job and all but its so unpredictable, you can't depend on it as a source of income. Unless of course your on pension. I was happy when my other job sent me a invitation to return March 1st-May15th. I'll do 3 shifts at one job and 3 at the other. The object of the exercise is to work as much as I can until work stops and then open up a ei claim. It takes 6-8 weeks to get the first cheque in but once its in I can put the claim to sleep, so to speak (September) and reactivate it in the Spring next year (no waiting) until my pension is activated. That's why receiving the the invitation yesterday is so important.
I began Book #2 "Dreams if Eagles"/Eagles series by William W. Johnstone January 20th and I'm going to finish reading the book in the next 2-3 days. Just about 3 weeks. I don't know whats going on here. Normally when I read a science fiction book, it can take me 2-3 months to finish. At any rate, I like reading westerns.
It felt like a Spring time day, late March heading into work yesterday. We're getting some crazy good weather lately. Anyway, that's all today.

As I went into work yesterday
morning a little tired, but feeling good about the day ahead. Work went along well. I was happy feeling productive and logged off and headed home. Coming into the apartment forty minutes later the phone rang as soon as I barely hung up my coat. The supervisor said my shifts for today and Friday are cancelled. The client has decided to scale back the project to evening calling as projects across the board are closing down, with no work as far as I know, for next week. So I got 2 days off and the weekend.
I got on the phone and called about another job and spoke with somebody there about coming in for a face to face meeting. I said I need to consult with someone else first but I'd call back today, and I will. It's telemarketing but there's no cold calling and its for the same pay. The hours are 5-9. So I'm going to call this afternoon and see if I can go in Friday, and if I get hired on do that 4 days and the other job on the weekends and have my Friday nights off. At least this morning I can sleep in so that's a good thing. Anyway, that's all for now.

I was out of here
about noon earlier to run down to the bank and in at the other job to give them a deposit form.
I'm about ready to head out of here for lodge in about an hour. I also had a bit of a cat nap after I did my banking and I'm out of here in about 45 minutes. I have well built agenda, should be a great night.
Then I'm up and at er at 9am tomorrow for 6.5 hours and hustling out of there at 5:30 to get to the inbound call centre job. At least for that one I'm just job shadowing. That's another 6.5 hours for a total of 13 hours. Including the commute that's about 14.5 hours. on my way home, I'll probably pass out at Clareview. Anyway, that's all for now.
