I know it is a holiday weekend for some, I could tell because I actually got a seat on the bus on the way to work this morning. Yes the holiday isn't until Monday, but never underestimate the feeling of some that if a holiday occurs on Monday, their laziness will precipitate not working on Friday just to make a three day weekend a four day one.
Nothing really all that new to report, I am just biding my time at work waiting for the right moment to sit down and talk to Ed about my compensation going forward. I have a number in mind that I believe is fair, but that number does come with conditions, mostly that I am free to do my job as it needs to be done. Whether he will see things my way has yet to be determined. If not I do have the job offer where I can pick up some extra cash, I have already talked to them about working part time around my existing schedule and they would be open to that, so if I can't get more money with one job, I can always get more money with two of them.
The baseball game must be letting out, the first stop after the casino in PNC Park and a bunch of people just boarded the subway. Maybe I should have left the casino earlier, I would have more money and fewer drunken assholes to deal with. Personally is I want to deal with drunken assholes I will just jam a bottle of Red Stripe up my rectum and viola, problem solved.
It looks like I will be running the dog and pony show solo at work on Monday, Dee is taking the day off so yours truly will be doing all of the paperwork, as well as plenty of other things. We just got a new freezer in today, and I have to make ready for deliveries come Tuesday.
Steel Plaza, everybody off the subway. Okay, not everybody, but more than me. Time to transfer from subway to bus to complete the trip to Oakland. I still have a stop to make on the way home, I need some beverage in ye olde household. Food is taken care of, I am just going to reheat the meatballs I had last night when I made meatball sandwiches and French fries. I know, I know, I astound you with my cooking abilities, especially when they consist of heating something up. You should see what I can do with a microwave.
Okay, snagged a 61B, that should get me to where I need be. In fact it is probably a better option than any of the 71 buses because it leaves me off a block closer to my ultimate goal of getting home. I was also smart enough to catch a bus heading into town first, that way I guaranteed myself of getting a seat, not a given if I would have caught the bus as it was leaving town and tried boarding the bus with more drunken baseball fans. Not sure which they are bigger fans of, baseball or beer.
Anyway, I probably should put the iPad away. I am about five minutes from where I am going and typing and shopping don't mix. Nor does typing while walking with my hands full, so better to nip that problem in the bud by packing this up. Till later, toodles.
