A boss of mine almost died

The admin everybody hates nearly drove off a cliff. I lol'd.

He drove late one night to a city on the other half of the island. He was sleepy and tired and obliviously, he sped towards the edge of a cliff. There was a tree, unfortunately, that kept him from his demise.

Student money went to fixing that expensive service car.

Meh, i shouldn't be thinking about this.

I sort of killed a bird

The sun was high, humidity was low, and I thought it was going to be a beautiful day until my trisikad driver and his trisikad accidentally ran-over a bird.

I was on the sikad on my way to work and I SAW IT DIE A VIOLENT DEATH.

The driver and I were about to depart when a bird settled over a pile of burnt garbage probably to forage for food. It took us about half a second to realize what was going to happen, but it was too late. The sikad's front wheel rolled over the bird JUST AS IT WAS ABOUT TO ESCAPE. I turned around and saw the poor thing twitching and squirming until it gave out its final sigh.

*SIGH



The sickening crunch of tiny avian bone matter will forever haunt my mind... so to blogger, it must go!

Getting lost in my own city

I have no sense of direction.

I get lost easily if I travel by foot. Yesterday afternoon, I went to the printers to pick up a tarpaulin. It's a good twenty minute ride from the school but I ended up taking forty minutes, maybe even more, because there's a short distance to walk from where I get off.

I've been to the place before but I couldn't remember shat where exactly it was.

The sun was partly covered by an overcast sky. It rained that morning and from where we are on the globe so it was ridiculously humid. Add that to almost half an hour of walking across the city

So i found the place and grabbed the tarp, walked out and lol unknowingly took a different route to where the jeepneys were.

And then it rained.
:mad:

I ended up missing a photo-shoot.

Long strip is long

I showed up an hour late for work... but everything's awwwight
Work every Saturday begins at 7:30.

I suspected nothing

It's nothing special

I asked my boss if I could get a raise since have a spanking new job description... he's not the one to decide, he says, and that I should ask HR about it.

But HR already said no.

Title change

So today i get my appointment letter and I'm the least bit enthusiastic about it.
No increased pay.

It's just a title and the school does not know how much a graphics artist is really worth.
I asked HR how come and they said:

"It's a new job position."

Fuck my life but meh, i can't really complain much.

Pumped up

I asked around a bit, the change of title is not as bright and shiny as it seems :(

Important memo

I just got a letter saying they're changing my title from Staff to Creative Multimedia Anchor, which is awesome!

Dissapointment

Today, I made a boo-boo - I didn't follow up on a newspaper print ad for a priest's birthday. An admin who asked me to make the ad called me to his office and told me

"... go look for another place to work"


:(

He was a tactless priest. Worst day ever, but meh I don't want to look for another job, not yet at least. I'm taking it semi-lightly.
