First Day of Work
So today was my first day of work. I'm working at the Oakwood Worldwide warehouse, where my job is "Utility Worker" or something like that. Basically it means I do all sorts of minor work and get paid a nice amount of money for doing it. It equates to about $65-$70 a day for 8 hours of work for minimal labor. Today was spent taking plates and bowls and mugs out of their original boxes and put them together in little dinner sets. We made 69 of these boxes and will go back and make a ton more tomorrow. I can't complain at all.
We then went back to his house and watched Tron, which I had never seen before and liked. It will make for an exciting level in Kingdom Hearts II, that's for sure. I kinda wish I had a lightcycle but oh well.
Speaking of Kingdom Hearts II, it should ship tomorrow, which hopefully means it will be waiting for me when I get back from Florida. That would be really nice, but nothing could ever top the mastery of overnight shipping that was Gran Turismo 4 last year.
Hopefully I'll get some more grades back tomorrow, that'd be good.
In other news, the Senate defeated the ANWR provision in the Defense appropriations bill. So I can think that I actually accomplished something, though I bet both Moran and Warner voted for the bill. Oh well, I can dream, can't I? And I think Ryan would be proud of my action in democracy.
I'm currently trying to set up Mom's XM radio, since she got a new one since the old one was craptastic. Hopefully this one will be less sucky. The concept itself is awesome; the sound quality was just horrendous for some reason.
Tomorrow I will have to figure out things to buy for my family. They all deserve Christmas presents and so I shall buy them. I will have to figure out what to buy them though.
That's all for now.
