No, I won't work on your car. F* your car

+1 not to mention that since my boss allowed me to change my wheel bearings last night, and I didn't get outta here until about 7, (making it a 12 hour day...) there was absolutely NO energy left to drive down to the meet.

My 5:30 to 6:00 meeting ran until 7:30 (yes, someone scheduled a meeting starting 30 minutes after we're supposed to leave the office). So I didn't leave the office 'till after 8. That was only a 12 hour day... Wed I was there for 17 hours, and 10+ hours every other day this week (and pretty much since Jan for that matter). Fuck this job.

While the hours they work you SUCK, and I know it, I am forced to point out my friend, that it must be REALLY tiring sitting on your ass at a desk all day...

Sitting on your ass all day *is* tiring. Mainly because you aren't getting exercise, except to go to the vending machine, so everything starts to wind you.

Seriously. I need to walk more. I'm a freakin pansy when it comes to hiking, as I found out last week.

At this point, I'd much rather get my ass physically kicked by a job than spending 8 hours a day in meetings getting admonished for not getting enough work done... work that would be done if I wasn't in meetings 8 hours a day.

^8 hours of cart pulling will kick your ass....trust me...Costco carts are big and heavy and the Founder of Costco believes in good ole hard work, so that means no machines, just me and a rope...Too bad i really like the excercise...

I sit at a desk all day and stare at a computer. I've gotten more exhausted from this job than my last one...I was on my feet the whole time at my last job.

I personally love driving crappy cars!
When a shitty car gets you some where you want to go, you can't help but feel awesome. I'm sure everyone has driven that old piece of crap car that still has that fighting spirit, and just wants to keep going. My Ford Probe beat Pete's WRX, and Tim's Civic in a snow rally, running on 3 cylinders. Every time you get in that car you just think, "I might not make it home tonight." It's a joy unlike any other.

One the work deal, sitting behind a computer abusing your brain all day long is a whole different animal compared to a physical job. Trust me, I have had both. Residential framing will kick the snot out of any of you guys. Reading Building Code and translating it into Residential or Commercial plans makes my brain feel like a bowl full of snot.
