Gotta go smoke now and mull this over. You know, it's not that I don't like my work, 'cause I like my work a lot - but I LOATHE places like intel. I could do this job at a small design house all day long and be happy as all hell, but those places don't need my skills right now. But Intel does. *AAAARRRGGHHH*

Queenie:
Wax I'm so depressed, wondering what piece of electronics will get pawned today for dinner money... next week you know it will be Fat City and we'll be eating out every night. But I can't live like this anymore! I need some stability, but I don't want to have to get an onsite job. I don't know what to do. Give me some good advice, Wax.

Queenie:
Ugh. Spoke to one of my freelance agents. "I can get you something at Nike" she says. The situation is grim.

Chewing Wax:
I don't know what to say. I suck at giving advice.

Chewing Wax:
How bad can Nike be?

Queenie:
Ever seen that commercial for monster.com with the guy that gets his new business cards and sniffs them? I wish I could be like that guy.

Queenie:
Places like Nike are very bad. That sort of HTML production is just soul sucking. With an hour commute.
(Wed Feb 14, 2001 - 3:16:30 pm)

Queenie:
Even the pay isn't what it used to be. I can remember a year ago being told that a Nike job paid $30 an hour. It's gone down since then 'cause I haven't really learned any new skills.

Chewing Wax:
I bought some new Nike running shoes and they nearly broke my knees. They're skimping on the padding too. Fucking assholes.
(Wed Feb 14, 2001 - 3:21:02 pm)

Queenie:
Hey, don't blame them! Blame the ten year old who put your shoes together, who obviously did a shoddy job!

Chewing Wax:
I blaim everyone

Queenie:
Me too.

Queenie:
My brother says that having a family gives him a sense of purpose so he's glad to make sacrifices. Now I feel like an asshole.

Chewing Wax:
Why should you make the sacrifise? Send your adorable daughter off to Nike to make shoes. She'll fit right in.
(Wed Feb 14, 2001 - 3:38:27 pm)

Queenie:
Heh. There ya go! Let her pull her own weight for a change!

Chewing Wax:
Could be worse. Could be medical experiments.
(Wed Feb 14, 2001 - 3:45:08 pm)

Queenie:
True.

Queenie:
I am a man. Job or no job, you can't tell me that I'm not.
(Wed Feb 14, 2001 - 3:59:17 pm)

Chewing Wax:
Straight up

Queenie:
Everybody say wham bam.
(Wed Feb 14, 2001 - 4:00:53 pm)

Queenie:
Enjoy what you do! Say one, two, three rap, c'mon everybody don't need this crap!
(Wed Feb 14, 2001 - 4:01:19 pm)

Chewing Wax:
Still, I'm going to make a lot of money and get me a Porsche 911 Turbo. That's all I really want. And a boat. And a huge wine cellar. And a harem.

Queenie:
Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right...
(Wed Feb 14, 2001 - 4:08:52 pm)

Chewing Wax:
I'm thinking of going to Hollywood and becoming a famous movie actor. That's a pretty good way to make cash money.
(Wed Feb 14, 2001 - 4:09:17 pm)

Chewing Wax:
I've been told I have, "the look".
(Wed Feb 14, 2001 - 4:09:45 pm)

Queenie:
I'd cast you.
(Wed Feb 14, 2001 - 4:17:10 pm)

Chewing Wax:
I appreciate that

Good grief. Is it really that difficult of a decision to get a job and become a productive member of society?
(Wed Feb 14, 2001 - 4:45:22 pm)

Queenie:
It sure is, especially when one is capable of much more.
(Wed Feb 14, 2001 - 5:01:52 pm)

Queenie:
But to clarify: I HAVE a job. What we're talking about here is getting a longer term contract at another company.
(Wed Feb 14, 2001 - 5:02:50 pm)

Queenie:
Another company doing production work. Wageslave stuff.
(Wed Feb 14, 2001 - 5:03:27 pm)

Queenie:
Gonna sell my laptop. I mean really I've NEVER used it - not once! It's just a status symbol. Useless to me.

I feel any further comment would be the equivalent of poking at an open wound. Good day all.
