Today was my first day of sales at my job. I did horribly the first part of the day, mainly because I had a customer that wanted me to help him select all the parts for the computer he wanted to build himself. On top of that he got all items that were on sale and didn't get any extended warranties with any of it, which left me with nothing to show for the hours I spent helping him. The rest of the morning went pretty bad, everthing was real slow and I had two other associates steal some customers from me.The second half of the day went well for me however, sales starting picking back up in the afternoon, and after work I went over to a friend's house to chill. I ended up staying with him and some other friends until 10:30 at night. The later part of the night was spent trying to fix a pipe in his car, but he needs some new heads to completely fix it up. We told jokes to each other, especially white / mexican racist jokes. Lucky for me I was hanging with mexicans that don't get offended over stereotypical jokes.I hope tomorrow will start out a lot better then today did. If I can get on a roll, I won't ever stop. I'll sell everything in that store, and then I'll sell the store itself. I just really need the money right now. I have debt that needs to be paid off, a pre-saved sum of money for my move out to Bakersfield in january, and bills I just wish would go away for just one month. I haven't been sleeping well lately, a lot of stress can do that I guess. Last night I only for 3 hours of sleep, and then had to get up at 5am to get ready for work. Tonight I'll sleep better though, the lack of sleep the last few nights will knock me out long before 3am.
Maybe it's just me, but your days off work almost always bare bad news. My city is in danger of being burnt down to the ground by a 30,000 acre forest fire at the moment, as well as my best friend who lives in the next city over. Both of us are on full evacuation standby. Any moment those fires could jump a few miles our way and burn down everything in their path. It's ok though, I'm so hot anyway that it wouldn't harm me at all!
Friends are flaking left and right. People you thought you could trust and depend on turn on you and leave you left out in the cold. My philosohpy of having one true friend instead of many friends still holds true it seems. I never stop trying to make new friends, or help people I like, but I never count on anyone to be there for me anymore. It's just not worth the letdown. My best friend Mike would never leave me or flake out on me. He'd give me a shirt right off his back if I needed it, and he has. That's more than I can say about anyone else I know.
The few dreams I have left, I'm going for. I aspire to be a musician, comedian, owner of my own computer company, or to rule the world. I've already started writing lyrics down and so far they've come out really well, if I do say so myself. I've even made posters in Photoshop to promote my band. I'm also working on my comedy sketch, and hopefully I turn out as funny as my comedian heros like Dennis Leary, Lewis Black, Ron White, and George Carlin. I'm also sketching rough drafts of blueprints for new ideas and inventions I have, after I patent them, I'm going to offer to sell them to companies and corporations for mulah.
What's up my fellow genicons. Today I got promoted at my job, to sales. Starting next week, I'll be pulling in a lot of extra money in commision. I'm a star seller at my job already, I know what I'm talking about and I can explain things in simple terms, so everyone understands what I'm selling them. Plus I'm just so damn hot that they can't resist it when I say "would you like an extended warranty with that?".
Tonight was strange, I sat down outside to smoke, drink, and generally relax after a rough day, when I looked over at my neighbors house and saw her come out into her garage, fully naked. Apparently she likes to do the laundry in the nude. Oh well, I like to sing in the nude myself, so I won't judge her too quickly.
At the end of the year I'm moving out to Bakersfield, CA. I'll be doing working in the oil fields, extremely tough work, but I'll be making close to $5,000 a month, and with a full, brand new apartment with utilities included for $500 a month, I'll be on the way to a very well paying career. I plan on owning my own house in 2 years, as well as a brand new car and several nifty household toys that I can show off to all my friends that always have the latest and greatest.
