Overstaffed. Too many people, and not enough hours. It came down to me and another person, but she had been there longer, and knew the job better.

Luckily, my boss is awesome, and was trying to help me think of other places that were hiring. She said she'd give me any recommendation I ask for. I think I'm just going to get a factory job, and suck it up so I can get the money I need to move,t LEAST 2K, but I'm having a hard time even paying my damn bills now. Full time hours at >$9/hr (most places here hire for around $13 from what I've heard), I just have to suck up the shitty factory position until I have the money.

Also planning on building pedals to sell here, too. I'm not 100% on the schematics, but I have plans for stuff I haven't seen anywhere else, honestly. It's just a matter of getting the money for the parts, so I can work out the stages. Hopefully I can get the money in my tax return.

My history decided to tell us in an email at 9:00 pm that our test first thing in the morning is cumulative.

EDIT: Alsoooo, I guess I didn't mention that I already had two jobs and only lost one. :erm: It still means that I don't have the money to totally support myself, but I'm not completely out of luck, just in a shitty spot.

Go take the weirdest classes you can find. I ended up in a semester taking the Philosophy of Water, Anglo-Jewish History from the 1600-2000s, Byzantine History, and Chicano History. It was a fun semester.

Someone's been driving by my house and honking for a few weeks now. It's always the same silver car, and it's always the same honk. I figured that it had nothing to do with me until earlier today, because I was in the driveway with my mom and they honked again. Then while I was walking home, a FEW BLOCKS from my house, THE SAME CAR RODE BY AND HONKED. I do not recognize this car.

I'm also getting worried that it has something to do with the restricted calls I've been getting that hangup after I talk. Last time, I waited to see if someone said something, heard background noise (tv?) and said "Hello?" and it hung up.

Probably unrelated things, but I can't help but wonder if it's some kind of crazy stalker who's building courage to kill me.


Write down the license plate, find out to who it's registered to, and when you get another call, say: "Hi _______, I've been awaiting your call".
Also, act like it's an old friend. Don't be scared, don't panic, you have to be relaxed, keep your head cool and you'll gain the upperhand and hopefully resolve the situation without anything stupid happening. It can always end up being a fat hippo girl that wants you but has no guts or sth.
Stalk the stalker.

Badass plan. I'm going to try it. I don't know if you can find out who a car is registered to in my state, though.


Any updates? :D

So I've been waiting for like a week and a half for new amp, and it comes today with 2 of the power tubes missing. :mad:

Is it that Marshall Super Lead Clone?

Fuck that shit is whack dude,...but if it had the stock tubes in it,...you'd probably want to change em out anyway. I know a good set of output tubes will set you back,...still pretty lame.

If it was an ebay deal,....fuck up his feedback yo.

Nah, it was the evil empire's used section (GC). So all I had to do was whine and bitch and ask for a manager, and they're sending me two tubes for free.

They're JJ EL34s, not sure if that is the stock one or not. We'll see. I'm not gonna drop any serious coin on it unless I fall totally in love with it and start using it as my main amp.

Well,...considering it's a clone from a Chinese company,...stock tubes are likely Cheap Chinese Made,...so JJ's will should be an improvement.

It frustrates me to no end how many people think I'm some kind of spoiled loser.
Them: Man, how can you afford all this music stuff, did your family buy it for you?
No, I bought it myself, I have all this stuff because I don't buy anything else like people my age.
No video games, no fucking headphones, no shoes, no coats.
They don't get that I dedicate all my money to gear.
the only thing my parents buy me are clothes (nothing expensive) and food.
ILF is only one of two places where anybody gets it.
