going to happen. He said no it wasn't, I told him we aren't Union, so expect it to happen. Talk of leaving the job and finding full time work...not happening. EVERYONE, ALL EMPLOYERS will be doing this. You won't see the full effect until after Summer Break though, gonna ease into the transition. people should read and watch the news sometime.
