The Virginia Workforce Connection website (run by the state government!) is the worst website ever. They have the shittest, scammiest jobs on there.

Re: How Was Your Day?
Yeah, I went to my local Virginia Employment Commission last year because I remembered what resources the VEC is supposed to have due to training at my old job (I was supposed to help recruit laid off people at VEC offices to attend community college in the form of a grant, that didn't really pan out like it was supposed to) . All the dude did was show me that website and sent my resume to some SOOPER DOOPER EXCLUSIVE JOBS (not).

I finally got a new computer!
Also, my mother and I went on a walk. It was snowing a little and looked really pretty outside. Unfortunately, some of the sidewalks weren't plowed and we both fell on black ice. Fortunately, we didn't get hurt.

Re: How Was Your Day?
I had to stay very late last night to screen footage for shit brained ad sales people. I don't know if people can tell here but I generally start checking the forums around 6am eastern when I get into work. Needless to say, I was still there last night with these people (who do not understand that video footage is real time) until around midnight (when it finally hit them that the three day shoot had almost twenty hours of raw footage). So yeah I worked from 6am to midnight. Then my department found the closest bar and pounded shots for our sorrow.

A wasp stung me, and since I didn't see what got me at first, I had one of my mild panic attacks and immediately assumed that it was a redback (Australia's answer to the black widow, but less deadly).

Re: How Was Your Day?
Why does all the wildlife in Australia seem to want to exterminate humans?
My day is going to suck. In addition to working by myself all day, I'm trying to help this one particular person get a project completed. Basically I've been dealing with them for a week now and all of the sudden she starts calling saying that she needs for me to get all this work done for her but she has nothing set up for me to do yet. So she's going to come in last minute and slam me with work.
As I type there's someone else in my store who's being a fucking nut, asking me questions five hundred times and then screaming over me when I answer. So I'm as far away from her as possible and I'm just yessing her to death in hopes she'll go away.

It was okay, because I was asleep all day. Catching up on missed sleep is one of my favourite things to do.

Re: How Was Your Day?
Just started a collection of toy vans (small 1970s American ones and a big 1960s Ford Econoline customized by the seller) to go with my other plastic crap/metal crap. The white Chevy with no windows (like my own TRUE and HONEST van) was not for sale and was in the toy store owner's personal collection, looked at and shopped a little ar a bazaar in a pretty much unsellable mall space with my sweetbolt and had lunch with her in the food court, and resisted the opportunity to chuckle when we passed the vidya lounge where someone was playing a Sonic game. Drove home in the rain with an 8-track tape of Bob Welch's "French Kiss" album playing in the van, and we are alone in the quad apartment now (my sweetbolt is sleeping now, while I'm on the internet)

Re: How Was Your Day?
Today was rather interesting. My sister and I went to McDonald's for breakfast and I was surprised how much fancier the place looked. Since I got to work early, I decided to check expiration dates in the drink aisle and found a bunch of expired items (one variety of fruit juice had cans that expired in August). After checking expiration dates in produce, I got to stock containers of dried fruit and nuts, which was something I'd never done before. The weirdest part had to be accompanying a customer's daughter to the restroom and covering the automatic flusher sensor in the stall (the customer was her father and she doesn't like the automatic flushers that much), but I didn't mind that too much. Afterward she showed me a pair of safety glasses she got and they looked cute.
I also stocked raspberries, blood oranges, blackberries, bagged broccoli, and asparagus. I would've stocked persimmons and filberts too if we had more of them. I also saw darkhorse816's dad.
Most of the mangoes we have in stock come from Peru, but I found one from Mexico, and since my coworkers tell me Mexican mangoes are the best, I decided to buy it.

I watched this old MST3K, "Superdome" from the public access years over at KTMA:

I also waxed my face, and gave one of my dolls new makeup.

Re: How Was Your Day?
Shitty. Got insulted by some people at Goodwill (sweetbolt and I went to look at music and old stereos) who saw me with my sweetbolt and said out loud that "the only way I could ever score is with that hambeast over there", and ridiculed both my beat-up Jimi Hendrix T-shirt and my van, the hambeast comment referring to my sweetbolt, who is a plus-sized Native American woman whose proportions run in her family. We both got our feelings hurt and were holding each other crying for a while. I was bullied perhaps as much as CWC was when I was a kid, and well into my early twenties by the same people, so that hurt.
