I've been drilling Japanese into my head faithfully for the past week or so.
Call it cramming. Along side of work, exercise, and the terraforming of myself for better things
I think I'm having a pretty productive end of the first half of the year. Though there is still so much I wanna accomplish.
I feel like i posted this before, so if I did, OH WELL!
I got my results back from the fire dept. and I scored 100 on the entrance exam.
Sounds like good news to me, but I was o-so close to going back to school. Will this be another setback? Or a launchpad?
Only time will tell. I'm kinda excited, I gave up on the PFD but they surprised me. My bigger fear is still being under the cape of working for the city of Philly.
I've seen how much they care about their staff, and it is almost directly correlated to public opinion. I've worked for them for about 4 years now,
under probably the buttcheek of city law enforcement jobs here and they show us love. They show us 2am drunken hooker love.
We asked for change and got tipped. I mean literally. We asked for a lil increase, some backpay that they owed us for many years and to ya know
give us a lil more respect like the cops and the firefighters get. Instead, we got a check for $1000. That after it gets taxraped will become $700.
Which is less than a basic check, from when you first start.
So for the 4 years that I've droned under these people,
I've got none of the raises I was promised, not of the solutions we were told, and yelled at for not wanting to come to work.
Now the city opens its lovely arms once more, to accept me to the Princes of the City. The Fire Department.
What in the hell makes you think I trust you cunts anymore than I can swim?
[and I can't swim]
Well. Atleast my brother is in school, and seems to be doing well. I hope the future treats him brilliantly.
@angriestlittleasiangirl I love you, that is all.
