Photo ID cards… let’s ban them.
First off, my computer is in the middle of it’s own menopausal hot flash – yeah, she’s getting up there in age – and has decided not to let me use Word anymore so I’m writing this blog off some ghetto version of notebook or scratch pad or scrap paper. Something like that. If the spelling is a bit off – more than usual anyway – blame my elderly memory chip/gallbladder.
As long as she doesn’t start having an incontinence problem, I think I can work around it.
I didn’t realize how much I relied on that stupid spelling red squiggly line until I noticed… I mispelled my own name on my last e-mail.
Rebekha rebakhe rebeccah. It’s like being in the first grade all over again and wondering why my mom decided to make me ‘special’ and spell my name oddly.
I started the new job and I love it… with two exceptions:
1.) They make us wear photo badges.
As per usual (*note: please see my drivers license for a gleaming example)…
my photo makes me look like I stood on the shores of Hiroshima during the drop of the Atom Bomb.
I knew I should have called Glamour Shots before reporting to work or… at least showered. Whatever. I’ve been cursed by the photo gods so I quit trying.
2.) I work one floor from the top of a high rise building.
It sounds great… until you realize the buildings were created to move with the earth, the weather, the wind, the 90 pound guy who leans on the building to smoke…
When was the last time YOU got motion sickness at your desk?!?!
I’m still working for the ‘Big Box Store’ at night. I put in my notice so I’ll be pulling 13 hour days for the next two weeks solid. It sounded easy until I did it yesterday and thought I’d die from exhaustion.
Two weeks?
At least I won’t have time to spend money.

You can do it … take naps if you can, keep your eyes on the prize, eat healthy foods if you can and drink lots of water. That’s the only way I get through 13 hour days.
