For real back to school

Well, I don't really have the blues that school started again, since I basically like graduate school. However, over the summer as some of you may know I was job hunting. Just for a summer job. Teaching college is enough for me during the year. But nobody would hire me, except Kroger for one day. I've told the story a bunch of times, but basically they thought I was black (which I guess I didn't mind, except it was a little awkward. I've had to correct people on my ethnic background a lot in my life, and it's always a little embarrassing), and also they refused to tell me how much I would be getting paid. Every time I asked them they would act like it was some ridiculous, unrealistic question. So I quit.

But then I got hired by Bor- I mean, Shmorders (company blog policy forbids us to use the name of the store in a blog. Seriously.), which would be fine, except it was A WEEK BEFORE SCHOOL STARTED. So I've been working there, but I don't know if I can keep it. On the bright side, I don't really care about the job (unlike every motherfucker who works there, for some reason - we get paid $7.50/hr), so I basically just roll my eyes and act sarcastic to customers a lot. Those of you who know me know that it takes me a long time to quit a job. Like when I tried to quit Publix and the manager cried, so I said I'd keep working there. For some reason I feel honor-bound to this Unnamed Mega Book Store. I mean, they're paying us $7.50/hr, which is garbage.

So maybe I'll quit one day. Who knows? The job sucks and I wish I had it three months ago. But too late.
