Today I was working one of my previously common shifts; 11-8. This meant that it was actually worthwhile getting the bus in etc as more hours = more money. However, it turned out to be an atrocious day: I was really caught up by some things that had been done completely wrong by certain colleagues. It's really getting me annoyed, the way some people seem incapable of some simple tasks. I'm not getting at every one of my colleagues as though I'm all high and mighty; it's just a select number to whom this opinion is pretty much the thought throughout the store. The problems I had early on in the day coupled with all the annoyances and unhappiness caused by the job over the least couple of weeks meant I was pretty much ready to walk out by 1pm. I didn't but I am now becoming more and more keen on searching for a new job.
The evening was lined up to be a dull one, but I had a phonecall from Drew outlining plans for poker. I did indeed go along to this and it turned out to be a night that can best be described as "interesting". It was certainly productive and sporadically entertaining. I did not win the poker; that went to Goth Tom. After poker we briefly visited the Benleva before the remaining humans retired to Kitchen Banter. This was more of a planning session than general banter because we're all sick of being stuck in Drum and need to find ways of seeing more of the world. That doesn't mean spending more weekends in Inverness because it's just as putrid as Drum, only in different ways.
My eventual walk home at 2:30am was extremely pleasant as it was at the point where it was becoming light; a walk I have never really done before.
Song of the day is one that was described in the Kitchen Banter as being perfect for use in a simulator. It is the Jurassic Park theme and it is one of the most epic movie themes ever.
