my job rules.

About a month ago I guess, I got some business cards. They're pretty cool, they have my name, and title (editor/compositor) and email and whatnot on them. I give them to my friends to let them know that Im important. Other than that I just keep a few in my wallet to drop in fish bowls that offer hopes of free lunch. Well today my ship has come in. I've never won anything my whole life...that I can remember, until today. I got the call and was told that I have an all expenses paid trip to Los Amigos Mexican Restraunt for me and 9 or 10 of my friends. I can taste the melted cheese and red burrito sauce even now. I don't know if I should invite co-workers or friends. Im not sure that my co-workers would care to eat free cheap mexican with me. Im pretty sure my friends would. We'll see.

Also my shower at home has been clogged for a while, and hopefully right now my land lord has a long metal thingiee stuffed down some pipes pulling the grossness out of the water's way so I can shower at home soon. But last night I took a shower here at work. It was kinda like in the movie Elf when the cute girl is in the shower and Will Ferrel discovers her and sings along. I was that cute girl, except I wasn't singing, no Will Ferrel, it was night and not morning, and the shower here is much smaller than the one in the movie. But nonetheless I took a shower where I work, which is the place that I also get paid to deficate, and check my email, and blog about it all, and am provided with business cards so that I can get free mexican lunches for myslef and 9 friends, and start the cycle of gettin' paid for all of the above all over again. I have the best job in the world.

So what if you get insurance and a super cool office ... that job is worth it for the shower and free mexican!

sounds kind of like my job. i read news on the interweb and write articles about it all day, in between all the other things you said.

you live downtown don't you? clint and i are moving downtown in may and are looking for a good apartment. would you suggest yours?

Liz said...

i mean, like, your building. not your actual apartment.

just in case there was any confusion....

Liz, yep I live downtown. It's a pretty cool place, even taking into consideration the tub drain problem, which the land lord fixed pretty quickly. The draw back is that none of the apartments have washer drier hook ups. Thats a problem that I ran into with most old places around here.
There are some good websites that list a bunch of apartments, but the best luck I had was driving around the area that I wanted to move and getting phone numbers off of signs.
(I'll post some links to the sites I know...Ive got a few friends looking up this way)
