Fuck her
I talked to Cherie tonight and found out the real reason she dumped me. She says she broke up with me because I didn’t get along with her family. To be honest, I don’t like her mom or her brother. I think they’re both lazy mooches who are taking advantage of her, and she doesn’t know how to say no to anyone. I guess that’s why, at 26 years of age she’s still living with her mother and brother, and doing everything they say. Really though, I don’t see how it’s my fault I didn’t get along with her family. Her mom and brother decided they didn’t like me before they even met me. And even when I tried to be nice to them it didn’t seem to matter. They clearly didn’t want me at their house, and didn’t want us together. Whatever, if she’s going to break up with me after being together for 2.5 years, just because her family doesn’t like me than fuck her.
I also found out tonight that she’s now dating some other guy. I have no idea who he is. She says she wasn’t cheating on me, but I’m not sure if I believe her. Whoever he is he tried to chase me down the highway in his piece of shit car. I went down to BK to talk to Cherie, and he was there to pick her up. So now, because I went to Burger King to see her she said I was stalking her, and if I come by there again she might lose her job and then she’s going to “get me”. Whatever the fuck that means. If you want to be a fucking lifer at Burger King go ahead. I have no intention of getting you fired. So I’m pretty pissed off right now, but at least I know the truth.
Random lyrics of the moment: Staind – Waste
Fuck them!!!
And fuck her!!!
And fuck him!!!
And fuck you!!!
I know they’re taken completely out of context, but they seem fitting right now.

A few developments
There have been a few developments in my search for a job since I last posted. Right now I’m working at Nick and Willy’s Pizza until I find something else. Yesterday my mom was at work at Wal-Mart and there was a phone call for her. One of the guys I used to work with at Wal-Mart, who I told that my mom works days in the toy department, called to talk to my mom so he could get a hold of me. Apparently he asked my mom if I was working because he has some work that needs doing around his house, and thought I might be interested. I haven’t talked to him yet because I was at work today, and he was probably sleeping since he works graveyard, but that sounds like it might be a good way to make some extra money. I have no idea what it is he wants done though.
Also last night, my mom was talking to John at Wal-Mart. He’s the night manager. He asked my mom if I was working yet too. She told him I was, but it was only minimum wage. He told her that the guy who stocks shelves in the shoe department is leaving Wal-Mart and he was asked to recommend someone to fill the position. John told my mom that he thought of me right away. Anyways, he wanted to know if I was interested. I called Wal-Mart last night and told him I was interested. If John puts my name forward as his recommendation than I’m pretty sure they’ll hire me. He said I might have to do an interview. I guess that’s because the shoe department is contracted out, and is separate from the rest of the shelf stockers. Anyways, I’m pretty excited about that. Although Wal-Mart isn’t the greatest job in the world, I liked working there. Where I’m working now is ok, but it’s not something I could see myself doing for very long. I just have to wait a couple days to see what happens.

Great Song
I don’t have much time to post right now, I have to get some sleep, but I just wanted to say that this is one of the greatest songs ever. I heard it on the radio a couple times today. These lyrics are awesome.
Welcome To My Life by Simple Plan
Do you ever feel like breaking down?
Do you ever feel out of place?
Like somehow you just don’t belong
And no one understands youDo you ever want to run away?
Do you lock yourself in your room?
With the radio on turned up so loud
That no one hears you screamingNo you don’t know what it’s like
When nothing feels alright
You don’t know what it’s like
To be like meTo be hurt, to feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you’re down
To feel like you’ve been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one’s there to save you
No you don’t know what it’s like
Welcome to my lifeDo you wanna be somebody else?
Are you sick of feeling so left out?
Are you desperate to find something more
Before your life is over?Are you stuck inside a world you hate?
Are you sick of everyone around?
With their big fake smiles and stupid lies
While deep inside you’re bleedingNo you don’t know what it’s like
When nothing feels alright
You don’t know what it’s like
To be like meTo be hurt, to feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you’re down
To feel like you’ve been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one’s there to save you
No you don’t know what it’s like
Welcome to my lifeNo one ever lied straight to your face
And no one ever stabbed you in the back
You might think I’m happy
But I’m not gonna be ok
Everybody always gave you what you wanted
You never had to work
It was always there
You don’t know what it’s like
What it’s likeTo be hurt, to feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you’re down
To feel like you’ve been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one’s there to save you
No you don’t know what it’s like (what it’s like)To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked
When you’re down
To feel like you’ve been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one’s there to save you
No you don’t know what it’s like
Welcome to my lifeWelcome to my life
Welcome to my life

Another Style
After my last post I got an idea for another style. I call this one Canada4Life. 
I’ve added it to the menu, so check it out. There are more to come soon. Now that I have this set up it doesn’t take long to make a style.
Well, I’m off to bed. I have two job interviews tomorrow, and I could use some sleep.

Style changer
If you look in the right column of this page you’ll see something new. I added a select box so you can change the style of the page. So far I only have two styles, blue and white, but I’ll probably add more eventually. I actually think I like the white style more.
I also made some changes so that all the pages of the site (about me, contact me, links, etc.) have the left menu with links to all the blog entries. I changed some file names too so if you get any error messages that’s probably why. You can let me know about any errors by using the contact me page or by adding a comment in the blog.
Talk to you all later.

Two jobs?
I got a job, maybe two. The first place I applied to, Nick and Willy’s Take and Bake Pizza, called me back yesterday. I’m supposed to start work on Wednesday. I’ll only be making $8.25/hr to start, and I could end up doing some assistant manager stuff. I’d rather work at Conroy Exteriors, but I didn’t want to say no to the guy from the pizza place because at least it’s something for now. This morning I got another phone call from Conroy Exteriors. I was selected to come in for a working interview. The lady who interviewed me told me all about this before. I go in and work for a couple hours with pay, and they get to see how I work. The idea is they get to meet me and I get to meet them, and see what the job’s like. Then they decide if they want to hire me. I’m guessing that unless I screw something up pretty bad at the working interview they’ll hire me. Then my only problem is telling the pizza place that I can’t work there because I found something else. I hope the guy understands that I want to take the job that pays more money. Plus I think I’ll like this job better. I don’t know, maybe I’m getting too excited about it. I haven’t been hired yet. I’m also wondering what happened at Subway. Maybe the manager decided to hire someone else, but I have a sneeking suspicion that she called Burger King for a reference and someone said something that made her decide not to hire me. Oh well.
I posted in my blog before about filing a complaint about BK with the labour board. Haven’t changed my mind, just put it on hold for now. I’m more concerned with getting a job right now, and I have 6 months from the day I quit to file a complaint.

Valid RSS
I found out that the RSS feed I made wasn’t outputting valid code so I fixed it. I think it’s still going to work the same way. It still works fine for me in Firefox’s bookmarks, but if anyone has any problems let me know.
I think my job search is going pretty good. I had an interview at Subway the other day, and I was supposed to hear back either way sometime today, but never heard anything. I guess I didn’t get the job. Anyways, I got two callbacks yesterday to set up interviews. I did one interview today, and I think it went really well. Sounds like a great place to work too. It’s at Conroy Exteriors. The position I applied for is wearhouse shipper/receiver. If they hire me I’ll be doing sheet metal work and driving their trucks to deliver stuff to their job sites, among other things. Like I said, I think the interview went really well, hopefully I get hired. I have another interview on Tuesday at The Brick. I’d be working for their rent-to-own division delivering and setting up furniture I believe. I’ll keep you all posted on how the interviews go.

Who are you people?
I was just looking at the stats for this website and they show that I’ve had 587 unique visitors so far this month. So who are you people? I only know, for sure, of two people who visit this site regularly besides me. Don’t be shy people. I coded a nice little commenting system just for you. So if you have anything to say about my posts in this blog feel free to post it. Or you could at least post a comment for this one entry and tell me who you are, and how you found this site.
I found a few other interesting things while looking at my stats:
People from 34 different countries have visited (Ok, I find this hard to believe, but that’s what the stats show.)
The number one browser used by my visitors is Firefox at 75.4%
Top search terms that found this page are “motorolav220 ringtones” and “Radio Shack Sucks”.

Job Hunt
So far my job hunt hasn’t been very successful. I spent most of this morning looking through classifieds in the newspaper and online. I plan on getting out early tomorrow to drop off resumes at several places. I’ve only delivered one resume so far, and the job didn’t sound too promising. It sounded like I had a very good chance of getting hired, but it’d probably only be part time, with a chance of becoming full time. The owner seemed like a nice guy though, and I wouldn’t mind working for him if it turned out to be full time. He’s not sure if I’d get full time because the place is just opening and he’s not sure how busy they’ll be. He said that if they get really busy, or if some other people he’s already hired don’t pan out I’d have a better chance of getting full time hours.
Did I mention before that my mom works at Wal-Mart? Anyways, she works part time days/evenings at Wal-Mart, and was talking to some people there about them laying off people on nights. It sounds like the woman who did the interviews for those of us who were laid off was pretty upset that they let us go. And another guy who my mom talked to said he was surprised they let me go because he thought I was a good hard worker “just like my mom”. Apparently he figures they’re going to change their minds about letting people go and start calling people back within a week. I’m not going to hold my breath. I’d like to go back to work there, but I really doubt they’d be calling us back anytime soon.
I was reading a news story about the controversy brewing between China and Japan lately and I thought this was hilarious: “The United States weighed in on the matter Tuesday, saying that is important for China and Japan to solve disputes peacefully.” What the hell does the United States know about settling disputes peacefully?
