Most of the time

Friday the 13th works out pretty good for me, not that I'm superstitious or anything. Yesterday, I didn't even know until it was mentioned on Coast that yesterday was Friday the 13th. So I'm buying my 6/49 ticket as usual and after I get off the train at Corona on a beautiful Sunny mid September day, I'm walking over to the Baker Centre. I got my extra strength Motrin and made it to work with half an hour to spare. Notice I never mention where I work.

I was shocked to see my hours, or lack there of. I got 2 shifts next week. I talked to the boss and asked what happened to the project that was supposed to go to at least the end of September. He said we're launching it September 23rd. Next Monday. Even then its part time but we've got another project for October. In other words from here on in I'm working part time and that translates into not making any money. If I'm  not making money, I'm not happy. So he said I might be able to get in on the training for next Thursday, which would include test calls for Friday. 

I'm not a quitter at anything I do. I never give up. I don't give up on my marriage or compromise my marriage. I don't give up on my friends or colleagues even if they let me down. I won't give up on my Lodge even if they wont support me. I don't give up on anything I do. Some dreams may get put on hold but I never give up.

Yet something's got to give here. I need some hours and I'm not getting them at my current place of employment. So after talking to the boss of this other company I emailed my resume. I asked if I could follow up and he said next week. Hopefully I can do 4 hours at 1 place and 4 hours at the other.

So yesterday at work, things are going along ok. I have no dental pain. I actually had a decent shift and I checked in on the scores of the CFL game between Hamilton/Calgary. I'm having a good night for what we had to work with. So after work I thought maybe I had a bit of time to check in at Audrey's and Trevor was just cashing out. So he looked at me and through the doors he said "Sorry Jim." I said I'd come back tomorrow. So up until Clareview, everything is fine. Then the bus gets re routed and on 137th the city has got all the roads and everything blocked off to just 1 or two  lanes. They're paving and I don't know how I'm going to get to work this morning. Anyway, that's all for now. More latter..
