I've been scrambling like a motherfucker for the past couple weeks ttying to find extra work. The students have dropped off badly, the band certainly is helping but it's not enough, and I'm going to be behind on EVERYTHING soon.

The temp agency has been fucking worthless for three weeks. I'd signed up with a different one some time back, they just found me a joh today. It's SHIT, but I don't have any choice. I'll be making less money than I have anywhere else in the past year, and I have to get up at 4AM to work a really stupid shift. Who comes up with this shit? 5AM to 1:45PM? At last it doesn't conflict with the two nights I teach (I have to be there at 5PM) but this is nowhere near what I've been looking for. Going back on Mondays after the kind of weekends I pull is going to be hell.

I'll be there a while though. I don't have any fucking choice right now. I think I must have filled our 50 applications in the past few weeks, and haven't got SHIT from any of it.

Hopefully the beginning of school come August/September will boost the students back up. I've been shocked at how unreliable a source of income that's been. I've never dealt with as many students dropping out or just plain not showing up as I have since I took this on in January. It's still worth doing since it's still going to be bringing in half as much as I'll make at this new shit job in far less time, but it's not gone remotely as well as I thought it would.

Well, that's all I have on that shit. I've got a goddamn headache now.

Love,
Dougie

Another thing:
If these fucking companies are so uptight about their poorly-paid employees using drugs and they need these damn drug screens, THEY should fucking pay for it. I get to piss away nearly three hours of my first paycheck just so that some fucker who's sucking down martinis and antidepressants gets to feel safer because he knows I'm not smoking that nasty devil weed. I pass the fucking test, that's not a problem, because I don't do the shit they're looking for. But making ME pay for their hypocritical nonsense pisses me off. I hope they use my money wisely - you know, to buy some more scotch for the company president's corporate-sponsered birthday party. Lying hypocritical fucks.

They made YOU pay for that shit? That's the dumbest shit I ever heard of. I've been drug tested several times, but I never had to pay for it.

Yep. I did three or four for the other temp agency, never any issue. This one charged me, it's coming out of my first paycheck. For the privilege of a stupid piss test for a shitty job with shitty pay and shitty hours. And people wonder why I'm cynical about this fucking country and its stupid horseshit priorities. And why I'm pissed off about being to the point of having no choice but to put up with this shit, because I kinda need to pay rent and child support and eat and have electricity. You know, that dumb shit. Fucking people. At least the chick at the front desk was wearing a tight dress and had legs I'd kill to wrap around my head while I got down there and....I can't think of anymore metaphors for eating pussy. LOL
