All work and no play isn't making me dull but tired

So I have a job now. What else is there to say? Well actually there's a lot more to say about my job. Where should I start? The fact that I have to travel all the way out to Lake Forest? Or the traffic I have to go through every day? Whenever I think of that, I just think "Hey some people don't even have jobs, be thankful that you have one in the first place" of which I am. I thank Heavenly Father for blessing me with a job, and hey it pays that's all I have to say. Anyways so yeah the job is fine. All I do is take calls from people that own a Price Pfister faucet whether it be for the kitchen, bathroom, shower, or tub and troubleshoot their problems with it. Its fine, I haven't gotten a nightmare yet, though there was this lady that wanted to speak to my supervisor. It wasn't a big deal because my trainer was there and dealt with it. But yeah occasionally people will complain about the sink not working blah blah blah. The thing is the faucets are lifetime warranty, so if they need replacement parts and what have you, they call us. There's an occasional person that will say "Well I owned a Moen and I had no problems blah blah blah." My thing or thought is, if they said they had no problem with a Moen, then why the heck did they buy a Price Pfister faucet in the first place? Whatever I don't care about those people because its their fault for buying the faucet.
So yeah work load isn't that bad, but they're I think about to change what my job is. Like I do customer service right now, and so they might change that to be more clerical work and what have you. Of which I don't mind at all, kind of thankful because that way I don't have to talk to people about their problems and their beef with the company. On to talking about the driving. Man I hate driving. I used to like driving...like since I didn't get to drive much in Idaho because I didn't have a car, I loved it when Curt asked me if I could drive or asked me if I'd like to drive. Now I detest driving. At first when I started, I had to drive all the way to Lake Forest (close to Irvine) and that took me about a good hour to get out there. Now I'm beginning to carpool with a couple girls in the near by (or at least kinda in the near by) area of where I am. So now I just drive to Corona and then one of the other girl's drives out to Lake Forest. The first time I went out carpooling, the chick's car caught on fire. That was pretty long day. But yeah it used to take an hour to get home, now it take an hour and a half to get home. The 91 freeway gets more and more crowded, I just don't understand why that is, but it is what it is. Like I swear just to get from the 241 freeway to the 91, probably a good 45 minutes, bumper to bumper traffic. The girl that drives is slightly heavy set and wears the most warm looking business clothes I've ever seen. My thought is how do you stand sitting in the sun in a black LONG SLEEVED shirt. Just looking at her I start feeling hot.
Anyways the training for the job was only supposed to be 2 weeks, but instead they're extending it another 2 weeks :(. It kinda pissed me off, but when the head manager of customer service came and told me that they'd reinburse me for my gas, I was thinking, freakin' heck yes. Shoot I would even vote for a company car that I could drive, but that's really not logical. So I should be moving to the real location of the job which is Mira Loma after the 4th of July weekend. I went to the office for one day and it took me a total of like 15 minutes. Wow....only 15min. Now compare that to an hour/hour and a half of driving or being in a car. ACK! seriously I can't wait till I get to drive that short of distance. But seriously the job is draining me of my energy because I have to drive so much and what have you. All I want is a freakin' break, which for sure I'll get next month :D. But as that saying goes "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy" well fit my name in and I feel like its making me feel dull. More so tired than dull, but slowly I'll become a boring person that sits behind a desk typing away and getting carpal tunnel...........man I hope not.........

A Sitting Duck

Soooo yeah...I still don't think I can keep up with a blog to be all honest. Makamae bugs me saying "you need to put a new blog up"...how often are you supposed to write in these things? On the real if there was something exciting to tell by all means I'd write something, but no there's nothing to write about. I guess today was kinda of a good day...ish...maybe b/c my "job hunt" or my lookout for a job was pretty good. I got a call from the temp agency and there's a possible job opening in Mira Loma. Nothing is definite until the temp agency can actually land me a job, it just seems like there's a lot of customer service jobs. That's what the job is customer service for Black and Decker....so I'm hoping. The pay is rounding about $11-12/hr so who knows maybe I'll get it. But seriously I feel pointless sitting at home making no money....its not that fun I dare say. It feels weird b/c I'm not going to school either. Like I want to start the massage therapy, but I feel like I can't start that until I can land a job. I'm just really tempted to go out and get a part time job doing something....just not food related. I hate working w/ food.

So since I have so much time on my hands I get to hang out with friends more. Past 3 weeks I've been going to the beach once a week :D. Many do I love the beach, but my shoulders aren't liking that too much. I got burned lik three times on the shoulders and I'm getting flaky...ack! It sucks because it never was that way when I was little, but as I'm getting older I'm getting more sunburned. I think it has to do with #1 age and #2 that's what Idaho does to your skin. Though I'm hoping as the summer progresses I won't get as sunburned. I'll probably get skin cancer sooner than I'd like, its either that or I'll get really wrinkly by the age of 30.

Now What?

So life at home in Cali isn't that great, but its not horrible at all. Finding a new job, well I guess it takes more than just depending on a temp agency. All I'm doing right now is waiting on a job. They first got me set up with a job that sounded great and I was so anxious and excited about it. Then a week before I start, they don't "need" me any more. It was one of the biggest let downs I've had in my life. I thought "Man I can finally get things going, getting a higher pay. Now I can start saving up for a car and school...." In a sense I kinda felt like a kid again. Its like telling a kid "Oh we're going to Disneyland next week" and then telling them they're not goin after all. Right now I'm just trying to see the greater light of the situation. Maybe its a better time for me to do other things...I don't know. Everyone says if life gives you lemons make lemonade or look at the brighter side of things. It is kinda hard for me to see a brighter side. Throughout it all I can hope and pray for the best. Maybe Heavenly Father has something greater for me in store, who knows really. So now what? Its weird because Tutu (my grandma) is moving back to Hawaii this weekend. Its sad because I don't know when I'll ever get to see her again. She said that this move back to Hawaii is the last trip she's going to make. After growing up with her here most of my life and seeing her go, mades me sad. Without her here its hard to live at home more so, its just me, Pono, and my dad. Again it makes me sad, so now what? I'm kinda worried about things now how are bills going to be paid? How is this summer going to go (considering gas prices are rising like crazy)? Again I just hope and pray for the best.
